Ashley Nicole - Pull The Plug
Since I've already got you in an R&B mood with the last two posts, I think it's the perfect time to introduce you to Atlanta singer-songwriter Ashley Nicole. If you're trying to recall where you've seen her from, you may have seen her performing on BET in '09 as part of Tiny & Toya's now disbanded group.
After being mentored by stars like Tiny (of Xscape), Ne-Yo and Usher, the songstress is ready to take the music world by storm as a solo artist. Check out the Boogie Wizzard penned and produced ballad "Pull The Plug" that captures the vulnerability one feels when making the decision to let go and end a relationship.
