Kameelah "Meelah" Williams, who once fronted the 90’s girl group 702, is rumored to be the latest "addition" to "R&B Divas: Atlanta".  But our sources say it’s not true.  At least not yet.  Get deets on the non denial/denial inside…..

 

The Atlanta rumor mill has been buzzing about a new addition to the "sanging" chicks of "R&B Divas: Atlanta".  We’ve heard that Kameelah Williams, who rose to fame in the 90s as part of the group 702 ("Get It Together", "Steelo") will be joining the cast for season three.  

For those who aren’t too familiar with Kameelah and her personal life, she has a son with Musiq Soulchild and has been working on solo project in Atlanta, which may included a few tracks with Stevie J. And back in the day, Faith Evans once served as her mentor, with Kameelah singing on Faith’s "Burning Up" single and appearing in the video.

We reached out to a source on the "R&B Divas: Atlanta" production team who told us, "There have been no additional cast members added to "R&B Divas: Atlanta".  Meanwhile, Kameelah’s manager told us that they could neither deny nor confirm her casting. 

Hmmm….it sounds like Kameelah hasn’t signed her contract yet or the producers are still "figuring out" her place on the show.  Or maybe she’s not doing it at all.  You’ll recall that the producers kept the additions of LaTocha Scott and Angie Stone under wraps for a long time before they officially confirmed them.

We’ll keep our eyes peeled to see if she pops up during a cameo this season.  Meanwhile, "R&B Divas: LA" is set to debut on TvONE July 10 and the "Atlanta" crew wraps up their season on June 19th.

 

In case you missed it:

Meelah released a very underrated single called "I Should Let You Go" produced by the infamous "LAHH ATL" producer Stevie J a few months ago.  We actually like the song, which only serves to remind us that there’s more to Stevie J than his "bus" of females.

Ottawa’s Taz returns with a new single “Fall 4 You” produced by Denysxw_beats. The video was shot in Miami. Fall 4 You was created, I never heard of him but when I heard the Beat , is when I just know , this is how I make most of my music . I hear a beat then I put words to the music. I recorded this song in 1 hour with a producer named Daniel “Dray” Paisly who works out of a recording studio here in Ottawa called The Cave.

When I was young I always listened to Hiphop / rap and was always listening to all kinds of artist and knew these 3 artists would make it big one day. The number one reason was their wordplay & lyricism. I like aboogie , polo G and liltjay because Their music taught me about life as a young teenager and the music speaks to me . These 3 artist always stood out to me from their melodic flow & cadence. I always dreamed that one day maybe I could be just like them.

Tierra Whack, the GRAMMY-nominated rapper and creative visionary, has once again left fans in awe with her latest video, MOOVIES. In this witty and playful visual, Tierra takes us through a series of movie dates gone terribly wrong. With each new suitor, her hopes for love are dashed, yet she persists in her quest for romance. Directed by her frequent collaborator, contemporary artist Alex Da Corte, the video blends humor and heartache in a colorful display of Tierra’s dynamic storytelling and Da Corte’s artistic flair. Following the success of her critically acclaimed debut album WORLD WIDE WHACK, this video showcases a lighter side to Tierra, as she remains optimistic despite her unlucky streak in love.

Critics and media outlets alike have showered “WORLD WIDE WHACK” with praise since its release in March.

Pitchfork echoed these sentiments, pointing to her “eye for surreal, captivating detail” that continues to shine through every project. Tierra has been actively performing, including a standout appearance at NPR’s Tiny Desk, which NPR called “one of the best Tiny Desks in history.” She’s also performed alongside fellow artists like Jill Scott at The Roots Picnic and made a surprise appearance at Childish Gambino’s tour stop in Philly, keeping fans engaged and excited about her every move.

Fleetwood Jr Channels Life’s Struggles in New Song “Feel Me”

Published

on

Orlando native artist Fleetwood Jr dives deep into his personal journey with his latest single, “Feel Me,” released on September 28, 2024. Produced by Djstakkman, the track captures Fleetwood’s raw reflections on his life experiences, particularly his encounters with police brutality and growing up in a tough environment. For Fleetwood Jr, music is a form of therapy, allowing him to process the trauma of being exposed to police aggression as early as age six. He uses the song to voice his feelings on violence in communities, the misplaced glorification of neighborhoods, and the harsh realities of loyalty and relationships.

“Feel Me” stands out not only for its hard-hitting lyrics but also for its relatability. Fleetwood Jr crafted the track to resonate with others who share similar struggles. For him, it’s the embodiment of an underdog mentality—rising from the hardships and defying the odds. His favorite line, “N***** beefing over streets I went and bought a LLC, Kolin Kaepernick so much violence make you take a knee,” critiques the senseless street violence while offering a clever nod to self-empowerment and accountability. It’s a track that speaks to anyone who has overcome adversity while pushing for growth and resilience.

Fleetwood Jr is steadily making his mark in the industry, with several upcoming performances, including a mic session with Has1ATL and a performance in Orlando on November 23rd. He’s also preparing for the release of a music video for “Feel Me.” Having shared stages with legends like Young Dro and rising stars like Omertta, Fleetwood Jr is poised for a major breakthrough, continuing to rep his city and Da Underdawgs Ent LLC with every verse.
