Come To Mama-Lina
Shelina Wade (born in Denver, Colorado), commonly known as Lina, is an American R&B and soul singer and songwriter.
In 1998, Lina got her first big break as a songwriter by penning a tune for Tyrese’s self-titled debut album. Lina proved herself to also be a solid songwriter, penning “Ain’t Nothing Like a Jones” for Tyrese.
Lina began her career in 2000 when she signed to Atlantic Records. Following her record deal, was the release of her first album, Stranger on Earth, which was introduced on August 21, 2001. The album sold 45,000 copies worldwide. Stranger on Earth received a strong critical response for its blend of R&B with swing and vocal jazz. The title track was a cover version of a Dinah Washington track.[2] The album featured the singles “Playa No Mo”, “It’s Alright”, “I’m Not The Enemy”, and “Don’t Say Nothin'”. The first single “Playa No Mo” became a minor hit, reaching #46 in UK, while the album reached #89 on the Billboard R&B and hip-hop album chart. Stranger on Earth was placed among the Top 10 R&B Albums of the Year by Billboard Magazine. It was named the #1 R&B Album of the Year by Tower Records’ “Pulse” magazine, and #1 album by cdnow.com. Nevertheless, Lina asked to be released from her contract and Atlantic granted her release; three months later she was signed to Hidden Beach.
