[edit] Biography
[edit] Early Life and Discovery
Weaned on her parent’s old school soul and jazz records—Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, and Aretha Franklin— Kyla soon developed an affinity to singing, hugging the mic every single chance she gets. By her 10th birthday, Kyla was already joining over prestigious TV singing contests. She was lording "Tanghalan ng Kampeon" for six straight weeks, and with her powerful interpretation of Jennifer Holiday’s “I Am Changing,” became the show’s grand champion in 1993.[6]
Veteran director Al Quinn saw her potential, encouraging her to join the immensely popular Wednesday group of That’s Entertainment, an afternoon variety show on GMA Network using her real name, Melanie, as her screen name.
Kyla represented the country in the Fourth Yamaha Music Quest on August 1995 in Japan, where she interpreted the Vernhee Saturno original, "Only World".
In 1997, she brought home the third prize trophy in the Metropop Young Singers’ Competition (later renamed Metropop Star Search). Soon GMA’s Infiniti Records offered Kyla, along with fellow Metropop Star Search winners Carmela Cunta and Jonard Yanzon, to wax a couple of songs for a compilation album entitled "Kung Umiibig Na". She recorded two solo tracks: "I Wish You Love"" and the folksy love song, "Kung Magkikita Tayo Muli", which would later re-emerge as a Vina Morales signature hit, "Muli".
Armed with a Raymund Ryan composition, "One More Try", Kyla once again joined the Metropop Song Festival in 2000. The song failed to make it in the Top 12. It did, however, make it to EMI’s A/R Manager Francis Guevarra’s consciousness. Guevarra immediately signed her to a recording deal with EMI Philippines on April 2000 and was given the stage name 'Kyla' meaning princess.
She graduated high school at San Sebastian College - Recoletos and earned her Bachelor's Degree at Philippine Christian University.
[edit] 2000-2003: Debut and Early International Activities
Kyla made her big debut in 2000 with Way To Your Heart with its hit carrier single, “Bring It On.” The album brought out the realization that yes, the country’s first honest-to-goodness R&B has arrived. Comparisons to R&B super stars Brandy and Aaliyah began to surface.
It was her second single, the piano-driven ballad "Hanggang Ngayon"" that turned out to be Kyla’s breakthrough hit, topping a host of FM radio charts. The song’s music video, which was directed by Lyle Sacris, further boosted the song’s popularity. The video won for Kyla two big honors trophies at the 2001 MTV Pilipinas Awards: Best New Artist and Video of the year. Her video even went on to win the MTV Southeast Asia Video Music Award.
Along with Lea Salonga and Regine Velasquez, Kyla was listed as Best Female Singer in a survey held by popular teen magazine Meg in her first full year in the music business alone. Kyla also has six Awit Awards, including Best New Female Artist. FM Radio station KF FM even hailed her as Breakthrough Artist of the Year.
Kyla’s second album I Feel for You marked Kyla’s debut as a songwriter, penning two compositions: "I’m Into You"" and "This Day". It is with her sophomore offering that Kyla was given the opportunity to collaborate with popular recording artists like Freestyle and Gary Valenciano. She also collaborated with Malaysian R&B artist, Ferhad for his single "What More"[7]
Kyla opened 2002 with a band, receiving the award for Female Artist of the Year from two of the country’s most popular radio stations Magic 89.9. and Monster Radio RX 93.1. She was also invited to perform at the MTV Asia Awards with popular boy group Blue.
Kyla’s third album, I Will Be There is aided by the country’s most popular and respected artists. The title track is penned by none other than Ogie Alcasid , while "Naghihintay Lamang" is written by Janno Gibbs and "Feel So Good" by Rhada. There are a couple of reunions in I Will Be There, as well. First is with Mr. Pure Energy Gary Valenciano as they do a duet with "Sana Maulit Muli". After their performance at the MTV awards, Blue collaborates with Kyla wit the funky "Flexin’".
Kyla joined the noontime variety show SOP as a regular host on April 24, 2002. On November 29, 2002, Kyla interpreted the song "Buti Na Lang" at the Metropop Songfest.
Kyla released her third album, I Will Be There, which is also the title of her ballad carrier single on May 23, 2003. The album also produced the single "Bounce." She performed the song "Flexin" with British R&B group Blue at the MTV Asia Awards in Singapore that same year. Kyla made special appearances in sitcoms and made her acting debut in the telenovela Narito Ang Puso Ko.
[edit] 2004-2006: Not Your Ordinary Girl and Beautiful Days
Kyla, as one of the most popular faces in the entertainment industry, she remained as simple as she is in person.
She co-hosted GMA Channel 7’s defunct Sunday variety show SOP. She opened 2004 with her birthday celebration at SOP with a surprise duet from American singer-songwriter and producer, Keith Martin. Kyla had included one of his songs in her Perfectly Acoustic compilation album released December 2003.
Onto her fourth album, Kyla dished out what may be Kyla’s best work just yet. There were a lot of collaborations, a bunch of revivals, and some cute original materials, making Not Your Ordinary a not so ordinary album, too.
Currently on its way to the top of the charts is Kyla’s first single, "Human Nature". The song is a Michael Jackson original that is one of the several covers in the album. Kyla remakes Claire Marlowe’s "Till They Take My Heart Away'"", as well as Gary Valenciano.’s "What More Can I Say?", and Ella Mae Saison’s "If The Feeling Is Gone".
Collaborations with Keith Martin and Jay-R make Kyla’s album a fun and funky album. From R&B to pop to a bit of hip hop and the good ol’ ballad, Not Your Ordinary Girl demonstrates Kyla’s versatility as a singer and performer. Kyla’s conquest to stardom paid off as her latest album attained its Platinum status in November 2004. Her concert, Kyla "Not Just Your Ordinary Girl" at the Araneta Coliseum on November 12, 2004, was a certified sold out concert as well.[8]
The same year, she opened for Alicia Keys Live in Manila at the Araneta Coliseum.
From 2006 to 2007, Kyla hosted Popstar Kids, which aired on QTV.
In June 2006, Kyla’s blend of singer-songwriter sensitivity and a big voiced R&B have proven more as she released her fifth album under EMI Phils entitled Beautiful Days where each track takes you to the emotional high of love to return and the lows of a love unrequited in five covers and nine original singles.
The album features the first single "Ngayong Wala Ka Na'', a sumptuous combination of soul and heart with the song’s composer, arranger and producer is R&B hit maker himself, Keith Martin. This song is also written by Jason Balibay and Diana Dayao.
Self-assured, illuminating performance underscores Kyla a boundless passion for her craft. She explains Beautiful Days as means moving forward, moving ahead, looking at things in a beautiful way.”
[edit] 2007-2009: Heartsongs
In 2007, she released her sixth album, Heartfelt. Her first album of remakes, Heartfelt contained 17 tracks, 16 of which are remakes including "I Don't Want You to Go" and "It's Over Now" and an original composition, "Someone"[9]
