Monica Blaire
Songwriter & Entertainer
Panelist – 2:15 pm, Thursday, April 7th – Edgy Practices: Creatives Making their Mark
From Mozart to Mainstream, eclectic is the way to describe Blaire. From early on this musical retro child has been singing and writing since before she could remember. As a child classical training in the arts helped her to develop skill and a true love for music and its influence. As time passed hip-hop became the love of her life and her many musical influences collided to make a truly unique MC/ Singer/ Songwriter. Working with Motown greats form Marcus Belgrave, Sylvia Moy, and Ortheia Barnes to modern day movers and shakers Carl Craig and PAJAM this woman is poised for versatility and greatness. In addition to choreographing, styling, and staging for various artists, her writing credits include Ramiyah, The J Moss project, Vanessa Williams, and numerous R&B up and comings.Firmly rooted in the sound of early soul music and inspired by an unconventional sense of rhythm and melodies, MonicaBlaire is more than an artist. She is an experience.
