About Black

My story

As the dynamic force behind the stage name 'Black Assets,' I, Ashley Lakayla Yates, am more than a vocalist and singer-songwriter — I am a storyteller of the Black experience. Hailing from the rich cultural tapestry of Baltimore, MD, and rooted in the soulful soil of Itta Bena, Mississippi, my music resonates with the raw essence of Black life in the United States. From the streets of Algiers to the vibrant energy of Taghit and Bechar, my international journey as a recording artist has been a testament to the universal language of soul. Through my platform, The Living Room Social (TLRS), I cultivate spaces where music transcends boundaries, bringing together communities in Maryland and beyond. With over 75 curated shows and a dedicated audience, TLRS is a testament to the power of music to unite, uplift, and inspire. My art is a reflection of my community, my love, and my truth — a melodic memoir of the good, the bad, and the indifferent. As Black Assets, I am not just an artist on the rise; I am a beacon of resilience, creativity, and authenticity. Join me on this journey, as we navigate the rhythms of life together, one soulful note at a time.

I have never felt so connected to music before discovering Black Assets. Their songs resonate with me on a personal level and then when I saw her live show. She had fan for life.
