I think people underestimate backup singers. Its not about "blending in". You REALLY got to know how to sing, read music, have perfect pitch, timing, etc. You got to know how to hold your own. In a LOT of cases, the backups are better than the artists they back up - case in point Alicia Keys vs. Whitney Keaton.
On November 6th, Raphael " Raii " Smith and Whitney Keaton will be the first musical guest on a new cooking show with Chef Judson Todd Allen in Chicago, Illinois!
And this Nov 11th 2010, Whitney Keaton & Raphael "Raii" Smith will be hosting an unplugged spoken word in Champaign, Illinois for Glory Center Campus !!

@amandadenise7011 I was very serious lol She is waaay better than just being a backup singer but I understand the process. She is going to be big!! Unless, she gets with sucky producers that won't give her the right music. I'm believing for her..
@Kelolo22 oh yeah i definitely agree with that. She is WAYY to good to be a backup singer. I believe she is with the right person to make that happen for her or give her the opportunity to do so, because Alicia Keys is the most humble celebrity I know. Her and and Anaysha Figuroa are the truth. If you haven't heard her you would be sayin the same thing girl. These 2 are friends and Anaysha sings with Kirk Franklin. Something awesome. I hope they get big one day!!
Alicia should back up for this girl seriously. What a range, what a tone quality and what a vibrato. And awesome intuition for the notes and riffs! This girl is a treasure.
Her name is Whitney Keaton and she's from Champaign, Illinois....and you talk about someone that's humble too? OMG..... no arrogance from her at all.....great person inside and outside!!!
This girl needs a solo album. NOW.
