Syleena Johnson
With a voice that is wise beyond her years and a set of self penned songs that have that unmistakable lived in feel of classics, Syleena Johnson takes you back to the day when music came from the heart.
An incredible singer/songwriter, Syleena's artistry will set the new standard
in R&B music. The 24 year-old self-described "product of the radio"
hails from the Chicago suburb of Harvey, IL. While heavily influenced by airwave
staples Tina Turner and Chaka Khan, Syleena also credits her father, veteran
bluesman Syl Johnson, with helping to shape the unique vocal sound that belies
her age. A musical storyteller who transcends industry fads, Syleena's ability
to deliver a sensual ballads and mid-tempo dance grooves is overwhelming in
her electrifying live performances.
When brought to the attention of multi-platinum phenomenon and labelmate,
R. Kelly, he immediately recognized Syleena's unbridled talent and penned
the debut single "I Am Your Woman" specifically for her. His impeccable
arrangement and production provide an ideal vehicle to establish Syleena's
distinctive voice as the rightful heir to the airwaves. "I Am Your Woman"
is just the first step in the emotional journey into passion, betrayal &
redemption that is her debut album, Chapter 1: Love, Pain & Forgiveness.
