A few  weeks ago I had the plea­sure of attend­ing a small and inti­mate affair at the Juke House in the His­toric Jazz Dis­trict of Kansas City, Mis­souri which fea­tured the soul­ful R&B singer Tee­dra Moses. If you have never heard of her, she is a voice that needs to be heard!

Some of her most recent projects have been with rap artists Wale and Rick Ross since being signed to May­bach Music Group. Her first album Com­plex Sim­plic­ity debted in 2004 releas­ing sin­gles, “Be Your Girl”, “Res­cue Me” and “Back­stroke”.  Since 2004 she has released 5 mix­tapes. The most recent mix­tape is Lux­u­ri­ous Under­grind. My favorite song by Tee­dra Moses is “Backstroke”.

Her new album The Lioness is set to come out some time in 2012.

Beyond being a tal­ented singer she is also a very accom­plished writer. She has writ­ten songs for artists such as Rapheal Saadiq and Mary J. Blige. One song you may have heard with song writ­ing cred­its from Miss Moses is “Dip it Low” by Christina Milian.

If you have never heard any of her music check out www.teedramoses.net  and down­load her mix­tape for free to get a taste of her musi­cal stylings.

Before Miss Tee­dra hit the stage, local artist Lee Langston gave the crowd a won­der­ful per­for­mance! I like events like this because it was a small inti­mate crowd and it allowed me to relax and unwind after a long stress­ful week.

There was a happy hour, live band, local per­for­mances and then Miss Tee­dra Moses hit us with her beau­ti­ful voice.

So what did I wear you ask? Well for some rea­son I had an itch to wear all black (sur­prise, sur­prise). I started from the shoe up. I wanted to wear my black and gold bootie from Shoe Dazzle.

Cute? Yea, I thought it was too lol. I decided on black leg­gings, plain black top, black blazer and gold accessories.
