I ran across Melanie Fiona by word of mouth. I saw a few of her photos on my favorite gossip website so I decided to see who she was and what she did. The first song I listen to was 'Give it to me right' which instantly had me dancing in my seat. The beat first of all is so soulful but with a spice of jazz with a touch of the electric guitar! Next song, 'Somebody come get me' which is an has an island touch, it feels like something I would listen to while sitting on a beach sipping a tropical drink. In the song, Melanie is singing about someone coming to get her before she kills her boyfriend because he is cheating with the girl down the street. How many of us women can relate to that?? I know I can!! The next song I played was 'Magic' which had me reminiscing the good times I had in past relationships.
Melanie Fiona, born Melanie Hall, to guyanese immigrant parents, grew up in the inner city of Toronto, Canada. Melanie Fiona says she "Always knew music was her passion." Melanie Fiona opened for Kanye West during his European Tour in '08, which is amazing considering she hasn't released an album yet. Melanie's album The Bridge is slated to be released on Sept.22,09 but I'll try to confirm that date.
All in all I reallllllly love her music! Every song I listened to sounded different but they all showcase her voice in the BEST way. Im very excited to hear what her album is packed with! Much Success to you Melanie Fiona!
