LOS ANGELES — Fresh off the heels of her acting debut in “The Clark Sisters: First Ladies of Gospel,” R&B/Soul artist  Sheléa  announces her highly anticipated single “You Are Enough,” set for release on May 4. The biopic, produced by Queen Latifah, Mary J Blige and Missy Elliot, debuted on April 11 as the highest rated original movie of the year on all of television with 2.7 million total viewers.

The unparalleled songwriter/pianist is intent on bringing back organic singing and songwriting, blending traditional pop, jazz, R&B and soul, as she evokes the sultry energy of Whitney Houston and the piano chops and writing prowess of Alicia Keys.

With “You Are Enough,” Sheléa hopes to inspire listeners with a strong message of empowerment.
