Born in Gastonia, N.C as Franchesca Mitchell, now known as Mizz Skyy. The first 3 years of my
life, I lived with my mother, 5 siblings and grandmother in a 2-bedroom house. Around the age
of 3, I meet my father finally who moved me in, to provide a better lifestyle in Washington D.C.
Understand, he was a single father, raising a little girl the best he knew how. I was his only child,
and a girl – so I had quite a few terrible hair days.





Always having a love for music, my father played a major role as he played drums. He was the
first to discover my talent. Seems everyone on my father side is musically inclined, truly gifted.
Age 8, now in South Carolina living back with my mother, I began to spread my love for music
publicly by singing on the church, community and school choirs. My 5th grade graduation, I had
the honor to perform my first mini cover in which I wrote the year prior. Since a very young age, I
was always so excited to share to my love for music with others around me.


Fast forward moved back to D.C with my father for my 8th grade year. Also, I wanted to
spend more time with him as he had gotten ill and the illness was getting worse. While being
back in D.C, he had me try out for Duke Ellington School of Art to enhance my singing talent.
Unfortunately, I didn’t make it into Duke that year as they felt more development was needed so
I moved back down south to attend school with my siblings. 2009 I lost my father and I want
nothing more than him to know, I haven't given up on my dreams.






Today I have taken my music more serious than ever! Back in January 2018 I signed up for my
first tour show which gave me the platform I needed to introduce people to who I was as an
artist. I went into management with MzClasayEnt. 3 months later. I finally felt like I was building
my team. I released my first single titled "Destined" August 25, 2018. 20k spins in less than a full
year as a new artist was a great feeling for me! Months after my release I landed my first IHeart
Radio interview. Many more radio interviews followed soon after. I was building my own platform
with a team whom I trusted very much.


During that time frame of being under management I learned a lot, gained a lot, and lost a lot.
I've already touched 5 different states (SC, NC, GA, MD, FL), and several cities within my first year
of touring. I must say this road has not been easy by far especially having three kids who look
up to me, but it's definitely been worth the hard work and dedication! I want my kids to know
that anything is possible as long as you work hard to achieve it. Having the support and raw
motivation from others has only made it so much easier to go harder.






2019 I toured and opened for my first major artist who goes by the name "Kamillion" and I was
more than blessed to have the opportunity. It opened many doors and gained me even more
supporters/fans. My focus now is to capitalize off everything I've learned my first year and to
try not and make the same mistakes. Its unfortunate that I am no longer with the team I started
with. Just like any relationship there is always unseen moments that leads to break ups. I wish
no ill will on anyone! I just had to do what was best for me as an artist to reach that next level
in my career.


 We all wish we can stay with people for a lifetime but it's not always in God's plan
to do so. I now have 4 singles out on all major platforms titled "Tables Turn", "Destined", "It's
Christmas", and "Fuck This" and one more on the way. They all have done very well! I can't wait to
see what lies ahead as I further my career in this industry and one day everyone will know who
Mizz Skyy is!
