Tuff Like Iron was born in New York City and is of Caribbean heritage. Her vibration is a true kaleidoscope of cultures, which gives her a unique position as a global musician and songstress in the reggae and dancehall music industry. By the time music came calling, Tuff was already a fixture on the Brooklyn fashion circuit, feverishly churning out wearable affirmations of resilience and self-love to a culturally-aware, yet stylish and conscious following.
