Rap-Up.com || New Music: Sevyn Streeter

From behind the scenes to the spotlight, after working with a who’s who of R&B superstars, Sevyn Streeter (formerly known as just Sevyn) is ready to make the leap to solo star with her debut single “I Like It.”

The bouncy track has elements of ’90s R&B and hip-hop, and finds Sevyn belting throughout. She has already established herself as a prolific songwriter and vocalist, working with a slew of established artists from Alicia Keys (“New Day”) and Brandy (“Slower”) to Trey Songz (“Without a Woman”) and Kelly Rowland (“Keep It Between Us”).

The former RichGirl member is signed to Chris Brown’s CBE label in conjunction with Atlantic Records, where she will release her debut.

“Sevyn is such an amazing talent and person. I am sooo thankful she took the time to work on my new album,” said Brandy, while Alicia added, “Sevyn has an energy that is a spark in a room! She is driven and focused like only those who make a true imprint are! I look forward to seeing the mark she leaves on the world!”

In 2011, Sevyn co-wrote Chris Brown’s singles including “Next to You,” “Wet,” and “Yeah 3x.” She also provided background vocals on “She Ain’t You.”

“Sevyn has one of the most angelic voices I’ve heard in a long time,” said her mentor Chris. “She has a lot to offer the younger female generation.”

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS!!!! I haven’t even listened to the whole song yet and I’m HOOKED!!! I love her voice!!! I love the arrangements and track is CRAZY…. Alright girl you better come out swinging!!! But one thing, KILL that last name. It’s something about an R&B artist with one name that is cementing. Just stick with Sevyn.

Don’t like the name change. I won’t be changing it on my iTunes. I still REALLY REALLY miss RichGirl. But i wish her the best, this song is cool but not first single worthy. Random but i would love a Sevyn and Dawn Richards duet.

WOW, I’ve always been a Sevyn fan (even back in TG4) but she surprised me with this single. Her vocals are great, the production is great. I’m looking forward to her album, hopefully CBE & Atlantic actually release it…this girl has been waiting in the wings with labels for way too long!
Like a few people have mentioned, I also miss RichGirl. I think they could of done damage, I really think “Swagger Right” could of been pushed into a bigger urban hit.

I’ve had a love/hate thing for her since the break-up of RichGirl. She’s mainly the reason.
