MARGEAUX!!!!! Experimental Soul, Hip Hop, Funk, Jazz (J Dilla Meets Etta James)
23 Year old Margeaux Was born and raised in Minneapolis Minnesota. Hometown of Prince,Mint Condition, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. Next, the Times, Sounds Of Blackness. The Steel Family, J. Issac, Ann Nesby, Johnny Lang etc.. She is going to be the next " big artist."
Since the age of three, Margeaux has always enjoyed the spotlight. Margeaux would sing at the mall to anyone who would listen, and put on a little show, singing "Her favorite Jackson 5 song "Rockin Robin." Her father soon bought Margeaux a key board and Margeaux started plugging away.. Margeaux taught her self by ear. There was never anybody in the family that was musically inclined. Her parents were just a fan of Good Music. "Real Music" Margeaux shortly just fell in love with the whole "OLD SCHOOL VIBE"
Margeaux's Parents listened to all the greats! Duke Ellington~ Ella F. Etta James, Ruth Brown, Miles Davis, Stevie Wonder, Sam Cooke, Ray Charles, Nat king Cole, Tony Bennet~ Frank Sinatra~ Diana Ross and The Supremes, Earth Wind and Fire. (Just to name the very few)
Margeaux took Opera voice lessons at MacPhail Center For Music for five years and participated in several Honors Recitals 1999-2003. Although she was born with this natural gift. Margeaux wanted to learn about different types of music and other ways to use her voice instrument. And Opera Mos Def Helped...
Graduating from North Community High School in Minneapolis, in June of 2004. Margeaux received recognition for creativity and visual performing arts award; also a certificate of achievement as an African American Achiever. Margeaux graduated "A" honor roll and participated in many of the Arts and Communications Presentations. Margeaux always sang for the graduating class commencements at the Civic Center for her high school.
One month after graduating High School, Margeaux had an audition/competition not knowing the difference between the two. Margeaux read an add in the local news paper looking for "Singers" so she had made an appointment to meet with them. The talent scouts fell in love with Margeaux, and shortly after Margeaux starting working with them. The talent scouts promised her this and that, and said they knew this and that person, but of course there was always a fee, and she(I) paid it. (Well my parents did) Thousands of dollars later. Her and her family realized that this was a scam and Margeaux was sold a dream.. That money that was spent on this unfortunate scam was for Margeaux's College career. Margeaux's Parents couldn't afford this, but did it any way because they believe in her..
Even though Margeaux and her parents were scammed , that still didn't bring them down. "Now we know we can't trust everybody in this industry. It was a huge learning experience."

"Thank You! To those of you who laughed at me, thank you. Without you I wouldn't have cried. To those of you who just couldn't love me, thank you. Without you I wouldn't have known real love. To those of you who hurt my feelings, thank you. Without you I wouldn't have felt them. To those of you who left me lonely, thank you. Without you I wouldn't have discovered myself. But it is to those of you who thought I couldn't do it; It is you I thank the most, Because without you I wouldn't have tried"
