Album Notes

Selahchick is like James Taylor going for a walk with Nina Simone down in SoHo looking for the herbman, who just so happens to be Erykah Badu. She takes them soaring on the wings of hip hop, while all humming a Billie Holiday number. I don't know, that's just how I feel about my music and myself. I am an entre-po-negro and have been since conception. As the second-born child of two Capricorn parents, I was meant to live for music, love, and free enterprise. My style musically is jazz based. I attended Central State University, of Wilberforce, Ohio as a Jazz Vocal performance major and English minor. I have traveled and performed with a number of ensembles including a steel pan group and a performing arts ensemble called the Black Oak project. My musical experience includes leading several jazz ensembles, opening for Goodie M.O.B., and performing internationally as a solo artist and with the R&B/Soul band Ya'mama'nym. I am looking to do background vocals and songwriting. If anyone is looking to write or record, I am interested. I have been away from the music scene for over a year now and I am eager to get working again. All collaborations welcome. With melodic blends of soulful, smooth vocals combined with sweet grooves and intoxicating lyrics that inspire you to move , Selahchick is spellbinding. Her songs of love and loss, self-respect, and spiritual healing provoke carthartic change form within. Check out the new songs! The CD release is scheduled for September 7th, 2006
