Nadine " Prada" James

About Me

Don't let her name fool you; this classy young diva was not born in the lap of luxury. Many trials and tribulations have contributed to the foundation of her musical/artistic talents. Nadine grew up in a man’s world...literally. Raised by her father, Nadine was always goal oriented and business savvy. Nadine had found her niche at such a young age it's hard to pin point exactly when her voice was discovered but her father has always said that “I knew she could sing since she was 6yrs old". Being part of a very close family has grounded her; she knows who she is and who she does not want to be. Nadine grew up with 4 sisters and 1 brother in the city of Pickering. Over the years she began to explore an array of melodies that complimented her unique sound listening to various artists like: Mariah Carey, Pat Benitar, Tupac Shakur and Marvin Gay just to name a few of her inspirations. After some real soul searching she could no longer deny the growing hunger that brewed within. It was almost like a super power she kept hidden from the world. Nothing could hold back this god-given gift, not even Nadine herself. Finally the day had come, early 2008 she awoke with a new attitude… “It wasn’t a decision, it was just a reality…it was time”. And with that she took T.O by storm. Nadine hit the studio and within 2 months she had 4 tracks, 2 major performances; a live on-air radio interview with Sweet Marie and the legendary DJ Carl Allen on 88.1 CKLN (Top GTA radio station) and a feature in Word magazine (October 2008 edition). That’s not all, this is just the beginning. Nadine has also been blessed to work with great producers such as Stevie Young from Wonder Productions, Sunny Diamonds and Mark Dollin. Nadine prides herself on being independent and having no excuses - these qualities have also contributed to her success. Nadine's success will only go further and the world will get to be a part of her history...The Birth of Nadine James.
