"Her voice reminds me of Syreeta's...She's incredible." Stevie Wonder "Moments of Clarity is a compelling and varied chapter of contemporary R&B...Wayna is one to watch. " Essence Magazine "Lauryn Hill is a close comparison...Every track is a pleasure to listen to." Music Monthly "With stellar songwriting, engaging lyrics, and magnetic vocals, "Moments of Clarity" can easily be re-dubbed "Moments of Greatness," and there are plenty of those moments on this project." musesmuse.com "The quality of this project is so real. "Moments of Clarity" is a ground breaking release that is sure to encourange, equip, strengthen and rebuild the uncompleted." Nu Flav Magazine "After hearing her heartfelt harmonies, listening to these lucid lyrics, any woman must wail out in wonder, hail to this powerful poet, this prophetess of positivity...the girl is good." Indiemusic.com "She's a refreshing alternative to an ever so diluted music industry." Digital-DJs.com "It won't be long until [the album is] being mentioned in all of the places where quality soul is the only topic of conversation." Funkjunkiez.com "Wayna is as much a poet as she is a singer -- and she has these wonderfully visual lyrics that are a great contrast to some of the sweeter sounds of the Neo Soul generation." Dusty Groove America "Her smooth blend of pop and R&B will be right at home on the shelf next to Erykah Badu, Zap Mama, and Destiny's Child." World Pulse Magazine Wayna has recently opened for a number of internationally recognized artists on the DC leg of their respective tours, including Fantasia, Amerie, Common, Bobby Valentino, Jaguar Wright, Kindred, and Chuck Brown. She's performed and headlined at renown venues such as the White House (DC), the Temple Bar (CA), the Apollo Theater (NY), the Lincoln Theater (DC), Joe's Pub (NY), Dream Nightclub (DC), the Black Cat (DC), the 9:30 club (DC), Bohemian Caverns (DC), Takoma Station (DC), the Ashford and Simpson Sugar Bar (NY), and the George Dome (GA). |
