About

 From Los Angeles Streets to Center Stage 
I am Lana Rey full name Alana Reynolds, though you might know me better by my stage name, Plastiqe Mojo. My journey from a Los Angeles native to the artist I am today has been anything but conventional, filled with challenges that tested my resilience and dreams that pushed me forward against all odds.
Growing Up in the City of Angels 
I was born and raised in Los Angeles, a city where dreams are both made and broken on the same sun-drenched streets. Growing up in this sprawling metropolis shaped me in ways I didn't fully understand until much later. LA gave me my first taste of diversity, creativity, and the relentless pursuit of something bigger than yourself. It was here, amidst the palm trees and the endless hum of traffic, that I first discovered my love for music.
But my teenage years were far from easy. Like many young people, I struggled with body image and the cruelty that can come from peers who don't understand the impact of their words. I developed earlier than most of my classmates, and my big breasts became a target for teasing and unwanted attention. Those years were painful—filled with embarrassment, self-consciousness, and a desire to shrink myself to avoid notice. I remember walking through hallways with my shoulders hunched, wearing oversized clothing, and trying to make myself invisible. The comments and laughter cut deep, leaving scars that took years to heal.
What I didn't realize then was that this difficult period was forging a strength in me that would become the foundation of my artistic identity. The very thing that made me a target would later become part of what made me stand out.
A Brief Chapter in Fashion
After graduating high school, I was discovered by a modeling scout who saw something in me that I was only beginning to recognize in myself. For a short time, I stepped into the world of fashion and modeling. It was a whirlwind experience—photo shoots, runway shows, and a glimpse into an industry that thrives on image and perception. While modeling gave me confidence and taught me how to present myself to the world, I quickly realized it wasn't my true calling. The industry wanted to mold me into their vision, to use my appearance without hearing my voice. I felt like a canvas that others were painting on, rather than the artist creating the masterpiece. That short modeling career, however, was invaluable—it taught me about professionalism, hard work, and the business side of entertainment. Most importantly, it showed me what I didn't want from my life.
Finding My Voice as Plastiqe Mojo 
Music had always been my refuge. As a teenager, when the teasing became too much to bear, I would lose myself in headphones, letting the rhythms and melodies transport me somewhere else. I wrote poetry in secret journals, turning my pain into verses and my dreams into choruses. Those pages became the foundation of my songwriting.
When I decided to leave modeling behind, I made a promise to myself: I would pursue the dream that had lived in my heart since I was a child hiding in her bedroom with a cheap guitar. I would become a music artist—not just someone who looked the part, but someone who created art that resonated with others who felt unseen, unheard, or misunderstood. Creating the persona of Plastiqe Mojo was a transformative moment. The name represents everything I stand for as an artist—"Plastiqe" speaks to the malleable nature of identity, the ability to reshape ourselves and refuse to be defined by others' expectations. "Mojo" captures that intangible magic, the power that comes from embracing who you truly are. Together, they represent my rebirth from the shy, teased teenager into a confident creator unafraid to take up space.
My Music, My Message 
Today, as Plastiqe Mojo, I create music that blends genres and defies easy categorization—much like my own journey. My lyrics draw from the pain of those teenage years, the lessons learned in the fashion industry, and the triumph of finally living authentically. I write for everyone who has ever felt like they didn't fit in, for those who were made to feel ashamed of their bodies, for the dreamers who were told their ambitions were too big.
Every performance, every song, every note is a celebration of survival and self-acceptance. When I step onto a stage now, I don't hunch my shoulders or try to hide. I stand tall, I own my space, and I invite my audience to do the same in their own lives.
Looking Forward 
My dream of becoming a music artist has come true, but this is only the beginning. I am constantly evolving, learning, and pushing the boundaries of what I can create. Los Angeles raised me, hardship shaped me, modeling taught me, and music saved me.
I am Plastiqe Mojo—an artist, a survivor, a dreamer who refused to give up. And I'm just getting started.
Thank you for being part of this journey with me.
