Shonte Renee is a liberated woman who lives life on her own terms, a soulful and melodic singer that deliberately offers sexuality as part of the package. Her vibe is all about artistic expression and going against the grain in every aspect of life. As a result, the Atlanta, GA native is part sex symbol, part rebel and part sweetheart, a dichotomy that explains the diversity of her audience and music.
Shonte’s appeal might begin with her pinup girl looks and charismatic personality, but it’s her vocal talent that locks people in. It was that charm, but also her skills on the mic, that caught the discerning eye and ear of Grammy-winning DJ and producer, DJ Montay. ‘Montay saw a video of me on Instagram singing TI and Pink’s song, ‘Guns and Roses,’ A Capella and loved it,’ recalls Shonte. ‘He immediately signed me to Oomp Camp Records and it’s been nothing but forward progression ever since.’ As the first lady of a label that has had multi-platinum success with its roster, the young songstress plans to keep the legacy alive.
Shonte is truly a classy lady who rocks. In addition to being sexually expressive, she also pushes boundaries with her sound, preferring to blend genres such as Pop, Rock, R&B and Hip-Hop. Shonte’s lyrics echo her fearless persona touching on personal subject matter that contains both emotion and heart, as well as challenges and surprises.
