Keke Wyatt Information

|
'Ketara "KeKe" Wyatt', born in Louisville, Kentucky, is an American soul singer. A protegé of Chicago-based producer/songwriter Steve "Stone" Huff, KeKe originally started off her musical career as a member in Destiny's Child, when they were still named Girl's Tyme. She first gained notoriety singing with MCA Records labelmate Avant on his single My First Love, a remake of the lush 1980s ballad by Rene & Angela. The success of that single prompted the release of her first single Used To Love, which didn't take off. However, the follow-up Nothing In This World, her second time dueting with Avant, became a huge smash single.
In 2002, on Christmas Eve, she was arrested for stabbing her husband with a kitchen knife. With the incident gaining a lot of publicity and controversy, it propelled her debut album Soul Sista into gold-certifed status. The case was later settled, and her family life back to happiness. The video for her third single, I Don't Wanna, featured her real-life spouse playing her husband as well as their son in the beginning intro.
By 2004, KeKe had left MCA Records and signed with Cash Money Records. Her second album, Emotional Rollercoaster, is set for release in the winter of 2005. Meanwhile, that set's first single, Put Your Hands On Me became the #1 most added urban track to radio in April 2005.
