Here’s a lil’ background on Lady Assassin

Lady Assassin is an aspiring singer / songwriter born & raised in New Jersey. Music is a huge aspect of her life. It has captivated her from the very start.

She was born Keesha and started out her life in East Orange, NJ. Throughout her childhood she surrounded herself with music. At 4 years old, she became the youngest member of her father’s drill team and began learning to play the drums. In elementary school, she joined the band and played the clarinet & saxophone. She continued with the band through middle and high school. In high school, she joined the marching band and choir. And then her life turned upside down.....her older sister was killed when she was 14 and then her parents got a divorce a year later (she felt as if her life was falling apart). Her mother then moved her & her two brothers to Verona, NJ (which was a huge change from East Orange) At this point Keesha lost her drive for music. She stopped everything all together & retreated to just singing for herself. Going through so many different emotions from the past 2 years, she strted making some bad choices. Luckily, she graduated high school but was 8 months pregnant when she did.

She became a mom at the very young age of 19 (she surely wasn’t ready but she did what she had to do). Real life had taken over and she was then faced with the reality of raising her son without a father and she fights everyday to make sure he doesn’t make the same mistakes as his father. So, she gave everything to God, she asked him to take the load off. Guess what.......He answered her prayers. In 2000, she met the man that she has grown to trust with her life (the only man she can trust since she has not seen her father in over 14 years) This man stepped in her life and helped her get it back on track. He made her feel like conquering the world. Between then & 2005, she had 2 more children (a girl & boy) and worked as a pre-school teacher. She lived a normal life and music still wasn’t back in her sights (even though she thought about it everyday).

In early 2006, she became very sick and spent most of the year recuperating and getting back on track.....in this time she realized that she had made a big mistake by turning her back on her music. So she put everything she had on making it right. “Life is just too short” She really stepped her game up. She started writing to get her skills up & and singing hooks for other artists.

Late 2007, Keesha was picked up by D.T.A. RecordZ (an upcoming independant label) & she became Lady Assassin, the 1st Lady of D.T.A. They have built their own studio from the ground up. She has been featured on songs by Verbal Assassin (her label mate) & has performed in shows with him at Diva Lounge in Montclair, NJ. She then fell back from everything that didn’t have to do with her project & concentrated solely on that . She literally locked herself in the studio, (no phones, no computer, just music) and finished her debut street CD “Welcome To My World” , which was released on May 12, 2009 & it includes the hit single “Cross the Desert”

With over 70,000 plays on her myspace page, Lady Assassin is really on her way to the top. To her singing has always been as natural as breathing. It is her dream to stand on stage and captivate audiences with her one-of-a-kind style. And with her positive outlook on life & her beautiful smile, once you meet her, you can’t help but to love her. Just listen to her music and you can get to know her. She truly is a “Diamond in the rough”.

Lady Assassin's 2nd project, "A TRIPLE THREAT" was released in June 2010 & she's also workin' on her 3rd project, due to be released Summer 2011. She is also working on the D.T.A. Compilation & getting her skills up recording & mixing sessions. So just take the time and give her music a chance, she is a true treasure.


*******A Word From Lady AssassIn*******

This is just some food for thought....

- Don’t spend so much time stressing over the things you know you can’t change & concentrate on the things you can.
- Accomplish all that you can in a day because we are surely not promised tomorrow...& when I say that, I mean...accomplish all the things that are important to you & make you happy.

- Live life, don’t let life live you & live it with no regrets, everything happens 4 a reason.

And on a final note, Remember...”Whatever you wish, Whatever you dream, Whatever you hope to achieve...it’s yours, if only you believe.”

God Bless!!
