070 Shake Bio (Age)
As mentioned above, 070 Shake’s birth name is Danielle Balbuena and she was born in North Bergen, New Jersey, the United States on the 13th of June 1997. Information about Shake’s upbringing is hard to come by; however, it is a detail that will eventually make it to the media light as she continues to remain relevant in the industry.
Shake’s first love was poetry and like most poetry lovers who also have an ear for music, she gravitated towards rap music and in late 2015, she went official with her music career and began recording songs of her own.
She started her career by becoming part of the New Jersey music crew, 070, who got their name from New Jersey’s zip code. She just added the word Shake to the code to get her moniker. 070 Shake began recording her music independently and posting them on SoundCloud and fortunately, she became one of those upcoming rappers who’d come to have the platform to thank for their breakthrough.
She posted songs like “Proud” and “Swervin” but it was the former that caught the fancy of music promoter YesJulz. YesJulz who is also a social media personality slid into her Twitter and requested to be her manager. Gladly, Shake accepted and that would become her first major step to her big break. Subsequently, her songs on SoundCloud began to gain huge traction with the number of streams growing at a fast rate.
Thanks to the Miami-based YesJulz, 070 Shake got the big leap of her career; Julz was able to bring her to the notice of (the president of Kanye’s GOOD Music label) who like Julz was smitten by her work. Julz had played Shake’s songs to the hearing of Pusha T during a fitting session of Kanye’s Yeezy shoe line. Pusha T wasted no time in signing her to GOOD Music record label. Shake would come to join big names like Big Sean, Cyhi The Prynce and Teyana Taylor as part of those signed to the label.
It didn’t take long for 070 Shake to leave her mark on the label. Following the release of her 6-track EP, Glitter (released in March 2018), which was her debut solo effort, she went on to leave an indelible mark on Kanye West’s 2018 album, Ye. 070 Shake featured on tracks like Ghost Town and Violent Crimes, causing a stir among music critics with one critic, Michael Sapanora, going as far as commenting that the two tracks were the “stand out” cuts of the album. Later, the HotNewHipHop added that Ghost Town was the album’s climax.
070 Shake continues to work on her music as well as collaborate with other acts.
