When most people hear Columbus, Ohio they immediately think about the Big 10 college power house Ohio State Buckeyes. But here are a few names you might not know that are connected to the city & state: John Legend (Popular R&B singer), Bow Wow (Popular Hip Hop Artist), Bizzy Bone (Member of Hip Hop Group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony), Philip Michael Thomas (Well known Actor), Randy “Macho Man” Savage (Former Pro Wrestler), Michael Redd (NBA AllStar & 08 Olympic Gold Medalist) and Jack Nicklaus (Golf Great).
I have one more name that will surely be added to this star studded list in the months and years to come…and HER name is TaNeal. This young artist has the urban style of Lauryn Hill and the soul of Mary J. Blige. Her soulful voice will simply blow you away and it’s evident when you listen to her bellow out songs without the assistance of a hot track or synthesizer. She’s taking it back to the old school where you really had to possess the talent to sing live if you wanted a career in the industry.
Somebody better tell the Buckeyes and the rest of the boys to make room because TaNeal is here to stay!

Bio
Reminiscent of the urban style of Lauryn Hill and the grittiness of Mary J. Blige, R&B and Soul artist TaNeal explodes on the scene with her own unique blend of talent and realness.
With the upcoming release of her new single Love N Harmony TaNeal is sure to make a huge impact in R&B and Soul music. The song is written by Antwan Walker and Lakisha Missy Burnette and is produced by Isaac Barfield and Robert Williams and mixed by Bryan BBanga Johnson whose production credits include Juelz Santana, Gucci Mane and others.
Producing, writing, and performing keeps this rising star busy. But TaNeal's journey started as many others: singing since childhood in the church and on the middle school playground with friends.
Then one day things took on a completely different perspective when she noticed how her singing touched others- brining them to tears. At that very moment she realized music is not only her gift, but her destiny. The passion for music became the sunlight this wilted flower needed most.
TaNeal's many accomplishments include opening for Bad Boy and MTVs Making The Band stars Day26, performing at the Star Jazz and Blues Lounge in Atlanta GA, winning the 97.9 FM WNCIdol competition and singing the National Anthem for the Major League Soccer World Cup Champions The Columbus Crew.
