The latest RnB Truth is Laura Izibor. She is the Next Big Thing at American music stage. Her performance at the Legendary BB Kings was amazing.
Laura Izibor sings and speaks, and speaks about every thing “I stayed up until 3am writing a song last night,” she says in a super-perky tone of voice. “Which is weird ‘because, the previous day, I took three separate flights and got four hours sleep? Shouldn’t the tiredness have hit by now?”

I recently did a gig at BB King’s in New York. It attracts a very mainstream audience. And they were all like, ‘what the hell? Black and Irish?’ So I acknowledged it and then they were like, ‘oh well, at least she said it’. They walk away thinking — hey, maybe there are black people in France, too? And in England’.
