Sam Salter

Sam grew up singing gospel music at Faithful Church of God in Christ in Los Angeles. Growing up, Salter won several local talent shows, with a vocal style that was influenced by Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder.

In 1997, Salter had his chance in music when his demo tape found its way into the hands of L.A. Reid of LaFace Records. He quickly signed Salter, and Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds began to work on his debut album, It's On Tonight. The album didn't become a huge hit, yet it yielded two hit R&B singles, the Top 20 single "After 12, Before 6" and the Top 40 ballad "There You Are."

In 2000, Little Black Book, Salter's second album for LaFace Records was expected to be released, yet label shuffling and problems led to the album's shelving. It yielded one single, "Once My Shit (Always My Shit)". An album track from the LP, "Color Of Love", written by Babyface, was later given to Boyz II Men for their first Arista release, Full Circle and it became the lead single. Additionally, a track that was only available on the album sampler (not the advance version) titled "Homewrecker" was later given to Sisqó, and included his Return of Dragon LP. (Sisqó's 2000 hit Incomplete was also originally recorded - but unreleased - by Salter).

In 2005, Salter appeared on a CD single called "On A September Morn", as apart of a group called Talking Book. Currently, Salter is now in the studio working on his third album, tentatively titled Strictly For Da Bedroom, and was set for release in 2013. Tracks slated to appear include the title track as well as "How Low", "When My Heart Cries", and "Work". Two songs have leaked thus far, called "For the ladies" and "Right Way".

Tai

Born Leanne Combs in Sacramento CA, Tai was raised as an Army brat, growing up listening to Whitney Houston and Selena. Destined for the music industry, Tai began singing Whitney Houston’s ‘Greatest Love of All’ at the age of 6 and Selena’s ‘Como La Flor’ at the age of 16. When Tai was 16, she recorded her first demo singing her rendition of ‘Como La Flor’. After moving to Columbus, GA, Tai was recruited by Marvelous Enterprise and became a member of the girl group ‘By Design’ along side Orchid Bradley and a then unknown Keri Hilson. By Design began performing, opening for acts such as ‘112’ and ‘Kandy’ looking for that opportunity to be the next successful girl group. Being called the next ‘Destiny’s Child’ made the groups future look promising but, misunderstandings and the pressures of the industry cut their rise to the top short. The group disbanded and each member went her separate way, leaving Tai to pick up the pieces of a broken dream and push on. Tai began writing what would later become songs that appeared on her debut solo album. Signed to Sagipion Entertainment Group, LLC in 2011, Tai is back on course to becoming the successful artist she set out to become.
