Ganstress

Southern Rap Sensations Khia is the original Thug Misses aka The Queen Of The South and when she steps to the mic, thugs and thug misses stop, look, and listen. This lyrical goddess is releasing her new album, Gangstress. Famous for her Gold Record, "My Neck, My Back," from the album Thug Misses, Khia has been touring relentlessly for the past four years. "Being out on-the-road touring, doing a lot of shows, going overseas, it all motivated me to make this album. The response has been great. I'm a realist, but I love what I do." That raw, brutally honest realness is evident in Khia's first single from Gangstress "Snatch The Cat Back," an ode to Khia's own brand of modern female empowerment. Khia's songs have an irresistible tunefulness and catchiness to them and the production on Gangstress is impeccably clean, allowing Khia's smooth, signature vocals to rise above the dirty south beats and synthesizers. With explicit lyrics as provocative as they are self-aware, Gangstress extracts the roughness of the streets and matches it to the smoothness of Khia's creamy voice. What's most surprising about Gangstress is not the overt sexuality of the songs' lyrics, but the sheer willfulness of their creator and the reflective, pensive nature of her rhymes. To date, Khia has sold over 800,000 records, but she never forgets the reason she's on top. "My fans recognize my realness, and I'm always touring, no matter where. I love to interact with my fans, because at the end of the day, it's all about them!"
