Biography of Priscilla Renea

Priscilla Renea Hamilton, known professionally as Priscilla Renea, was born on September 4, 1988, in Vero Beach, Florida, USA. Her father served in the United States Navy. Renea began singing at the age of two, but as she grew older, performing in front of people became less comfortable for her. She didn't enjoy the music that was played on the radio, so she decided to write her own songs that she would like to hear on the airwaves.

Early Career and YouTube Fame

Later, Priscilla discovered the world of YouTube and started uploading videos of herself singing in her own room. She filmed and composed the songs herself. Eventually, she gained over 30,000 subscribers, which helped her become a contestant on the MTV show "Say What? Karaoke."

Debut Album and Success

Priscilla Renea signed a contract with Capitol Records and released her debut album, "Jukebox," in 2009. While the album didn't make it to the top charts, it received positive reviews from critics. The first single from the album, "Dollhouse," reached the 11th position on the "Heatseekers" chart and the 31st position on the "Hot Dance Club Songs" chart.

Songwriting Career

In addition to her success as a singer, Priscilla Renea has established herself as a talented songwriter. She co-wrote four songs, including Cheryl Cole's popular single "Promise This" and Rihanna's hit track "California King Bed" from her album "Loud." Renea continued to write songs for artists such as Madonna, Miranda Lambert, Chris Brown, Selena Gomez & The Scene, The Saturdays, Demi Lovato, and Pitbull.

Later Projects

In 2013, Renea collaborated with American rapper Bobby Ray Simmons Jr., known as B.o.B, on the song "John Doe" from his album "Underground Luxury." She has worked in various genres, including R&B, pop, soul, and electropop, and is known for her guitar skills. Despite the commercial performance of her debut album, Priscilla Renea has made a significant impact as both a singer and a songwriter in the music industry.
