About Tynisha Keli (Biography)
Just a girl who came from nothing trying to make her way. Tynisha Keli comes from a very poverty stricken home and struggled most of her life... "I caught a break when i was 14 just to come to LA and struggle in a different way... i was now in another world at 14 but with no family or friends...Even though it was rough I found a way to make it work cause I had never wanted something so bad! "Tynisha signed to MCA Records (age 15) in a girls group. "From the beginning i knew it wasn't for me. As time went on I wanted to branch out and try it on my own. So I signed to a production company then signed to Warner Brothers Records and began recording the solo album. Something just wasn't fittin' I wasn't content with what we had. I grew up a little more, started to change mentally, physically and spiritually so decided to change the route of the album. I released the production company and started to work with different producers that i thought fit the criteria of what i was searching for. Producers such as Brian Michael Cox, Justice League, Tha Corna Boyz, Robin Thicke, Co-Stars and so many more... Now that I'm almost there, so close i swear i can taste it, I realize that in the end your dreams do come true if you don't give up on them no matter how hard it gets."
"Some things are worth sacrificing all that you have!" -- Tynisha Keli

How is aretha franklin related to Whitney Houston?
It has been widely reported for years that Aretha was Whitney's godmother, but after Whitney died, Aretha was interviewed on the Today show and said she had only been a friend of the family and not Whitney's godmother. However, many articles have noted that Whitney felt very close to Aretha, even calling her Aunt Ree. And there have been a few stories since Whitney's death that indicate Aretha and Whitney's mom (Cissy Houston) had some sort of disagreement or dispute, so that may have contributed to Aretha now saying she was never Whitney's godmother.
Bessie Smith was a famous jazz and blues singer of the 1920s and 1930s.
There is some controversy surrounding Bessie's date of birth, which her mother, Laura Owens Smith, reported on the 1900 US Census as July 9, 1892. Ten years later, in the 1910 Census, Bessie's sister Viola and the census worker reassigned her the birth date to April 15, 1894 (April 15 was the day before the Census) for unknown reasons. April 15 was officially recorded and is the day celebrated by her family.
Bessie was key to the development of American blues and jazz, and has 15 hits listed in Joel Whitburn's "Pop Memories", including the 1923 (presumed) #1 "Down Hearted Blues".
