Singing since the age of five, R&B/Soul singer Shateish, from Portsmouth, Virginia joined her mother's gospel group, 'Evangelist Brinkley and The Gospel Pearls', at the age of eight and continued singing with them until the age of 18, when she decided to leave and pursue a future as an R&B artist. Her mother was her greatest influence, 'she taught me everything I know right now, she taught me to always be myself when I sing, always feel it, always be humble', with her other great influence being Tina Turner, 'I love some Tina Turner. I love her music, I wish one day I could meet her and just do one song with her'. Other influences include Aretha Franklin, Patti LaBelle and Gladys Knight ’all the people that bring that soul', and she hopes with her music to 'touch people, I want people to feel me, I want to write and make music where I know what other people are going through, I can relate to it...I'm just giving them something that they need to be healed, or, you know, or just to make it through the day'. In 2008 she was interduce to producer Nottz who’s featured her on the Scarface track 'Still Here' from the 'Emeritus' album, and 2012 she flips an Etta James-inspired classic into a updated tribute called “I’m Leaving” produced by Nottz. Also sang on the hook on The Game “Bloody Moon” track from ‘The Blood Moon: Year of the Wolf’ and Blu & Nottz song “Truth” from the ‘Titans in the Flesh’ EP.
