AT LAST

LaTanja Hope, was born in Chicago, IL., the 4th child in a family of 7, 3 girls and 4 boys.  If I had to describe LaTanja, two words come to mind “natural talent”.  Her strong chops and passionate delivery never disappoints. Her tough life experiences have honed her into a singing dynamo such as you have rarely experienced.  At the age of 8 she lost her younger brother Lawrence run over and killed by a car, it left an early emotional scar that she draws on to this day.

Her career began on a coffee table at the age of 6 with a brush as the mic, she made dozens of guest appearances at her parent’s parties. Her next arena the church would help her develop her God given talent to the fullest, Pews and seats would quickly fill up, when Latanja was going to sing.   Her vibrant and soulful voice put her in demand very Sunday.  During High School she frequently sang in school plays and musicals, being awarded for her efforts at every level. 

Later she would attend College and join several bands, touring from south bend to Chicago gaining the experience needed to professionally  practice her trade and bless all those under the sound of her voice. At heart she’s a R&B Jazz and Gospel singer.  But during her several hundred appearances from Chicago to Bayside Miami, she has performed in several Pop and Rock bands as well.  In addition, she has two contemporary Christian CD’s, her music has been play dozen of time on local TV shows in Atlanta.She performed weekly for one year under contract at Atlanta’s Underground including performing at their live broadcasted events.  Having never successfully transferred her talent to the studio, LaTanja prefers and love’s a live performance. Currently she has one motto “have voice will travel.”

Unfortunately many of her stellar performances have never been recorded, please feel free to sample the ones that have.

Please forgive the quality many were shot with home video equipment, listen to the sound “THE SOUNDS OF LATANJA”
