Music, Beauty & Brain -MELANIE FIONA


Melanie Fiona, is the new heart & soul of R&B genre but if genius was a music genre, it would definitely be where she belongs. Melanie Fiona is a singer-songwriter from Toronto, Canada. She was born to Guyanese immigrant parents and grew-up in the inner city of Toronto. Melanie always knew music was her passion for the simple fact & remembrance of the days of her father as a guitarist in a band.

A younger Melanie would always sit on the stage and enjoyed when her father's band would practiced. She later earned a featured appearance on the Reggea Gold 2008 with "Somebody Come Get Me", which was produced by SUP DUB's of Black Chiney, a very huge reggea sound in Jamaica. Melanie also recorded a cover of "Heartless" which caught Musician/Producer Kanye West attention. Due to the great success of the cover song Kanye allowed her to open in the sold out concert during his European Tour in 2008.
