Welcome to the Sugaland Experience, starring Suga SP. Who is Suga SP you ask? Many words can be used to describe her...she's funny, crazy, loving, caring, wild, eccentric, daring, spontaneous, witty, edgy, funky, sexy, talented, foxy, brains and a stone cold beauty. In other words, she's an Urban Rockstar. A singer/songwriter who grew up in Hampton Roads, VA, Suga SP (aka Serena Perkins) found her love of music while singing in her church choir. She began performing in local talent shows, and, along with best friends Alvonia Branch, Ebony Haywood, Monica Allen, and Tanika Jennings, formed the adolescent vocal group "Chalant". The group gained momentum as they showcased their extraordinary talents in venues such as Showtime at the Apollo. Under the management of Troy Carter (Sanctuary Group Inc, Eve), Chalant opened concerts and performed with many top artists such as Lucy Pearl, Cameo, Morris Day & The Time, Parliament Funkadelic, Kelly Price, Avant, Timbaland, Rodney Jerkins, Boyz II Men, Missy Elliott, and Teddy Riley. As "Chalant" disbanded, Suga SP went on to join the girl group "Paradise". Albeit short lived, Paradise blessed many in the 7-cities with their soulful original sound before parting ways in 2002. She then became 1/3 of the trio "3 Times a Lady," whose alluring self-titled hit blazed the airwaves of NSU and left audiences wanting more. Determined to live her solo dream, Suga SP pressed forward and honed her talents with vocal coaching and training. Her training paid off, as her solo debut "Steady Hatin" entrances listeners from VA, DC, NY, Germany and beyond. Suga SP has a funky edgy style heavily influenced by a range of artists, including Betty Davis, Teena Marie, Whitney Houston, Jimi Hendrix, Lenny Kravitz, Andre 3000, Deangelo, and Kim Burrell. She's an individualist whose popularity has grown remarkably in a short amount of time. Her following is as loyal to her as she is to them, as she continues to crank out smash hits such as "Hurry" and "Untamable," produced by Gerome Clawson, son of sax/jazz artist Najee, and hit makers Dezperawdos. She lives by the motto "live life like there's no tomorrow, live to the fullest and don't look back," and it's clear in her music and her sound that she's unstoppable and truly an Urban Rockstar.
