Info for Sneakin' Out

Stacy Lattisaw's third set, Sneakin' Out, produced by Narada Michael Walden and it is a winner. Everything works on this album. The ballads are quite stunning. They include some of her best ; Her cover of HEY THERE LONELY BOY, MEMORIES, DON'T THROW IT ALL AWAY (previously done by Olivia Newton John on one of her '70s LP) and the touching I COULD LOVE YOU SO DIVINE.

Pop touches can be found on the delicious Motown-inspired TONIGHT (I'M GONNA MAKE YOU MINE) and the pop-ish GUYS LIKE YOU (GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME).

But any Lattisaw album wouldn't be complete without the banging dance tracks - and I love the ones on this album. SNEAKIN' OUT is fun and adventurous, ATTACK OF THE NAME GAME (with the great PATRICK COWLEY on synths) is funny and very catchy. It's a bit on the novelty side, but who cares? I'M DOWN FOR YOU is heavy and funky - it also features a great conga solo by Sheila E.

When she was a teenager in the early '80s, urban soul singer Stacy Lattisaw had a string of Top 40 R&B hits, with three songs — "Let Me Be Your Angel," "Love on a Two Way Street," and "Miracles" — crossing over to the pop mainstream. Lattisaw recorded her first album for Cotillion Records at the age of 12 in 1979, under the direction of producer Van McCoy. However, it wasn't until she hooked up with Narada Michael Walden, a former drummer with the Mahavishnu Orchestra who was just beginning a career as a producer, that she became a star. Under Walden's direction, she had five hit albums between 1981 and 1986.

She continued recording into the late '80s, signing to Motown in 1986, but her audience slowly disappeared. By the early '90s, she decided to retire from a music career and concentrate on raising her family.

Stacy Lattisaw
was not yet even a teenager when she recorded her first album. Although she already had been singing since the age of six years old she was well on her way toward developing a vocal style of her own.

She was born and raised in Washington D.C. At the age of eleven, she sang before an estimated crowd of 30,000 people at Fort DuPont Park in South East D.C where she was the opening act for Ramsey Lewis. It wasn't long before Henry Allen, President of Cotillion Records, heard of this young sensation and signed her up posthaste. Stacy continued to on to complete a total of 12 albums during her R&B singing career.

At the age of thirteen Stacy toured with the Jackson's in 1981. She was the opening act on a thirteen-week tour. She also traveled to several foreign countries, some which included Germany, South Africa, Jamaica, London, Bermuda, Japan, and the Bahamas where she performed with some of the biggest names in the recording industry.

As Stacy began to mature in age and mind, her desires began to change. She always felt an emptiness inside that she could not quite understand. After suffering with bouts of depression Stacy began to seek God. Then one day she dropped to the floor and said to GOD "I have heard about you", " I need to know that you are real" and she experienced a presence that she had never felt before. Behold, the emptiness inside had been filled. She is fully committed to serving the Lord Jesus Christ.

She now ministers in word and song. And she often says that everything she's been through has made her who she is today. Her husband Kevin and her own and operate two businesses in Md. God has given Stacy a ministry for women- Women Walking With Authority. She also has a Youth Empowerment program where she goes out to schools encouraging our youth (the next generation) the importance of integrity and Becoming leaders, not followers. Stacy say's she's a well-kept woman, kept by the grace of God!
