The self-taught singer/songwriter UNÉ
(pronounced “you nay”) chose this name to express his universal, eternal and
soulful spirit. The Detroit native began his dream, singing in clubs and
churches in the Motor City. When you hear UNÉ, on his debut self-titled
CD, you experience his heartfelt sound—smooth, strong and at the same time,
gentle. “It wasn’t until I was given a second chance at life, that I learned to
love myself,” admits UNÉ. As he sings about life’s journeys, you know that he has
experienced a myriad of peaks and valleys. His travels give his music a deep
resonant texture, as evidenced by “I Can Remember.”
UNÉ'S style is reminiscent of Marvin Gaye and Luther Vandross—at the same time,
it evokes the neo-soul vibe of John Legend and Anthony Hamilton. Make no
mistake, UNÉ delivers a serious R&B sound that is smooth and sensual with a jazz
feel, as evidenced by cuts “I Really Love U Love,” “You Complete Me” and “I
Won’t Complain.” “I wanted to do an album that was rooted in R&B, but
would transcend being pigeon-holed. I wanted this CD to be embraced
universally,” he added. “The songs primarily come from personal
experiences and from people that were close to me,” he said. It explains cuts
like “Lady You Are” and “Hit the Shaw.” “My goal was that my songs would
touch the very soul of a person--to take them on a journey with me, whether its
traveling the byways of love or the passages of hurt, I wanted this CD to be a
spiritual ride we (the listener) both could share,” says UNÉ.
The UNÉ CD became a reality, after he moved to Los Angeles, and formed UNET
Music and Entertainment with Carmela C. Martin, a record producer from Los
Angeles, and his cousin, Ernest Thomas. Thomas, best known as “Raj” from the hit
television series, “What’s Happening” and other television and motion picture
roles that include “Malcolm X”.
UNÉ'S childhood buddy, Sterling G., a prolific writer and producer, produced the
CD along with co-producer Carmela C. Martin. UNÉ'S appeal is ageless--which was
apparent at a recent performance at BB King’s in L.A., where he showcased songs
from the CD and received a standing ovation. One fan commented, “You’re the only
singer I’ve seen who sounds better than his CD!”
His sensual, compassionate and intimate nature flows into his live performances,
touching the heart and spirit of his audience. For those who don’t have
the opportunity to enjoy a soul-filled journey with UNÉ in concert—the CD is the
next best thing to being there.
" A single life is not enough to conquer the wishes or to fulfill the dreams, yet unsatisfied creatures strive to live, to live a life of chaos. Finally, in the deathbed, overwhelmed memory cries for the bygone days, lost friends and unaccomplished tasks. Let us live happily, satisfied in the hope that the morning will come with newer destiny, newer hope and yet newer life. "
Wishing you a beautiful Sunday and a great week up ahead!

Wer fühlt wie ich leide - wer liest was ich schreib ?
Sag wer nimmt mir meine Ängste und wer gibt mir neuen Mut -
wer kanns tun - wenn nicht Du ?"

The past doesn't dictate who you are The present can only expose where you stand The future can't just be left in your own hands Look from within Seek from above Find what you truly Love All else will fall within what's supposed to be the master plan!
Sending some love, wishing you a Happy Wednesday! ~:)
