Today, Southern California based record label Blessed Beyond Entertainment releases R&B singer Drea Dominique’s party friendly new song, “Catch My Wave.”

Produced by A.C. Burrell (Ty Dolla $ign, Ella Mai), and joined by Compton rapper AD, “Catch My Wave” is the lead single to Drea Dominique’s upcoming project titled Drea’s Toy Box and is accompanied by a fun poolside party video for official release on September 18.

“Catch My Wave pretty much means, ‘Can you pick up what I’m putting down?’” Drea Dominique said. “AD and I are mutual friends on social media and so as a collective we decided that he would be good on the song. We have a video for Catch My Wave and we also have a second song called Waiting that is a sensuous ballad, but the idea behind the EP is that all my stuff is different within my musical Toy Box. We’re just in my little Toy Box and when you dig around, you’ll hear all types of cool and fun songs!”

Often remembered for her role on Bad Girls Club Season 9, Drea Dominique is not shy to the spotlight having been a model in videos for Snoop Dogg, The Dream, Baby Bash, Robin Thicke, and others.

“I did some modeling over the years for King Magazine and I was featured in Straight Stuntin,” Drea Dominique says. “Yes, I’ve been on Bad Girls Club. I came to the show with the mindset of showing girl power, I was embracing being a bad boss type chick; but the rest of the house seemed to be there for the drama. I didn’t go in looking for a fight, but the fights definitely found me.”

While gaining attention for her looks, Drea Dominique always kept music close to her heart after performing regularly with her friends in San Diego.

“I’ve always loved music which is my true passion. I was in choir during school, but before I decided to embrace my own personal music, I used to sing hooks for my friend Bassem G in San Diego. Then last year I decided to invest in my solo project and here we are a year later,” Drea Dominique explained. “I decided I’m just gonna get in the studio, it’s been a passion, but I never really fully embraced it; yet here we are.”

Despite COVID and a down year in the music industry, Drea Dominique is using the time to focus on her new lipstick and eyelashes line called HeartSpace by Drea, which is now available for sale on her site, DreaDominique.com.

“We were getting ready to launch and we were looking at a tour, but everything has been on hold with COVID. Getting in the studio is tough because everything is on lockdown, but I hope it changes soon,” Drea Dominique says. “I have lots of new music, a lipstick and eye lash line; hopefully, you all will like it!”

Behind the Scenes: Deja Destinee’s Creative Process and Musical Inspiration

Published

on

The music industry is an ever-evolving landscape where artists must find their unique voice to stand out. In a detailed conversation, the grind of music and creativity were dissected with candor and passion by Shah Cypha and the multi-talented artist, Deja Destinée. They unpack the essence of Deja’s brand, her perspective on the music industry, and her multifaceted ventures beyond music.

The Genesis of a Brand: A Personal Story Through Music

The brand an artist creates is often a tapestry woven from their personal stories. For Deja Destinée, her name carries a legacy and an inspiration that fuels her artistic presence. “Deja Destiny is destiny… My first name was by my sister… Named after Tyra Banks’ character in Higher Learning… Destiny was named by my grandmother before I was born,” she recounts. This personal lineage adds depth to her music and offers her audience a piece of her narrative, creating a genuine connection that transcends the rhythms and lyrics.

In the music industry, the background behind a name often holds a significant weight, and Deja’s is intertwined deeply with her familial ties. Her music doesn’t just offer sound; it provides listeners with resonance, a shared experience that taps into the emotional fabric of the listener. This personal touch has become a beacon for her brand and her music, positioning her as an artist with a story to tell, a history to honor, and a future to shape.

Commanding the Stage: Performance as a Reflection of the Artist

A major theme from the discussion centered around Deja’s approach to performance. Stating that music comes as “first nature,” it’s evident that her on-stage persona is where she truly shines. Describing her performances, Deja says, “I give a lot of cocky energy. When I get on the stage, I usually bring my dancers, I have, you know, the flashy custom outfits… it makes them feel good, and for it to make them feel like they really that b\*\*\*h.”

This attitude exemplifies the confidence and showmanship that Deja brings to her craft, setting her apart in a crowded industry. The energy of a live performance, where the artist and audience feed off each other’s enthusiasm, is particularly crucial for Deja. Each show becomes an intimate conversation between them, a shared moment of empowerment and celebration of talent. It’s in these details that Deja’s commitment to her artistry, and her desire to elevate the music experience, shines brightest.

A Nexus of Creativity: Beyond Music

During the conversation, it became apparent that Deja is not content with being pigeonholed as just a musician. With interests in acting and entrepreneurship, such as her unique skincare line *Co-Skin*, she relays, “I do hair, I do makeup, I have my own like, skincare line doing shea butter… It’s so many things that I feel like I can tap into.”

Her tenacity to take on multiple creative endeavors showcases not only her talent but her understanding of the importance of diversification in a modern artist’s career. Deja leverages her platform in music to venture into other areas of interest, broadening her reach and solidifying her presence both in and out of the music world. This blend of artistry and enterprise spotlights a new generation of artists who are as business-minded as they are creative, indicative of the changing tides within the industry.

The Future Sounds of Success: Deja’s Continual Growth

As the conversation turned towards future prospects, Deja Destinée laid out her vision of evolving within the industry and her plans to be a game-changer. With new music on the horizon, including the engagingly titled single “ATE”, and a role in the upcoming film premiere set for June 6th at Newark Cinema, Deja’s grind is relentless.

Echoing her earlier sentiments on the significance of grinding, she reiterates, “To work and put in the work… when you don’t want to do it, put in the work then, too, because in the end, it’s gonna pay off.” It’s with this unwavering dedication and drive that Deja Destinée forges ahead, paving her path with an unshakeable belief in her art and her ability to influence the industry.

Deja’s narrative is one that is building upon the foundations of authenticity, perseverance, and an uncompromising vision for what she wants to achieve. With a solid grounding in the values instilled in her name and approach to music, the future beckons with infinite possibilities, each one an opportunity to further the imprint of Deja Destinée on the world.
