It is not uncommon to hear a young person described as wiser than her years, but it is not often that one encounters someone for whom the description is so on point.
DeShara Reneé surprises you when she goes from sweet but powerful onstage to shy and introspective offstage. Im not a huge talker. Because Im really shy, I often times allow my music to speak for me.
DeShara Reneé, who began singing and playing piano at age 5, is quickly becoming a music veteran. Despite her timidity, young DeShara Reneé has already built an enviable resume listing collaborations with an impressive group of singers, writers, and producers, including Chaka Kahn and Trackmasters. Her lyrics can be found on movie soundtracks and have been performed by artists such as Red Café and Monifa. And when shes not sharing her talent with other artists, shes opening for major acts like Ludacris and Paul Wall and sharing the stage with artist such as Chris Brown and Ray Cash.
DeShara Reneé takes advantage of all of her experiences. Anyone that I work with, I gain something from. Everyone has a different way of doing something, and Im always trying to learn and take away something from the situation. She is driven by her skill for observation and an ability to channel what she absorbs into her passion for music. DeShara Reneé writes all of her songs, and because she has a remarkable ability to get in touch with not only herself but with others, her repertoire is more varied than one might expect for her age. I write what Im feeling, what Im imagining. I write about issues -- being too skinny, too fat -- love and what Id like it to be, how Id like it to be. I tend to write a lot about me and personal things that Ive gone through and things that I think about. I want you to really get to know me and get to know my heart.
DeShara Reneé doesn't mind sharing herself with an audience. I love other people loving music. Thats the gift that I get, because I can give other people the things that they use in life. She says she uses music as a tool to recognize or to identify with people, and she finds it interesting that music is a way that one can have a voice that can reach millions. With being classically trained and a pianist, DeShara Renee' uses an array of sounds approaches to capture her audience and dazzle them with seduction.
DeShara Reneé is enthusiastic about reaching new audiences due to her affiliation with Richmond, Virginia-based music label Accurate Music Group, which she says is a really great team of people doing a lot of good things. DeShara Reneé became a part of AMG thanks to longtime family friend and label founder D Money, whom she describes as a super neat intelligent guy who knows his business.
Her next step? Being introduced to the world. Being on every radio station I could possibly be ..ing up my album. Getting a lot of people to understand who I am and what kind of artist I am and really grasping DeShara Reneé.
Her first single, "Get to Know Me" is released by Accurate Music Group, managed by Rome-Dog Productions, Jerome "Bigfoot" Brailey,
