Details:
TA-TA, the explosively creative M.C. from Plainfield, NJ, is gaining national recognition and generating an electrifying buzz in the music industry. In a short time, TA-TA has won the John Lennon Songwriting Contest for "Everybody Wanna Be Somebody", the first ever Queen Latifah Award for Hip-Hop by performing "Gotta Let 'em Know" and the Best Rap Album from Just Plain Folks, the largest indie awards.

TA-TA's debut album, "Never Forget", merges her unique Rap style with Pop and R&B creating a fun CD with serious undertones.

TA-TA's interest in music started at age 5 when she began listening to her favorite Pop and R&B singers, Whitney Houston, Regina Belle and Cheryl Riley. TA-TA's interest in Hip-Hop was sparked during an after-school program when male rappers took the stage and, with their lyrics, were disrespectful of women. TA-TA quickly wrote her own set of lyrics, countering their rhymes, and with her impromptu performance, brought the house down impressing both male and female classmates. Since then, TA-TA's extensive stage and television experience has included countless performances in NY, NJ and PA clubs and college campuses including a performance as a featured performer at an after Grammy party (The Bank) and, more recently, standing room only performances at the Soul Café, The Groove and The Stone Pony. She has shared the stage with, among others, Wu Tang Clan and Biz Markie.

TA-TA's debut CD includes a collaboration with Smooth Bee, of Nice 'n Smooth, and features musicians who have performed and recorded with Barry White, The Police, David Bowie, Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones and more. Her second CD, "My Last Cry", is due out in late 2004.

You can also find TA-TA on "Jersey Jams, Jersey Cares" (www.cdbaby.com/jerseyjams) performing a Hip-Hop version of Rudyard Kipling's "If". Proceeds from the sale of "Jersey Jams, Jersey Cares" goes towards music scholarships for the children of 9/11.
