By the time she graduated, Reyez was writing songs that expressed her emotions, playing in Toronto clubs, and busking on the streets. However, after a traumatic breakup with her first serious boyfriend when she was 17, she poured her heartache into her music when her sympathetic music teacher allowed her to spend most of her school days at the piano. Before she became serious about music, she was a committed dance student, and studied hip-hop dance from junior high into high school.
