Ke'Ajah "Peachy Key" Cureton

Ke’Ajah Renai Cureton, also known as Peachy Key and Ke-Ke, was born in Flint, Michigan on October 3, 1995. She was the daughter to Rashaunda Craig and Sa-Jur, and father, Demeceo. Rashaunda and Demeceo, along with Aunt Karen and Uncle Richard, raised Ke-Ke in loving care as a village when she moved to Atlanta in 2010.

Ke-Ke graduated from Centennial High School in Roswell, Georgia and then went on to graduate from Georgia Piedmont Technical College.

At the age of eight, Ke-Ke had the desire to become an artist and fashion designer. She had several mannequins and enjoyed doing various hairstyles on them. As she grew older, she became more skilled in styling all kinds of hair, especially when it came to styling dreadlocks and braids.

Ke-Ke was a successful hairstylist and makeup artist. She aspired to get her LLC and become an owner of a hair salon. She had a knack for connecting with people and touching many lives. Besides her many amazing talents, she also was a producer, wrote poetry, loved to draw, and dance. Her laughter was contagious, and she was always the life of the party.

On November 24, 2020 (the day before Thanksgiving), Ke-Ke received the greatest blessing from God, the birth of her son, Maleek, also known as, Maleek the Superstar, and Doodle. Ke-Ke, often joked that she did not want Maleek to come on Thanksgiving Day, because she wanted to enjoy some good Thanksgiving food. Ke-Ke loved her son and made him her first priority. Ke-Ke worked hard to support and care for Maleek, and made sure she raised him to become a respectable young man.

Ke-Ke lived life to the fullest and was a joy to be around. She had a genuine spirit and had a passion for giving positive energy to those around her. She was known for her collection of crystals and candles so her atmosphere was always optimistic. She strongly lived by the motto, F.O.E, Family Over Everything!

Ke-Ke adored her family, as she loved having family and friends around. She was a loving mother, daughter, sister, aunt, niece, cousin, and friend. Her beautiful life, influence, love for trap music, and turning up with her friends will forever remain in the lives of all who knew and loved her………*in the words of Ke-Ke*, PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
