Bio
Seasoned singer, songwriter, vocal producer/arranger, dancer, entertainer and entrepreneur, Oleathia “Butta B-Rocka” Robinson has been diligently putting in work across markets and borders. Butta has redefined the term “versatility” by showcasing her vocals and composed pieces for ears in the US, UK, Germany, Holland, Japan, and across genres from pop, rock, gospel, country and rap. Between her background vocals, demo recordings, and stage performances her résumé boasts work and assistance with international superstars, Grammy winners and performers like Akon, TLC, Nas, rock group Collective Soul, country singer Zack Brown, Japanese star Namie Amuro, Belgium megastar Sandrine, and countless other talents across the globe.
A Kentucky native, Butta B-Rocka began her musical journey from a very young age when she started performing in school plays and trumping talent shows around Florida and Georgia. After moving to Atlanta, GA as a teenager, Butta attended Chattahoochee Technical College. Not long after the self-taught songwriter/composer decided to set aside her computer science training in order to put music at the forefront of her life’s work.
After a car accident rendered her hospitalized for several weeks, and out of commotion for nearly two years, Butta’s career came to an abrupt standstill. However, armed with a passion and desire to succeed, Butta quickly found her way back to her true passion and aligned herself with some of the top people in the entertainment business. She soon became the “go to” person for recording vocal demos for projects from international stars like TLC and Akon. Butta also began working with producers signed to Dallas Austin’s label and collaborated with Little Zane on his single “None Tonight” off his album, Young World, The Future. This strong beginning for Butta would lead to a flourishing career and increased work on an international scale in songwriting and performance vocals.
Growing stronger and more confident in her capabilities as a musician, Butta started work on her own material. Early in 2010 she released her independently produced debut album, Switch Lanes. Her sound has often been described as a cross between Rhianna and Pink with a hint of Keri Hilson. Switch Lanes represents a world where “music is music and you can’t put it into a box” explains Butta. She drew from her international experience and repertoire to create an album that “is universal in its pop offerings and crosses genres with ease providing catchy hooks and strong vocal arrangements” She continues. Switch Lanes reflects a soaring collection of funk, pop, hip-hop and rock music. The intricately produced album captures Butta’s alluring presence and incredible vocal range.
Excited about her future, Butta B-Rocka has pushed audiences to pay close attention because the bar has been raised, and high expectations set. With hard work, determination and unique style Butta will unquestionably leave a lasting legacy on the music industry worldwide.
