Choklate comes from Seattle and she´s relatively unknown, but that needs to change :)
This woman is still underated singer and songwriter. Her 2 albums mixed Soul, R&B, Funk and hip-hop sounds. She took old soul mood with hip hop beats and you can listen pure emotions in her voice...
"All I need is my beat, my mic, that stage, the crowd and I'm good..." Choklate
Choklate released self-titled album Choklate (2006). This debut she record in her brother´s studio. This debut was one of the most celebrated of the underground soul movement. . .My favourite song is "Waitin" which features Chali2na of Jurassic5. I found this album I think 2 or 3 years back and this album needs to be in my collection :)
After 3 years of her touring and promotion and vocal training she is back with second album
To Whom It May Concern (2009). When i was listening this album I thought her voice has grown. There are Soul/RnB balads, some funky beats and hip hop skills.
To Whom It May Concern is a 12-track, self-penned healthy dose of “reality soul” incorporating the skills of hip hop producers that may already be familiar to CHOKLATE fans, including Vitamin D (Abstract Rude, Black Sheep, Young Buck, Darien Brockington), Jake One (Lifesavas, Strange Fruit Project, Supernatural, Boom Bap Project) and r&b/soul/jazz producer Donyea Goodman (Darrius Willrich).
