Yaneira De Jour- “One Life” - (audio)
Yaneira De Jour made a rare move for women in urban music: To establish her imprint, Paper Dollz Entertainment, and set her first digital (EP) release, THE OUTSIDER, for this fall. Utilizing what she learned from internships with Universal/Motown and Interscope Records, and outsourced production, this warrior is moving full speed ahead. “We been dependent too long, waiting for someone else to give us the green light. It’s time to do it ourselves”.
Up for the challenge, this creative misfit sharpened her technique while studying at the Rutgers University Performing Arts department. Along with artistic fine tuning, she took the time to learn the business. “Before Rutgers, my vision was hazy. I was always talented, but… I had to find my own way”.
A young mother, once on welfare, Yaneira De Jour created THE OUTSIDER as a comment for those alienated by social norms. “In Newark (NJ), women like me have so many hurdles. Our respect is hard earned”. For those who refuse to back down in the court of public opinion, Yaneira De Jour shows real life through her eyes with conscious thought and reason.
Taking her poetic rhyme style in combination with her smooth vocals, this wonder-child went outside the box to share her personal soundtrack. With epic songs like “One Life”, she is setting a new standard in music with strength , power, and liberation.
“I exist to inspire. If I can’t do that, What’s the point?”
