This is my first pick of my new segment of this blog entitled “Artist of the week”
You may have seen me post some blogs about this young woman or you may be familiar with her music (“I want u 2″, “Good girls”) or may have seen her on 106&PARK for wild out Wednesday, you may have seen her performing. If you’re new to the bus, don’t hesitate to put your money in the machine and hop on the ride to her journey of success and completing her dreams that she damn well worked hard for. Not only is she an amazing singer, she’s an energetic performer and her heart is bigger than anyone I’ve ever came across with. If you don’t know the name by now, let me introduce you to Shadina Bettis. Also known as Shadina. She is a rising star hailing from Baltimore, Maryland.
Not only does she have the good graces of her mother’s looks and charm, she also has a voice just like hers. Well, being born into the good graces, one would not expect otherwise. Shadina is already being compared as the next big thing and surely, she has the vocals and capabilities to become one of them. She is definitely someone you should be looking out for in the future. With her hard work and dedication to become one of the most popular indie artists worldwide says a lot about the average person out there, never give up your dreams. No matter how old or young.
Shadina’s debut album entitled “Born 4 this” under her established label LMLD (Like Mother Like Daughter music group)/Embark records is already having the streets wanting more of this beautiful songstress. The seventeen track disk includes her hit singles “I want u 2″ and “Good girls” which features Chubb Rock. The album signifies new age and old school music with various contrasts of different genres (Funk, R&B, Pop, Soul). It’s certainly something for the people. From her meaningful lyrics to her sultry voice, you will fall in love with Ms. Shadina and even more when you see how wonderful of a person she is.
Check her out below!
Also, be on the look out for “Street Grind” co-starring Shadina herself! The television competition will make it’s debut sometime in June on your local T.V. station. I’ll update the times and what not.
