Olivia

Born in Brooklyn, NY, in 1971 (of Jamaican, Indian, and Dominican descent), R&B/rap femme
fatale Olivia specializes in sultry, smooth, and sexy sounds à la Janet Jackson, TLC, Salt-N-Pepa,
and so on. Born with the talent of perfect pitch, Olivia began developing her singing in the church
choir and by singing Michael Jackson songs for friends, as well as taking voice, guitar, and piano
lessons as a teen, eventually inking a recording deal with Clive Davis' J Records in August 2000.
April 2001 saw the release of Olivia's self-titled debut and hit single, "Bizounce."
