Imagine a voice that has the power to lead the rap industry towards the path of righteousness or down the road of ruin. Imagine a NEW artist who head-lined with Hip Hop’s finest for over 10 years. Since 1989, this artist has opened for old school vets such as Will Smith, Heavy D, Kool Moe Dee, Salt ‘n’ Pepa, Whodini and a host of other well known and respected foundation layers. Imagine a FEMALE RAP SINGER who writes her own lyrics, produces tracks and choreographs stage shows that remind us why we have all come to love this art form called “rap”. Who is Candee Reign? Candee Reign is a Hip Hop legend whose love and dedication for music shows through her poetic flow, bass filled tracks, and energetic live performances. In 1994, she was given the opportunity to headline with artists like Scarface, R.Kelly, Too Short, and the late great Roger Troutman. In 1996, she was a finalist in the Motown Town Talent Search and she was chosen to perform for Cleveland, Ohio’s Bicentennial Celebration. REIGN-DROPS Candee Reign’s first single,“This is 4 U”, is one example of her creativity. In 1997,this jazzy tune was made to perform in places Hip Hop is not traditionally heard. This song graced the airwaves in Northeastern, Ohio for three months. However, the song was later pulled out of rotation because of it’s popular demand at local record stores. Rape……… Her second underground single titled, “rape” appeared on the independent compilation album, The Red Tape, released by Soundmind Entertainment. Candee used this song to express not only her everyday struggles but also the struggles of other aspiring artists that have been “raped” by the music industry. BE THAT WHAT YOU CALL IT. HER NAME PREPARES YOU FOR HER SWEET ARRIVAL, BUT WHEN SHE ARRIVES TO REIGN SUPREME ON ANY SET, YOU DISCOVER WHY HER PEEPS IN OHIO CALL HER “THE UNDISPUTED FUNKTRESS”. THIS UNDERGROUND LEGEND CAN BE HEARD ON EAST COAST TRACKS, WEST COAST BEATS, OR INSTRUMENTALS WITH THAT SOUTHERN-FILL THOUGH NOTHING COMPARES TO HER ABILITY TO COMBINE HIP HOP AND FUNK INTO AN ORIGINAL ENSEMBLE. IN JULY 2001, THE HIP HOP POLICE DEPARTMENT WILL SELF RELEASE: “ MY DEBUT (the radio edit)”. THIS SINGLE DEMONSTRATES CANDEE REIGN’S LYRICAL FINESSE AND HOW SHE EXPRESSES HERSELF THROUGH RHYME. TO FIND HER YOU MUST KNOW THE FORECAST.
