BIOGRAPHY
Singer, songwriter, performer, producer, entrepreneur, and spokesmodel... there isn't much Giselle can't do, and do exceptionally well. HALO Music & Media Group presents "The R&B Barbie," Giselle Grayson, with the release of 3 singles from her first industry album, Addicted. As one of the most sought after young and emerging R&B artists on the music scene, she has opened national arena tours for industry giants including T.I., Young Jeezy, Lloyd, and Sean Paul. With crowds selling out into the 16,000s, the shows were a feast for all senses and earned her rave reviews. Originally from Texas, she has graced the stage with other great artists including Willie Nelson, John Lee Hooker, and most notably, the legendary BB King. Appropriately dubbed "The RnB Barbie", she is often compared to Christina Aguilera, Beyonce, and Mary J. Blige.
Giselle joined T.I.s "Live Your Life "Farewell Tour, alongside Young Jeezy, Lloyd, and Sean Paul, launching her career into the world of hip-hop with over ONE MILLION MySpace plays and the music videos topping YouTube charts with over 100,000 plays. After opening national arena tours, Rockin the Vote with BET's Respect my Vote tour, and two consecutive "Best Female Vocalist" Hip-Hop Award nominations, Giselle prepares to release her first industry album, Addicted. With the success of her indie released debut album, Fallen Angel, which sold out at 30,000 physical units and continues to sell as a digital release, Giselle has captured the attention of heavy hitters in the mainstream market.
It wasn't long before the vocal gymnast was in the studio with SESAC award winner Jaylien2010, working on what would become the first three singles from the new LP. The first single, "Google Me B*tch" captured media attention before its release as fans and DJs begged for the track the second the snippet hit YouTube! Giselle takes a moment to stamp her claim on the industry in a big way. The hook asks "Who is she?" to which the R&B Barbie answers "I'm the girl you wish you could be, so go ahead and Google Me... Google Me Bitch!" Giselle's powerhouse vocals dominate over this club-ready hip-hop driven beat, with an unexpected horn section, the track is anything but ordinary.
The second single, aptly titled "I'm a Barbie," Giselle does her part to break down the walls of the stereotypical "Barbie" with this 2nd single. Embracing her naturally vivacious curves she banishes carbon-copy blondes, singing "We don't need another platinum blonde, I'm a Barbie, but I break the mold... I'm a freak in the sheets, but I'm down in the streets, I'm a bad bitch head to toe, I'm a B-b-b-barbie and I'll stop the show." Blondes beware, there is a new Barbie in town... dangerous curves ahead!
Giselle takes it from the studio to the streets with "Who's Got the Power Now." Written by Giselle, and backed by the alienesque layered Jaylien 2010 beat, this track tackles a personal industry experience between Giselle and a former producer. Exercising her aggressive vocal range, Giselle calls him out for everything from shady business to unwanted advances... "I'm like a soldier in stilettos breaking down your door, you thought I was so sweet you've never seen me rage before!" The vocal gymnast murders this edgy track taking us along for the ride.
The early success of the singles is undeniable. One of the first networks to pick up licensing for the tracks, The Style Network, featuring Giselle's music on their hit show Ruby. Completely transforming her image from innocent angel into sultry vixen, the superheated provocative album, Addicted, is guaranteed to make waves and launch her into the international spotlight as Grayson's first industry released album with its debut in 2011. The release of the album will feature a national release tour followed by an international tour to Europe and Asia.
Among Giselle's many accomplishments include, VH1's Top 20 Count Down, working with MTV's Taking the Stage, filming a new MTV Network Series Image Girls staring Poprah from "I Want To Work for Diddy," as well as upcoming appearances on The Style Network's Ruby.
Today, while dedicating the majority of her time to recording and touring, the young singer active in a range of philanthropy. A major supporter of education and keeping arts in schools, she speaks to middle and high school students across the country, encouraging them to work hard toward their dreams and goals. While working on fund raising events for the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, Giselle is also in the planning stages to spearhead a major celebrity charity event in 2012 for Breast Cancers search for the cure.
Sweet Southern charm and powerhouse vocals make this young beautiful girl, simply unforgettable!
