| Submission declined on 11 December 2024 by Samoht27 (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

Biography
[edit]Early life
[edit]Bava was born in Boston to a Haitian American family. She began playing piano as a child, hence –after graduating at Harvard University– she moved to Los Angeles to pursue her passion for music.
Career
[edit]Bava released her debut EP "Imitate" in July 2023. On the creation of her single "I Wish", Bava explained I was so drained by a past relationship. I felt like my entire identity was wrapped up in theirs; that when people thought of me, they thought of us. I wanted to express that frustration somehow and headed to the piano to try.
