ARTIST SPOTLIGHT
JAYNA BLACKWELL
Jayna Blackwell has been singing since she was four years old. Singing first in church you could often find her in the youth and young adult and state choirs, of her home church and it’s jurisdiction. While still holding on to her gospel roots, Jayna began singing R&B professionally in the early 90’s and she hasn’t stopped yet.
Her eclectic musical taste and style has enabled her to develop a voice that includes genres such as R&B, Funk, Jazz and even Rock & Roll. She credits her first band; Thrilltrain for opening her up to singing Rock & Roll and Mr. Barron Edwards for strategically placing her in his Motown Revue Tribute Show and his well received R&B show band and for forcing her to sing professionally again after quitting the business at an earlier stage in her career. Jayna quickly became known as an established background vocalist supporting several local bands and solo artists for many years.
This woman has a story which she tells in the sound of her voice. She often says her “experiences have shaped the voice you hear today “ and credits her family and peers for pushing and loving her back to center stage in 2012; Nichole Blackwell, John D. Smith, Grady Wilkins, Nicole “Buttah” Pearson, Niecey “the voice” Robinson, and countless others. The year 2014 marked a career turn for Jayna as she was again nominated and awarded the “Best Neo-soul Performer” by the Bay Area Black Music Awards and was signed and also made the First Lady/President of her production company/record label “Curency Kingz Entertainment” (CKE) by her label’s CEO and manager, Kenneth Christian.
She is in the process of recording her freshman album “Uncompromised” …and has a fresh new r&b single entitled "That's My Song" on the C-Town Records label that is a popular track in the U.K., South Africa, France and Italy and rapidly gaining airplay among popular mixshows and top DJ's here in the USA. C-Town Records is distributed worldwide by Centurian Music Group.
