Kandi Burruss, formerly of the multi-platinum group Xscape, has been all too busy behind the scenes. After reaching such milestones as three Top 10 Hits (Just Kickin It, Understanding, and My Little Secret) as well as a Lady of Soul Award, she has not slowed down. Her successful career as the sultry low-toned voice of the unprecedented group has set the stage for the great solo artist she is today.
Away from the spotlight, Kandi has been writing hits for other artists such as Alicia Keys, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Pink, Faith Evans, NSync, Boyz II Men, and most notably, TLC (No Scrubs) and Destinys Child (Bills, Bills, Bills). Such skill with the pen led Kandi to mark her place in music history by becoming the first female ever to receive the prestigious ASCAP Rhythm and Soul Songwriting Award.
Recently, this nationally and internationally-known singer/songwriter with the signature voice has returned to the studio, not just as a songwriter but as the artist so many fans have grown to miss. Kandi's talent for writing is matched only by her passion to perform and entertain, and her new deal with Upfront Records under the guidance of CEO and Star Maker Devyne Stephens, marks an exciting new chapter in Kandis career.
The growth of her talent is evident in her lead single "I Need", featuring Eightball and MJG. In true Kandi form, her vocal styling and unmistakable songwriting bring to the forefront lifes pleasures and pains in such a way that all who hear it are drawn into her world. With additional album collaborations that include Jagged Edge along with forthcoming appearances on singles from E-40 (U and Dat) and Lil Scrappy,Kandi is destined to make 2006 her most prolific year yet.
Possessing beauty, style, charisma and a gift for entertaining Kandi Burruss is the total package!
