The music game is ready for a new tune, and that tune belongs to the voice of 22- year old Tokiko George. Hailing from the prestigious Prince George County, Tokiko has sang for the likes of Entertainment pioneer P. Diddy upon being one of 12 girls to enter his house for MTV's 2005 hit show Making the Band, while also lending her voice on tracks for southern rap star David Banner's latest album. Growing up however, Tokiko was not exactly sure in which direction her life was headed. Though being raised singing in her neighborhood church choir, her career choices underwent various modifications. Nevertheless, it wasn't until a move to California and a run in with then up- and coming producer J Fenix that Tokiko realized where her true passion resided. "He[Fenix] made me excited about pursing singing as a career," she states. Additionally, California is also host to Tokiko's first solo performance at the Blues Bar in which she gave an astonishing new meaning to Etta James classic "The good, the bad, the hurt." Tokiko's solo debut project, which is currently in the works, lends an ear to people who are seeking a distinguished sound from the ordinary, a sound combining the genres of pop and r&b. With songs such as "Simply the Best," which sheds light on her hidden sensual side, to "Spoiled," an explanation of her life growing up in P.G. County while being catered to by family, to her self- proclaimed breakthrough single "Fancy Pants," which brings back an old- school Prince vibe, Tokiko will definitely have you wondering, "Where has this girl been all this time?"
