Among these that offered opportunities were Kevin Black, Michael Holden (Stevie Wonder's team and producer for Coolio's "Gangsta's Paradise") who was in A&R for Warner Music Group at the time, Universal Music Group, and many others.
Saydah continued to hone her skills as an artist and also had the privilege of working with the industry elite on all levels, such as Preston Glass (the late Whitney Houston's song writer), Larry Moore from The Main Ingredient, Brutha (Def Jam Recording artists)--who she was asked to perform with for the late Michael Jackson's Birthday party in Germany (2006), including a brief stint of being managed by David Anthony and P.J., Wu Tang Clan, and many others.

Being a Basa Princess from the Basa tribe has allowed her to perceive the world in a unique light. That light is what she brings with her into her music that she both sings and writes, with her striking vocal and instrumental composition. With her 8 octave range and stunning stage presence, Saydah is a mighty force that will have you coming back for more!
