BIO

The talented Dancehall Reggae diva has emerged from her lengthy hiatus to a symphony of curious minds; everyone wants to know where she has been? Her journey embodies trials and victories she has experienced; the path that is aptly known as; “CHANGES”.

PATRA began her career in Jamaica when she debuted as a guest feature on “Really Do It” with Mad Cobra and “Body Slam” with Richie Stephens. These tracks gave the world a taste of what the sexy and sophisticated Patra had to offer. The rest is now history...

"I'm ready for the world now; free from the braces and vices". Many will not be able to handle the new woman, her new out-look and her new strength and poise. "I have managed to come to grips with all that had affected me before, the effects of which have had a profound impact on me positively"...

Her new image, sexy and mature vocals echoes a richness and quality like no other, complimented by live instrumentation of Dance Hall Reggae and R&B at its best. The record promises to deliver a new sound and direction for the Diva incomparably known as "The Queen of the Pack” and is scheduled to be released in 2008 on the +Plus Entertainment imprint which is her very own. “I want to be in control of what decisions are made concerning my career now or at the very least; be absolutely aware of all that surrounds me!” She has become the master of her own destiny.

The new album aims to please her audience. This is her third (3) official studio album follow up from her 1995 album – “Scent of Attraction” and the 1993 top Billboard Reggae album holding the number one (1) spot for thirteen (13) weeks – “Queen of the Pack”. The album (“Queen of the Pack”) later went on to gain Platinum sales status (1,000,000 copies sold). The new album showcases the works of many major producers, songwriters and accomplished musicians such as; Billboard Award Producer of the year EDDIE GALAN; Arthur Whale; Damien Gayle; Steven "The Genius" McGregor; Byron "Bobby" Treasure; Dean Frazer & Co.; Glen Browne; Dalton Browne; C-Infamous and Alex Martin to name a few.

PATRA has returned with a new edge, fueled by a vibrant personality, spiritual presence and a radiant aura. As a seasoned professional, she possesses immense vocal strength now, honed through extensive vocal training and a new found confidence. The lengthy break from the industry has afforded her the mastered skill of true self expression. “I know what I’m truly feeling, with impute to express it”. She further adds; “I have more experiences now as an artist and as a woman; I am ready to embrace it all and silence the competition along with the critics of my work and determination”.

These experiences are evident in PATRA’S new songs and she is focused on taking Reggae Music to another level as a Jamaican Female Artist.

PATRA promises to bring her fans a sound and repertoire that has never been heard from her before now…

She intends to reclaim her rightful place; only she can acclaim. The “Queen of the Pack – is Back!!”
