Album Notes

Perhaps one would feel it’s too much of a cliché to say, "Shelita has that rare IT factor or that she is THE NEXT BIG THING!" Guess what? One would be lying if they said she wasn’t! She is a rare songbird with a classic and timeless sweet, sultry sound. Growing up in Houston, Texas her inspirations have stemmed from greats such as Diana Ross, Sade and Whitney Houston. Her melodic voice and sexy stage presence has enabled her to perform and grace such venues as The Blue Note and perform with the world renowned Negro Ensemble Theater Company in New York City, which paved the way for Hall of Fame Legends such as Denzel Washington, Phylicia Rashad and Sydney Poitier. Since the completion of her first EP and modest down south tour in Texas, Louisiana, and Atlanta, this Alternative R&B singer has been working on her album appropriately titled, Sweet Thoughts. Her vulnerability, authenticity and intimate words allow her performances and her music to convey a naked sound, which in return allows her to embrace the artist within, catapulting this IT factor into what critics are raving as the Alternative R&B worlds NEXT BIG THING.
