CriStyle Renae

Soul. Passion. Power. Singer/Songwriter CriStyle Renae embodies them all.  The South Florida native’s magnetic vocals are infused with a special soulfulness…and it comes naturally. R&B/Soul has been in her musical DNA for as long as she can remember. “I was the baby of the family by 10 years, so I was able to absorb the music of my parents and my older siblings. I was listening to a little of everything.” Her love of music spans back to childhood where she was largely influenced by legends like Isaac Hayes, Donny Hathaway, Anita Baker, Luther Vandross and The Isley Brothers. She realized her talent at the age of 6, as her older brother would coax her to mimic current artists of the time. From then on she knew she had something special. Over the years she has honed her talent to become an artist who reflects the same love, light and warmth that her vocals resonate. CriStyle relishes the connection formed between an artist and the audience. She loves to perform live. “Performing is a communion, a sharing of energy and love. There is nothing like being able to fully express your art and give the audience a piece of you”, she relates. Her debut single, Why Me, is a fan favorite but has also received rave reviews nationally and around the world as a result of internet radio play, iTunes and CDBaby.com. Her debut album, Signature Of Love, highlights everything from the ups and downs of relationships to anthems of self-love and empowerment. The music is primarily R&B/Soul but has tunes that flirt with Jazz, Blues and even Hip-Hop elements. The album is brimming with heartfelt lyrics and melodies.

CriStyle’s presence on the music scene is undeniable. She has been honored to grace stages and venues throughout the U.S. and the Caribbean. Whenever she performs CriStyle always hopes to touch people and evoke the same feelings that she gets from her favorites like Anita Baker, Rachelle Ferrell, Chaka Khan and Donny Hathaway. "You watch these tremendous artists give, what I consider to be, master classes in singing and performing...I stay inspired by watching them.” CriStyle is poised to make an indelible mark on music. Her time has come.
