Ghislane “Qi Dada” Jean is one half of the husband-and-wife hip-hop duo, Riders Against the Storm. Qi and her spouse moved to Austin, Texas, in 2009. The musical duo has won many awards, including the Austin Music Awards’ Best Hip-Hop/ Rap Group in 2024.
Qi Dada and her partner enjoy hosting events where the community can celebrate life through music and dance. Riders Against the Storm helped create a community-wide event, held once a month, called Body Rock ATX.
When Qi Dada is not performing or hosting, she works as a spiritual advisor and practitioner. Her work uplifts and supports women professionals who have experienced adversity.
As a new Community Champion, Qi Dada will use her platform to raise awareness about the needs of older adults in our community. We presented Qi Dada with a Certificate of Recognition. She also toured our facilities and learned more about the programs we offer to enrich the lives of over 5,000 local homebound adults.
