S-Curve Records Signs Soul Legend Betty Wright | Nominated for Best Traditional R&B Vocal for “Go”.

S-CURVE RECORDS SIGNS SOUL/R&B LEGEND BETTY WRIGHT FOLLOWING 2011 GRAMMY NOMINATION FOR UNFLINCHING NEW SINGLE “GO”

SONG’S FRANK LOOK AT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE EARNS WRIGHT BEST TRADITIONAL R&B VOCAL PERFORMANCE NOD

Soul/R&B
legend Betty Wright has signed with S-Curve records following a 2011
Grammy nomination for her bold new song “Go!” in the Traditional R&B
Vocal category. Recorded live and clocking in at ten minutes long, the
song takes a gritty, unflinching and ultimately courageous look at
domestic violence.

Wright is working on an album in her
hometown of Miami that S-Curve will release later this year, featuring
guest appearances by Lil Wayne, Snoop Dogg, Joss Stone and others. She
wrote and produced “Go!” in addition to performing it.

S-Curve
Founder/CEO Steve Greenberg said “S-Curve is thrilled to have Betty
Wright on our roster and honored to be able to release her
Grammy-nominated single ‘Go!’ The song contains a powerful message
against domestic violence, which is delivered forcefully by the
legendary Ms. B. Having worked closely with her in the past on Joss
Stone, Tom Jones and Diane Birch, I’m happy we are finally getting to
work with Betty on her own album.”

This is not the first
collaboration for Wright and Greenberg. In 2005, they were nominated for
a Best Pop Album Grammy, along with co-producer Mike Mangini, for their
work on Joss Stone’s ‘Mind, Body, and Soul’ LP. The three teamed up
again in 2008 to produce two tracks on Tom Jones’ acclaimed album ’24
Hours.’

Betty Wright, a 14-time Grammy nominee as a writer,
artist and producer, including a Grammy win for Best R&B Song
(“Where Is The Love”), has been an R&B trailblazer for over 40
years. She released her first hit, “Girls Can’t Do What The Guys Do” at
the age of fourteen and recorded her million-selling signature song
“Clean Up Woman” at age eighteen. She was the first female artist to
achieve gold record sales via her own record label, Ms. B Records. She
has collaborated with everyone from Stevie Wonder to Alice Cooper,
toured with Bob Marley, and has done vocal production for the likes of
Gloria Estefan, Jennifer Lopez, and Joss Stone. She served as vocal
coach on P Diddy’s MTV series “Making The Band.” She continues to mentor
new talent to this day.
