Worth The Wait...Absolutely, According to Lovely the opportunity to become a major recording star had to wait. It was a hard decision, but when she was presented with a recording contract, Lovely decided to forego the record deal to pursue her academic goals. Lovely says,
"I was going to college and it just wasn't the right time. My goal and focus was my education. I wanted to learn, grow and mature into a young adult. I didn't want to give up this important stage of my life."
Now, R&B's Newest Artist, Lovely Hoffman is set to establish herself with her first release and ready to deliver in 2007. After already having major success performing on shows with Ne-yo as well as T-Pain during his two day tour in Boston, Lovely is now positioned as R&B's Newest Face and is anticipated to carry in new energy, new sound and new style.
The release of her debut single,
Can't Wait, on
100 Decibels Music Group is making major noise. Mixshow and club djs have been giving it great reviews and it is expected to move up the charts quickly.
As a singer/songwriter, having co produced the single, Lovely says,
"it feels good that radio is accepting and appreciating new material from a new artist. Although I've been writing for many years, this was a big step for me as Can't Wait is my debut release and I wanted to have a major role in the creative process. I wrote the lyrics, came up with the vocal arrangement as well as the melody, so it feels good that people are felling the song and accepting what I have done."
Lovely attributes her singing and writing style to many great Gospel and R&B artists. Her influences include Fred Hammond, James Moore, The Truthettes, Milton Brunson, Mary J Blige, EnVogue, and Whitney Houston. Lovely even credits Brandy,
"Brandy is one of my favorite contemporary R&B singers I think she is great."
