Jane Doe has also appeared in several artists videos & songs from the New Orleans metropolitan area but it wasn’t until 2012 that her career began to take off.
In 2012 she met spoken word/hip-hip artist/poet/author Tony Wilson while working at a local coffee shop/event venue. They began writing poetry & music together & Mr. Wilson asked her to join his hip-hop group & entertainment company Team Vision. She joined & released several short videos & films with the group. She performed & traveled with them heavily in 2014. The group released their 1st mixtape entitled “8 Faces” which was released via dat piff. The group released 3 singles & videos “Take that From me”, “H.A.T.E.R.S.”, and “Pac Heat”. The group received lots of attention on the internet, social media & the local music scene. But the group decided to part ways & continue with their own solo careers.
After the group disbanded she focused more on acting. She landed background roles in the hit TV series “Treme”, NCIS New Orleans & Queen Sugar.
She often calls herself a “Rich Hipster” which simply means “Rich at heart & Rich in art”. Rich Hipster is a brand & record label started by Grammy Award winning RnB/Soul/Jazz singer Chrisette Michele. Chrisette mentored Jane in Artist development, branding & marketing for an entire year. Chrisette’s development has helped her career even further. She attributes much of her success to the foundation Chrisette taught her about the music business.
