Early life
Devyn Rose's parents are from Haiti, but her early years were at Mt. Vernon, NY. Her friends called her T6, because of her athletic physique. In an interview in the Entrique Magazine, she claimed the name "Tanya aka T6" was given to her by Dame Grease. Rose mentioned she had a "strict upbringing" with little exposure to music. She discovered her interest in singing while performing in front of her siblings. At school, she was a part of her school choir. She moved to New York City when she was 16 and learnt dancing at the Broadway Dance Center, New York. While she had no formal training in song writing, she started penning poems and lyrics for her songs. Subsequently, she adopted the name Devyn Rose as her stage name.

In March 2013, Maura Johnston described Rose's song "Who Am I" as "it's a hard listen at first, its swirling elements coming together in that odd way, but its charms eventually took me over." The May 2013 issue of HipHopLead.com reviewed Devyn Rose's work and commented that her songs were "a testimony of her struggle and her accomplishments [while] she sings within her range and makes it work to a tee." She also featured in the film Hangman's Noose (2013).
In June 2013, her song "Want it all" was featured on the playlist of radio anchor Nsico Michaels' show on 19jaRadio.
