Los Angeles, CA – Urban musical Gospel stylist Speezy has a new album right around the corner. Waving the flag for the CD, entitled “Still Standing,” is the snappy single “Now Is The Time,” a tune that proves that positive vibes exist in a musical culture often derided for negativity.
...
“Now Is The Time”demonstrates Speezy’s masterful mix of Hip-Hop/Gospel hooks and R&B-soul sounds. Its marriage of substance and hit-making catchiness pops out bright and clear with shining melodies, grooves and bounce and a vocal presence that is one of a kind. Riveting lyrics delivered by a woman who is capable of swinging back and forth between rap and singing without missing a beat (truly a blessing in a beat-oriented genre!) crackle across the instrumental bedrock of crisp production, melodicism as sassy as this artist and movement-inducing, inspirational hooks.
...
“Now Is The Time” uses popular appeal to draw attention to the current economy to uplift the broken spirits that have bound the youth, and that believing and trusting in the Lord is all the reason to rejoice and feel empowered that all things are possible. Speezy uses herself as an example of what God can do to turn a hopeless situation to an extraordinary miracle. “This is an era where young people are influenced by the negativity that surrounds them and implement it into their lives; they are made to believe that they are unworthy so they aim to self-destruct and make their futures bleak but I always say there is a God that loves you and can makes all things possible if you trust in Him,” says Speezy.
...
Speezy’s compositional flavor, arrangements and delivery are distinctive – she even incorporates three different languages on some tracks.
...
This 25-year-old U.K. resident transplanted from Zimbabwe is doggedly and determinedly making headway in the underground Gospel scene with a sound that makes its mark with originality instead of copycat derivation. Genre staples find new life through her unique style and creativity. Her colorful cultural background is reflected by her artistic diversity and brings a dazzling sparkle (that’s much more than mere glitter) that is downright inspiring. Speezy captivatingly merges commercial pull with song writing integrity. There’s a mark on her head and it’s called success.
...
Besides being an outstanding composer and performer, Speezy is also an accomplished producer. She brings an ethnic flavor to contemporary urban music brought into sharp focus by the sunglasses-on-please gleam of her production skills. (Besides all this, she is a talented dancer, poet, artist and designer.) She writes, sings and produces all her own material. In addition to her recording prowess, she has performed heavily in a variety of venues – and even appeared on her local radio and held the number 1 spot for 3weeks!
...
Speezy’s music is the proof of her philosophy: “The mind is the most powerful weapon known to man – with it your enemies are always on guard.”
...
She is currently working with A&R Select, the premier A&R firm based out of Los Angeles, CA. More information is available by visiting www.myspace.com/indispeezy and www.arselect.com
Thanks 4 the ADDD! here is a lil sum 4 ya hope to hear back from you soon...
I am not my scars I know you see my pains reflection through the window of my eye Every let down, misconception, every hurt, and every lie. I try to cover up, yet my nakedness still shows, You see me, in my truest form, I am vulnerable and exposed. Sometimes the phantom of my past appears, though I try to forget Even when I hide it in the darkness, I still see its silhouette. So why do I regret…? These events are the fabric of who I’ve come to be Every instance like a fiber woven in my life’s tapestry. I can only look back for wisdom, I must let this be my strength But even I have yet to discover the true extent of its length. I have only gone so deep, on the surface it hurts so much When I feel my ugliness visible, I just want to cover up. But these memories, the pain from my past, and what I see… This is only an illusion, not the definition of me. I am not my downfalls, and I am not my mistakes, Yet when they look at me, this is all they seem to take. But look at ME, look into my soul… Look at who I really am, not the scars that clearly show. I have to remind myself who I am every day, Because everyone and everything tries to lead my mind astray. They want me to believe I am who they see me to be… They try to show me what I’ve overcome as if it’s still me. Will I live up to be the conceptions as they have made Or will I make my own path, let the past lie where it may See, I am not my scars, my scars are just the proof That I have healed from my afflictions, and I have made it through. -Fiyah
