Chrisette Michele Payne (born albums as Jay-Z 's '' Kingdom Come '' in the second official single " Lost One " and three times in Nas ' '' Hip Hop Is Dead '', in its second official single " Can't Forget About You ", in Kanye West -produced "Still Dreaming" and the final track "Hope". Her single "Your Joy" was recently released on ITunes as a free single of the week. Michele's mother and Nas were raised in the same Queensbridge housing projects, a connection which inspired her to reflect on childhood memories in her own forthcoming Def Jam debut album. She sings in a jazz style reminiscent of past singers such as Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald . She is of Native American, southern African American, descent. The daughter of a deacon, she led gospel choirs in high school and college, and refuses to make music that is at odds with her strong Christian moral code. Michele's debut album " I Am " is currently in stores now. http://www.dallasblack.com/site.aspx/entertainment/chrisettemichelealbumout
