| Biography: | AFTER RECEIVING 2005'S "RAP ARTIST OF THE YEAR" TITLE BY THE ATLANTA UNDERGROUND AWARDS, STARR FOUND HERSELF IN A WEB OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS THAT WOULD EVENTUALLY CAUSE HER TO SERVE TIME IN THE COUNTY JAIL. THIS WOULD BE THE WAKE UP CALL THAT CHANGED HER OUTLOOK ON LIFE. SHE BEGAN RECORDING WITH ANTONIO "FOREVER" MOBLÉY, CREATING A CATALOGUE THAT WOULD TURN ANY SERIOUS MUSIC PUBLISHER'S HEAD.
THE MAXI-SINGLE, 151, WITH 3 BONUS TRACKS IS AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD ON MYSPACE'S SNOCAP STORE JUNE 4TH AND IN STORES JULY 1, 2008 THROUGH HER COMPANY, BROADZ WAY ENTERTAINMENT. STARR VOCALS ARE A PITCH HIGHER THAN HER NORMAL LAID-BACK TONE ON 151, GIVING THE SONG A NEW SIDE TO HER PORTFOLIO. THIS RE-INTRODUCTION TO THE INDUSTRY, FOLLOWING THE UNDERGROUND SUCCESS, "DA KANDI LADI," IS MUCH ANTICIPATED AND HAS SUMMER-TIME CLASSIC WRITTEN ALL OVER IT. WHEN ASKED ABOUT HOW THE SONG CAME TO LIFE, STARR REPLIED, " WE CAME UP WITH THE CATCHY CONCEPT OF 151 DUE TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD'S MOOD- MOST PEOPLE WANT TO BRIEFLY ESCAPE... EITHER AT THE CLUB, A RIDE IN THE CAR, OR A SOCIAL SETTING WITH FRIENDS."
