“It not only explains how I feel about Daniel, but how I felt before. The melodic jam with synths and piano riffs instinctually piqued Keyshia’s interest and she was eager to record. Reflecting on her career, KEYSHIA humbly acknowledges “the realities allow people to come into my life to let them know not only am I speaking from a place they can understand, but also they can see that I’ve been to the bottom and made it to the top.” The first single from CALLING ALL HEARTS, “Long Way Down,” was co-written by Keyshia and its edgy yet sultry video showcases her fiancé Daniel in the edgy yet sultry video. By her 2008 third release, A Different Me, Keyshia not only debuted #1 on the R&B chart for a second time, but captured the R&B Top 10 singles chart with “Playa Cardz Right” featuring 2Pac, “Trust” featuring Monica and “You Complete Me.” The groundbreaking album garnered Keyshia four Grammy nominations, including Best Female R&B Vocal Performance and Best Contemporary R&B Album, and an American Music Award nomination. Her 2ndalbum, 2007’s Just Like You, debuted at #1 on Billboards R&B/Hip Hop chart (#2 nationally) and was propelled by three #1s, the platinum “Let It Go” featuring Missy Elliott and Lil’ Kim, “I Remember” and “Heaven Sent,” while “Shoulda Let You Go” featuring Amina hit the Top 10. In addition, she has amassed six Top 40 hits on Billboard’s Hot 100 singles chart in the span of five years. To date Keyshia has scored two #1 R&B/Hip-hop albums and seven #1 singles, two of them platinum. Being transparent is nothing new and has resonated in her music since her 2005 debut, The Way It Is. KEYSHIA’s journey is reflected in the depth she brings to each song on CALLING ALL HEARTS. The undeniable connection between the two not only transformed Keyshia’s heart, but also soon after the birth of their son, Daniel Jr., she was able to pour out her heart in signature fashion to complete this, her 4th album. “I decided when I did get back into the swing of things I’m not dealing with anyone who’s not on my level.” Enter Daniel “Boobie” Gibson, point guard for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
