Juanita
New York/New Jersey (BlackNews.com) - The music industry
is buzzing around hot new artist JUANITA. Although not really
new to the scene, she's back on the block and shaking things
up with her velvety voice and magnetic personality.
Living in
a world of bling-bling and thugging, it is refreshing
to see a resurgence of artists bringing back the soul
to music. In a cookie-cutter industry, there are those
artists who will defy categorization and will fight
against the establishment to simply be themselves.
Labeled by industry insiders as alternative or neo-soul,
JUANITA does her own thing and isn't interested in the
latest gimmick or trend. Her wide exposure to all types
of music, ranging from R&B, Soul, Funk, to Jazz, Gospel,
Rock, Pop, Dance, Classical, and Reggae, has shaped
her musical sound, which she refers to as Universal
S-O-U-L.
JUANITA has an impressive roster which includes being
a finalist in the Miss Black World New York State Modeling
and Beauty Pageant, and has appeared in magazines, music
showcases, fashion shows, music videos, while also earning
a business degree in marketing and is the co-founder
of her own business.
Although the road to authenticity hasn't always been
an easy one, she has been determined to stay true to
herself. Mapping out her own path, she shows that she
is not just talented, but has exceptional business acumen.
"My
goal is to show others that they can achieve their dreams
on their own terms. You don't have to sacrifice yourself,
because it is who you are that makes you unique," she
says.
Doing things her way, JUANITA has embarked upon the
road less traveled, but is committed to being creative.
Whether she's singing, modeling, or running her own
company, she always keeps people guessing.
