This project has allowed this singer, songwriter, producer, arranger, and self-taught musician the opportunity to engage the listener in a conversation about life and love, while exposing them to interesting combinations of music. "I call my music Eclectic Soul. Soul music is definitely the foundation or base of my music, but each song is soul viewed through a different lens-there's the hip-hop lens, the rock lens, the jazz lens, the middle-eastern inspired lens, to name a few."
eclectic lady is scheduled for release August 26, 2003. "Don't Let Tha Door Hit'cha," a hip-hop seasoned farewell to a relationship gone bad, along with "Unconditional Love," an ode to her long-time friend MELEE (who also makes a cameo on the song) are featured on the soundtrack, "Head Games," for the Filmworks/Out Da' Box independent film "Angel Bliss," both slated for release this Spring. "Don't Let Tha Door Hit'cha" will also appear on j. nicole's debut. "I'm really excited about my release and the opportunity to be a part of the score and soundtrack for Angel Bliss. Being on the soundtrack has really given me the opportunity to gain exposure to a wide, diverse audience, and I'm really grateful for that. Releasing my own project is a dream come true for me-it's definitely a labor of love."
Business mixed with pleasure is just how j. nicole prefers it, as she not only serves as Melting Pot Entertainment, LLC's first artist, but also co-owns the independent label. "Through the years, I've been approached by many record labels, but they always seemed to want to take control of my writer's credits or my publishing. So instead of having artistic control taken from me, I decided to find like-minded people and take control of my destiny in music. We fully intend to make our dreams a reality, but we're doing it on our terms."
Born, July 9, 1977, this 27-year old Atlanta native has been influenced by music all of her life. Her love of music is what inspired her to learn to play the viola, teach herself to play piano and guitar, and become a songwriter, arranger, and producer. "My musical tastes have always leaned more toward the soul artists of the 60's and 70's like
