Feloni is a hip-hop recording artist from Detroit, MI. Her sound and subject matter is like no other mainstream, female hip-hop recording artist out there right now. You think you know, but you have no idea. Watch her "Coming Out" story on MTV's LOGO channel.
She produces, writes, and is excutive producer of all her songs. In "Brand New" Feloni literally puts the Mack down by flipping the script on male-posturing in an attempt to push the limits of hip-hop's sexuality. "BRAND NEW" stands as a defiant posture against anyone who believes he/she has complete control over a woman. I had a few moments to speak with her, and she has an amazing soul. FELONi is very compassionate and sincere about our LGBT community and music. I've personally been a fan of hers and am excited about her album release in December (Pre-orders are available Oct 12th.) The music industry is known to be cut-throat and it's talent, extremely stand-offish. It was nice just to have a "yap" on the phone like old pals. And, NO you can't have her number. LOL
"BRAND NEW" was also written to give voice to the urban bisexual and lesbian women who are underrepresented in today's mostly homophobic hip-hop culture. Feloni's highly anticipated debut album "A WOMAN'S REVENGE" is slated for release Dec. 12th by her self-owned, independent record label TRAK DIAMOND RECORDS. Visit her site HERE.
In celebration of National Coming Out Day on October 11th, MTV's LOGO channel will be airing it's annual "Coming Out Stories" at 9PM EST. Although I've been OUT for quite some time, it always makes my eyes swell. This year, you are in for a treat! FELONi gave me a little inside scoop, and trust me when I say it's an OUTdistrict MUST SEE! Check your local cable service guide for MTV's LOGO channel in your area. Cablevision, NYC: Channel 179. Until next time!
