Los Angeles, CA (Top40 Charts/ 6X Entertainment) - Singer/Rapper/Producer/Songwriter/Drummer Tia Parchman aka "Tia P." can be heard on iTunes with her latest single, I.N.G, released by 6x Entertainment; however, with her already receiving rave reviews, she will be heard around the world in no time. With a petite frame and just 5 feet tall, she possesses a huge presence and commands immediate attention when performing. Her soulful gritty voice delivers funky rhythms and well-thought out lyrics while conveying a compelling story.
Tia P. started playing the drums at age 1; her parents knew then that she had multiple gifts to be reckoned with. At age 7, she showcased her writing skills. At present, her stellar writing speaks of someone who has an older soul. She is not just limited to hip hop although I.N.G is a hip hop anthem, she also writes rock, R&B and classical.
An artist at her age, just 15, might be distracted given all her talent. On the contrary, she is a focused student who attends the prestigious Campbell Hall Episcopal School in North Hollywood. Among her favorite subjects, she counts Spanish, Science and English. Tia P. participates in a host of extracurricular activities which include Contemporary Principles Dance, Drama, Jazz Combo, Concert Ensemble, Student Diversity Group, and plays Point Guard for her high school varsity basketball team.
With much responsibility and activities, she still manages to be a kid. Additionally, she enjoys amusement parks, shopping at malls, watching movies, volunteering for her favorite cause, reading books and discovering new things on the internet.
To Record Execs and Tour Promoters; Tia P. is an artist who has major crossover appeal: "My goal is to reignite hip hop and write lyrics that people can relate to...I write music that parents will approve of so that my peers can be enlightened and empowered." Her desire is to tap a wide array of fans so she can speak to their souls and inspire them to follow their dreams. She definitely has the content to fulfill the aforementioned: to date, she has written over 600 songs. And she's only 15!
She longs to have longevity in the music biz like the great Ella Fitzgerald, while also wanting to run an empire like Diddy. There is no doubt that she can do both considering her current work load and tenacious work ethic given her young age.
Her current single, I.N.G is destined to be the anthem for the city of Inglewood. With its bangin' beats and fun lyrics, it tells a keen story while bringing the city to life.
Look for Tia P. on iTunes and coming to a venue near you this summer...she has a powerful voice that cannot be categorized and put into one box of music. Her musical talent runs the gamut of all genres of music. With a distinct voice and broad audience, she can become the voice of young America.
