R&B and soul recording artist Ke’Shay Love has a smile that lights the room. Ke’Shay recently released the hit single Breathless. The success of Breathless surprised Ke’Shay, “It is very overwhelming. I can say I’m very, very blessed. I didn’t expect it to do what it’s been doing.” I listened to all of Ke’Shay Love’s music, and I think there’s a hint of hip hop to the song Boyz All Pause. Ke’Shay explained that she has hip hop in her background: “I can go each way. I think the hip hop portion brings a little bit more energy, the same way the pop does. Vocally, R&B and soul is where I am, but I still have that energy for the pop music and the hip hop music.” Like many vocalists, Ke’Shay Love started singing in church. “The choir is a platform for children to really get a boost in singing, because you have all the loving. No one criticized.” As she got older, Ke’Shay moved into hip hop bands. She got back into singing when she started hanging around singers. They heard me sing and said, “What are you doing?” So, Ke’Shay Love started taking lessons. “I did take voice and music theory, and I tried to learn how to play the piano.” Then, she started laughing, “I tried. It did not work. I can’t get that left-hand thing going.” She’s also had a few vocal coaches. Ke’Shay advises, “I always say that for any singer, even if you sing well, learning more is never a bad thing. You always can perfect your craft. That’s how I’ve gotten better and better over the years.” Plus, you don’t want to destroy your voice. Ke’Shay likes to collaborate with male singers, just to get the insight...
