Life Isn't What It Seems Nor Is It Otherwise

About Me

Scored and wrote songs with Rahzel, Dead Prez's M1, Doc and Khaliyl for upcoming feature film "On The One." Composed 11 new songs for Charles Randolph Wright's off Broadway 'play with music' "Blue", starrring Phylicia Rashaad. Hendryx is a Grammy nominee for "Rock This House" featuring Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones and an Emmy nominee for Disney's "Children of the World." In her previous 'incarnation' she was a member of Patti LaBelle & the Bluesbelles who transformed into Labelle, the ground breaking glam funk rock band of the 70s, who racked up three gold albums and No.1 hit with "Lady Marmalade (Voulez Vous Coucher Avec Moi Ce Soir?)" As a solo artist she achieved many Top ten hits including Bustin' Out, Transformation, Why Should Cry? and collaborations with Prince, Peter Gabriel, Material and Talking Heads. Currently putting all her experience and influences in one hat as writer, producer, performer and record company exec. Who'd have thought it?
