Intelligent, Beautiful, Determined and Unstoppable are only a few words that describe this young Singer/Song Writer/Orator and Poet. Whether she is hosting a show or singing at one, her unrefined talent is undeniable!!!
ShaRifa was born in Brooklyn, New York, and lived in Belize, Central America for a short part of her life. Her early ambitions included singing, dancing, and writing poetry. As a child she always had a passion for two things, music and talking to people. Never one day questioning what she would become, because she always told people...she'd be "the next Oprah or a star"!
In the 5th grade, where she attended P.S 191, Sharifa had her own talk show celebrating African Americans Past and Present. It was then that she discovered her passion for the microphone. She loved being on stage, and at the tender age of 11 she commanded the stage effortlessly. Always involved in school and church choirs, it was in the 7th grade that she and several other girls were chosen to sing with Brandy, at New Yorks famous Waldorf Astoria.
As Sharifa got older she transcended her poetry writing into song writing and started to pursue her music career more heavily. Singing any where she had the opportunity.
Currently, Sharifa T. is in the studio working on new music, writing songs and doing background for other artist, and also taking Vocal Training with suprstar vocal coach Craig Derry. When she isn't pursuing her music she is also a student at Penn State University in pursuit of a Bachelors degree in Broadcast Journalism.
