Book Keyshia Cole
Keyshia Cole has earned four Grammy nominations and is known as the Princess of Hip-Hop Soul for her raspy, emotional soprano and songs drawn from her own life. Born and raised in Oakland, she worked with Bay Area artists and producers before moving to Los Angeles and signing with A&M Records. Her debut album, The Way It Is (2005), entered the top ten of the Billboard 200 and produced the hits "I Should Have Cheated" and "Love," and its success inspired the BET reality series Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is, which premiered in 2006. Just Like You (2007) opened at number two and became the biggest album of her career, led by "Let It Go" with Missy Elliott and Lil' Kim. A Different Me (2008), with "Playa Cardz Right" featuring Tupac Shakur, was followed by Calling All Hearts, Woman to Woman, Point of No Return and, after signing with Epic in 2016, 11:11 Reset (2017). She has headlined the Sky Tour, A Different Me Tour, Woman to Woman Tour and the Love Hard Tour in 2024, and her life story became the 2023 Lifetime film Keyshia Cole: This Is My Story.
