Well, last night the Network Gathering went down at the Renaissance Hotel Performing Arts Centre, and if you didn't make then you missed a really nice event. Not only was it a way to do some advertising by passing out business cards and fliers for different events, you were also provided with a concert.....all for FREE! A surprise guest was Kandi of Xscape, who did a few cuts including "Your my Secret" and her new single "Trade Him In". It was a surprise to see her and her vocals are classic. She stated she's been out of the spotlight for a minute writing songs, but she very excited to be back. I know i used to bump "Hummin Comin at Cha" and "Off the hook" on cassette tape back in day! LOL... Next Britni Elise hit the stage. The 19 y/o from Cleveland, Ohio has powerhouse vocals. Best known for her single "Satisfied" showcased that she can sing and dance at the same time, which many current artist aren't able to do. Her vocals resemble that of Beyonce' at times, which is not at all a bad thing, and she even went one step further when she sang a snippet of "Vision of Love" accapella to let us know she was in the building. After a small break , Laura Izibor hit the stage and brought the house down. Backed by a live band and singers, it was her night. With her vocals flowing out like honey, she won a new fan and i'm sure i'm not the only one. The 22 y/o hailing from Scotland, took the stand, demanded your attention, and performed like she was 3 albums in the game, but in fact her first album will be released in the States Tuesday, June 16, 2009. Izibor is best known for her single "From my Heart to Yours" and she began to sing it, people began to jump to their feet, and if that wasn't enough, she mixed Mary J Blige's "Real Love" in there and killed. I'm sure we'll be hearing more from both these new artist in the future. Kudos to Hot 105, Davis Ent., and Swaggah Boy Ent. for a job well done, the city needs more things such as this.
