The Petersburg, Virginia native, was a Howard University graduate. Her distinct voice is heard on her debut self-titled album released in 1991. Her hit single, “Never Been In Love Before,” peaked at No. 7 on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and spent 17 weeks on the chart overall. During her time as an artist, she collaborated with Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder on several international tours.
