Dama was always in there.
Raised in rural Missouri, Jessica Harper developed her craft at Michigan’s Interlochen Arts Academy before studying Popular Music at the University of Southern California’s Thornton School of Music.
After releasing early work under her own name, she created Dama Blake: bolder, darker, and more dangerous. A persona built to hold an entire visual and musical world—and to turn desire, heartbreak, power, and self-discovery into theatrical pop.
Her debut EP Lilith was shaped with a close circle of collaborators, including artist and producer Duvol. “Mr. Right” opens the next chapter: more confident, more provocative, and unmistakably her own.
