Yaya Diamond – A Talent and a Musical Legacy all of her Own!
What does it take to achieve 8 Grammy nominations, multiple Billboard recognition awards as well as invitations to perform with the elitist pack of your artistic peers? Talent for one thing, is the basic requirement. While a perfectly professional track record will add flame to the fire. But what if you were able to throw in a hereditary element?
Let’s say for example you are the daughter of international recording artist Evelyn Thomas, the niece of Opera singer Robert McFerrin and the cousin of Grammy award winner Bobby McFerrin. At that point you would be thoroughly definable and pretty hard to ignore, and that is exactly what the spectacular singer, Yaya Diamond is able to showcase – fiery talented paired with an unquestionable musical legacy.
Yaya Diamond’s performances are full of remarkable surprises and beautiful emotional journeys, as she travels through varying genres and styles – Dance, R&B and Soul – with the utmost ease and dedication. This woman has a fresh body of work that is always filled with consistently quality work. Soulful, serene, sexy, spiritual….she has everything needed to capture ears and hearts.
There is something breathtaking and astonishing about Yaya Diamond. Her voice can be as strong as an ocean current in full storm, but as gentle as a floating cloud in a deep blue sky. She knows her craft and brings it to songs like her single “Everything Will Be Alright,” featuring former lead singer of the group Inner Circle, Carlton Coffie, or her Grammy-nominated collaboration with Walter Clyde Orange of The Commodores.
Currently getting ready to release her brand new single “Hey DJ” released on Expanded Music, Yaya Diamond has received accolades from within the industry, critics and the media alike, including from AboveAverageHipHop.com recently, stating “Yaya released seven projects thus far and has opened up for absolute royalty. She has an amazing voice and is worth a listen. Her catalog is incredible; and, I’m sure you’ll love it.”
With a stellar mix of passionate R&B songs, Soul flavored tunes and funky dance rhythms, her growing set builds on her talents and establishes her transcendent vocal skills and a storytelling mastery that effortlessly stirs and uplifts emotions. Yaya Diamond is constantly expanding and evolving her craft as she records new material and collaborates with hot new producers…all the while working her way towards completely honoring her immense musical legacy!
