Priscilla Renea Hamilton is an American singer and songwriter. She is signed to Capitol Records,[2] and her debut album, Jukebox, was released on December 1, 2009 but failed to garner success.[1][3] Her second album is expected to be released sometime in 2011, although no official release details have been announced. As a songwriter she has written for Rihanna, Chris Brown, Cheryl Cole, and Selena Gomez.
Early life
Renea was born in Vero Beach, Florida in the United States on September 14, 1988. Renea's father was a member of the Navy.[4] Renea has stated that she began singing at age two but wasn't comfortable with singing around people until she was older.[1][3] She disliked music that she heard on the radio so decided to write songs that she liked, and that she wanted to hear. She later stumbled upon YouTube and began posting videos of her singing in her room. She recorded videos of her self singing the dictionary, and made her own songs Independently.[1][3] Her channel eventually received over 30,000 subscriptions and she was given the opportunity to participate in MTV's Say What? Karaoke.[3]
Career
Renea began her career by appearing on MTV's Say What? Karaoke program in 2007.[3] After the program, she caught the attention of Capitol Records through her YouTube channel. She then signed with the label in 2009 and promptly began work on her own album.[2][3] She aimed for the record to be a combination of many genres.
Renea's debut album, Jukebox, was released on December 1, 2009. The record sold a mere 1,200 copies in its first week and failed to reach the Billboard 200. However, it did reach number twenty-three on the Billboard Heatseekers album charts, staying on the chart for one week.[5] The album has sold 3,000 copies to date in the U.S. and 5,000 copies to date worldwide. Regardless of its commercial failure, the album was critically acclaimed.[6] The album was due for an October 20, 2009 release but was delayed for additional recording to occur.
The album was preceded by the single "Dollhouse", which was released on August 18, 2009. The single failed to reach the Billboard Hot 100 but did reach number eleven on the Heatseekers singles chart,[7] number thirty-one on the Hot Dance Club Songs [8] chart and number thirty-four on the Pop Songs,[9] becoming a mild chart success. The second and final single, "Lovesick", was released on March 2, 2010 but failed to chart completely.[10]
Renea announced via The Mo'Nique Show in July 2010 that she was recording her second album and was planning for a release by the end of 2010. The album will be more R&B/soul-influenced than her debut, she has stated.[11]
Renea co-wrote four songs (including the UK number-one single "Promise This" and the UK top twenty hit "The Flood") for British pop singer Cheryl Cole's second studio album, Messy Little Raindrops, released on November 1, 2010. She also co-wrote "California King Bed" for Barbadian recording artist Rihanna's fifth studio album, Loud, released on November 12, 2010. Renea also provided background vocals for the song. Renea also wrote the single "Who Says" for Selena Gomez in early 2011.
