The Original Juicy Fruit Tawatha Agee’s Is Back!!!

Tawatha Agee: No *lol*. I was like 13 years old and I enjoyed playing. I had no idea that one could make money from singing. I played in my church choir and I was 13 it was a while back. I just enjoyed doing what I was doing. What got me to Juicy Fruit and continuing to this day. Life was an adventure. I use to like to read and I would read about people all over the world and I was like it would be great if I could do what they are doing as far as singers. I use to read the information on albums, that was a dream that I would one day do something like that. I never thought that playing in my church choir would lead to Juicy Fruit.

You have a song that the young and old know and love thanks to the mix done by New York’s own Biggie and Diddy. Do you feel that they did your song justice?

TA: Yes I was very pleased. It was introduced to a whole new audience. So the next generation got to hear. Juicy is one of the songs that will not go away. The song is timeless. I hope someone does it very soon so that it can be presented to the next generation. Your grandmother knows it, your mother knows it, you know it, your kids know it. That is like the perfect gift. The gift to keep on giving.

Have you ever wanted to try your hand at rapping? If so who would you do a collaboration with?

TA: No. I know my forte. I know what I’m good at. I know I’m good at singing and telling people what to do. I do not think I would be a good rapper. So I stay in my lane, I know what lane I’m supposed to be in. I wouldn’t even try to do that. It would be like are kidding me. I will not have my nieces and nephews laughing at me. I love D’Angel, Jazmine Sullivan, Ledisi and Kendrick Lamar. There are so many people that I love Johnny Gill…I like a lot of people. I can usually get along vocally with other peop\l.e Everybody has something different that they can contribute.

What’s one thing your fans/supporters do not know about you?
