Aries
It is inevitable that this 21 year old, vocalist will bring a freshness to the Hip Hop world, not only as a rap artist and singer, but as a songwriter, as well. Although a newcomer to the game, with her vibrant energy, she definitely exudes a genuine and versatile style and sound. Surrounded by a family of musicians, she developed her voice, at a young age, singing in church and even starting an R&B girl group. She says, “We just knew we would make it to the Apollo one day.” Born in Los Angeles and raised in the Bay Area, Aries grew to appreciate and respect the styles of both areas, with influences such as Da Brat, Notorius BIG, Jay-Z, Mary J. Blige, SWV, and many others. At the age of 18, and back in Southern California, Aries, was introduced to the rap game by, Motion, CEO of Icy Records. Looking back, she remembers the first time she spit her first verse and says, “Motion has taught me so much, from how to write my music, to being able to read it.” Aries has always stood out of the crowd, so it’s only natural that she shine. She has performed at 2 carshow venues one of which had a guest appearance by the NB Riders. She has also performed at high schools, colleges, LA and Houston night clubs (i.e. Mixed Nuts Comedy Club, Universal City’s B.B. King House of Blues, and the Toc Bar). Aries is currently working on her third project, a solo album scheduled to be release in February of 2006. Aries has been featured on two of Motion’s albums, IcyHot, and his most recent release, Mixed Emotions. Aries and Motion have also collaborated on a mixtape in, 2004, Icy the Mixtape Volume 1. Aries has been featured on many other independent artists albums including songs produced by Houston’s very own mixtape killa, DJ KUTZ. Thus far, with her smooth delivery, very impressive lyrics, profound writing skills, and her trendy style, Aries has gained respect from both the male and female audience. Aries plans to take over the female rap game with her unique style, hard work and dedication. Aries plans to do something that no female has ever done before, and that is to bring the West Coast back, “like Snoop Dogg, except in female version.”
