Immigrating to Canada, from Jamaica, at the tender age of four, suffering through the impact of childhood sexual abuse, and living in the child welfare system provided, Ingrid D.Johnson, with a lot of inspiration for writing poems about her journey. These poems would later become her first, published, local, bestselling book in 2005 that would eventually inspire her original songs that she would record and perform live with the help of her band, of over 10 years, The Funky Fresh Crew.
Committed to being an artist that helps to inspire positive social change, in October 2011, Ingrid D.Johnson, was chosen by The Manitoba Women' s Advisory Council and Mentoring Artist' s for Women's Art (MAWA) to be honoured in a government publication: Women in The Arts: Artists Working for Social Change. Thus, confirming, Johnson's, vision and mission for her small production company, In The Closet Productions ( launched September 2009), to be "a voice for the voiceless".
