A protégée of Chicago-based producer/songwriter Steve "Stone" Huff, Ketara "KeKe" Wyatt is an R&B singer who has been influenced by urban contemporary and hip-hop, as well as classic soul. Wyatt's sleek yet gritty work brings to mind Mary J. Blige, Faith Evans, Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott, and other hip-hop-influenced urban singers who emerged in the '90s. However, her debut album, Soul Sista, indicates she is also well aware of the contributions of Baby Boomer favorites like Chaka Khan, Deniece Williams, and Patti LaBelle -- one of the tracks on Soul Sista is a cover of LaBelle's hit ballad "If Only You Knew." Wyatt now lives in Kentucky but was born in Indianapolis, IN, where she grew up listening to a variety of R&B and gospel and came from a very musical family. Both of her parents sang in church; her mother was a vocalist, her father an organist.
