Episode Transcript

(00:00):
You are black in the green room with me, your host Keith Underwood.

(00:04):
And this is your spot for real talk about entertainment with entertainers, creatives, and showbiz professionals.
Today, I'm honored to sit down with the true powerhouse in music Latasha from her iconic beginnings
with that legendary group Escape to now stepping fully into her solo artistry.

(00:26):
Latasha is showing us all what evolution looks like. She's said to release her brand new single Love Unchanged,
a soulful and powerful record that speaks to her growth and resilience.
As she gears up for a promotional tour, including a stop right here in Los Angeles,
she's ready to share not only her music but her journey. Latasha, what's up and welcome to the room.

(00:51):
Oh, thank you Keith. What's going on, man? I'm just blessed to be here.
Yeah, me too, me too. So what's happening good right now right here in Latasha world?
Life is happening with things. Good people. People are hitting me online.
I think once I came back out with the song Residuals, I did the cover of Chris Brown's That Challenge.

(01:15):
I wanted a studio and I was like, I'm going to come from my heart, sing from my heart,
and it has reached so many different people. I'm excited just by them sharing their stories with me,
just by me going on and doing that song. A lot of great things have happened.
So listen, I'm just in a good space. All right, all right.
So, you know, let's talk a little bit about this new single Love Unchanged.

(01:36):
What's the story behind it, Latasha? And how does it represent where you are in your life and your music right now?
Well, the title of the song is called Love Changes. And it is all about the transformative power of love.
So, we all know that love can heal. It lives, it reshapes you.
You know, so many ways that you've never imagined.

(01:57):
So, I just wanted the song to reflect, you know, the beauty of that journey.
Learning how to embrace love, whether it's romantic self-love or just love that we share with family and friends.
So, I just hope that the song resonates with people because it comes from a deep and personal experience for mine.
And you know, when they say when it comes from the heart, it reaches the heart.
So, that's what I intend to do with this song, but I can't wait for you to hear it.
Yeah, me too. I'm looking forward to it.

(02:20):
So, what, why, why right now? Why did you feel the need to like right now that this is what I have to do?
This is a message I got to put out there.
Well, you know, I love the thing. And that's the part of me that just will never go away.
That's something that has been instilled with me since I was a little girl.
And music has been my therapy. And the reason I say now is because when it hits home and you know,

(02:43):
like when you have an assignment on your life, you don't have to act.
It just happens and things that happen just happen that way. So, with music with me, when I feel it in my heart,
I just give it that way. So, it's always the right time for good, for good music.
Yeah. What, what part of you mentioned earlier that your personal journey was part of the inspiration for the song?
If you don't mind, what, what was part of that personal journey for you that led you to wanting to do this song?

(03:10):
Well, the ups and downs of life.
And then love from family and friends, even the situation with my sister and I, you know, we kind of haven't been on the right speaking terms.
And because even after the song residuals, I was able to reach her through music.
So, that's how powerful it was. And I share my story because that's what it is when you write songs.
It's about storytelling. And I think the best way for me is coming from my heart and in personal experiences, I draw that way.

(03:35):
You know, that's the creative process for me. So, it was important for me to tell my side, you know, just speak from my heart.
And I think people, when they know that it's real and it's genuine, you know, it does something for them because I'm also hearing from them, their stories.
I had an interview the other day and a young lady shared her story with me about her sister in that fact that because I sang the song, now she wanted to reach out.

(03:56):
So, the music is impactful in that way and I think I have to do it this way because that's how it reaches others.
Yeah. You know, that is very interesting that she said that because, you know, we always hear that families and people they have love languages.
And it just makes sense since that's something that you and your sister share is music.
Yeah. That's your love language and that you were able to reach her in that way. I think that's beautiful.

(04:20):
Man, it's impactful, you know, when you think about it, even with my family, a lot of people have heard that song and now we are coming closer together because you know, you get inundated with work.
And so many different things in life, but that music that God has given me that gift is allowing me to share it. And with that being said, I just, I can't stop.
I feel like I have a mission of assignment on my life to do that. And you're right. That language, my sister and I speak is still relevant today.

(04:47):
Like we both use that to speak to one another. We're not around one another. And that's just a beautiful thing.
And I also love the fact that you said that it's reaching others. So it's funny sometimes when you know, when we concentrate on home and family first, you know, how that then that message, that ministry can spread and reach other people.

(05:09):
Yes. Speaking of ministry, that's what we're from the church. So you know, how that is, you know, you listen to the pastor and you take all the good things that he, you know, tells you from Biblical terms.
So the same thing with music, you take bits and pieces that what you need and you go out into the world and you be impactful in that way as well.
Mm hmm. Yeah, I love that. And so then, you know, being an R&B artist and a gospel artist, what's different about the two for you?

(05:38):
It's really not anything different. We're singing, I'm singing songs that resonate with people, singing with conviction, the same way in church, you know how you get up in church and you sing a song. And if the crowd is swaying, you just go harder.
I come from a church that listen, if you couldn't do it, they would tell you like, girl, you need to sit down.
Right. Have several seats.
I come from a church that was very honest and so when you're getting on the stage and you're singing songs, you're singing it to make sure that people feel it. And I've just taken that same approach in R&B.

(06:10):
So R&B and gospel, it's not that really different. You're singing, you know, lyrics that you hope, you know, permeate people's hearts. So I don't know, it's just the same to me. I don't know, you know, other than that is the same.
What's the most unselfish thing about music for you?
The unselfish thing about music?

(06:31):
Yeah, the giving. What's behind the giving of music that's sharing of music?
Sharing of music.
I think just unselfishly just sharing your story, sharing how you feel, sharing the emotions that come along with it. That's the unselfishness of it.
And it doesn't have any color lines like it's color blind. So to me, when I think of music is just that.

(06:55):
Right. And why is it, why is it important for you to reach, you know, this, this global audience with your music?
Just using the gifts. I think that when, when God gives you a gift, it's supposed to be shared. It's not just putting a box in just why I'm where I'm from, you know, just being able to use it.
I've been able to help shape people's lives and people have come to me later saying, you know, you know, real stories like I was going to commit suicide and I, you know, I heard who can I run to or I listen to you seeing or me being able to sit with young women and give my story and they and changed their lives.

(07:30):
So it's just important music does that. And I think that I don't want to be put in a box.
So that's why even what you're saying gospel and R&B who knows the next thing may be country.
Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, yes, absolutely. And I think that that for me as an artist is what I'm supposed to be doing. I don't want to put a ceiling or a cap on on the gift.

(07:52):
And when you do that, you explore so many different options and just reaching millions of people. And that's what the gift does.
So let's actually you're your journey and music. It's really been incredible and huge and envious for some people.

(08:32):
But if we you know, come on now, you know, you know, you know, I'm telling the truth.
Oh, my God. But if we rewind, what was that moment when you knew music was your calling that it was your thing?
And again, how much did that calling play with your church background play into your church background?

(08:53):
Well, the calling definitely played a lot, you know, when it comes down to my background, I grew up in a singing house. So my father, minister, writer, singer, my mother, singer and a writer.
That's all I heard every day, just very powerful voices in the kitchen around the house. And I was always mesmerized by it. And then my father also saying with his brothers, they were called the Scott three.

(09:15):
And every day I would get up and just listen to the harmonies and it inspired me to want to do that. And I think the pivotal moment for me was when I was in church and everybody else was kind of doing speeches and getting up.
And that just wasn't my thing, but my dad was like grabbing microphone on what you just seeing this. And when I was seeing, you know, it was just something that kind of took over me and I would look at the audience and I saw how it moved people.

(09:38):
And I'm like, I can move people in this way and it was just an unforgettable experience that I said, I have to take this everywhere. I go, I wanted, I have to do this.
So I have to give that to, you know, the inspiration for my, my dad and my mother and my mother wrote so many scripts at the church and it was just a thing for me.
So I learned that at home. And that is where it comes from. And then also the church with the foundation that we have. So, man, that's just where it comes from.

(10:05):
You know, I'm in addition to, you know, being a personality, I'm also a writer, but you know, when I was younger, it took me a minute to have faith to believe in my writing and then share it with other people.
Was that, was there a similar journey for you when you began songwriting?
Almost, I think because I was very young and I saw that every day, you know, when you're being taught how to do it, it's a little bit easier than just doing it on your own and just like, oh, this is what I like, maybe somebody would like it.

(10:36):
But my dad would always instill that like he would include me on what he was doing, whether he was writing a song and it made it a lot easier for me.
I will say when I got on the stage, though, I was always shy and I would close my eyes and sometimes he would say, oh, be eyes and look at everybody. And then when I would, I would see the effect.
So it was a gradual transition from being shy to the person that you see now, but it's always that way when you have something and you're just trying to make sure is this something is this real, you know, do people with people like it.

(11:06):
So I truly understand what you're saying, but for me, my dad, he kind of ushed that in for me to say, okay, and he made me stronger with the pen as well, because I would do things he like, no, try it again, you know, and he was seeing something and I would try to mimic it.
And it was a little bit easier for me when it came to song writing now when I got in the industry, though, as a female, that was hard because a lot of everything was male dominated and a lot of times I would try to write in the beginning.

(11:31):
And they were like, okay, you know, you don't know this part. Let us help you and it would be a song written by Jermaine to pre or someone else.
But I will always try to infuse whatever it was because I was the reason that we even had living in vain on the album, because I'm like, we have to do a gospel.
So we can I was kind of learning the business at the same time. It was not very, it was very tough in the beginning.

(11:52):
Yeah, how did you find your power being a woman in the industry? What gave you finally to say like, okay, I've got to have that to be honest.
I said, would say I had to find my own voice. You know, and listen, that's an ongoing process to be honest with you.
True. I found my voice after Jermaine kind of listened, you know, with a lot of the things that were going on with harmonies.

(12:18):
And I would say try this and when we would try it, it became successful as when he started to listen.
So I would say the success had a lot to do with it, you know, because when living in vain came, I think he didn't even know who the car sisters were.
And it was important for me because I grew up listening to the car sisters. I'm like, I have to we have to pay homage to them at the same time.
I want to stay true to what this is. So it was always a process. Nothing was ever easy. And I think even now I have to kick down doors.

(12:45):
But I'm okay doing it. I'm okay doing it because somebody behind me is going to come and say, okay, she opened that door for me.
And that's important. The same way, Patelibale Whitney Houston, you know, Jody widely opened the doors for me.
So yes, I have to be that, but no, it's always it's it's working progress to be to be a female and be, you know, operating in this space.
Mm hmm. You know, you mentioned a lot of influences, including including the church. So you have the church and then you have all of those fantastic female artists that you just mentioned.

(13:16):
How do you how do you find your own your own voice and incorporate those influences, but still have your own unique style?
You know, it's it's cool to be inspired by people. I think that's important as we're walking through life. You know, you you take a little bit of here a little bit from that person and you gain, you know, strength and knowledge.
But at the end of the day, you always have to be true to self. And that has been instilled with me, you know, early on be know who you are.

(13:44):
And when you know that you can take certain bits and pieces and still remain, you know, authentically you. And that's the most important part just being you.
And it's not easy for some people because you get sidetracked because a lot of times things are trendy. But me coming into this industry is like it was important for me. First of all, I'm faith driven and the remain just that fast and what that is and not changing.

(14:08):
I'm not a seesaw. I don't sit on the fence. You know, a lot of people like girl, you the like of the don't I'm like, well, that's who I am.
So just stay committed to who I am and I would advise anybody in this in this industry, even if you want to get an industry know who you are. Because so many times people can tell you things.
And if you don't know how to say no, you will do things that are not in line with your purpose or not in line with your assignment. So I'm very careful.

(14:32):
Just be you know with that being me.
Yeah. Yeah. What what did you learn like on a so that's, you know, a broader sense of finding your voice.
But did you learn did you learning the lessons from those ladies when it comes to like business how you handed your business in music.
Handling business. Not so much because I never really had the business conversations with them.

(14:57):
But just being confident and and being a female in the industry and staying, you know, committed to to your true self is what I learned from all of them.
Especially with the Houston and we did have conversations just about love and family. And patty libell as well, just the way that she's been able to structure her life and going to be an entrepreneur.
So certain things I've learned just watching them. But as far as the conversations of just the business side of things, no, not so much.

(15:23):
But as I watch them, I'm learning because the mistakes that they've made and the things that they've been able to overcome have helped me in my life.
So big ups to them. I stand on their shoulders and I'm proud to say that those people have inspired me so many ways.
Yeah. So we've talked about, you know, the music, the voice, the some of the influences. But what about style, Natasha?

(15:46):
You know, for me, I think that you have impeccable style when it comes to your stage, your stage presence.
So how much is your how much is your fashion style playing to your confidence or how you connect with the audience?
I don't know. You know, when when I speak to people at meeting Greece, they always say, girl, you touch me when you kicked your foot up or you started singing it, you know, you got to have a ugly face.

(16:11):
You can't have a pretty face with your face. So I think when I'm singing, it's just that. I think I'm all the way in it. I'm all the way involved in the lyrics. I'm emotional.
So that emotion just transfers to people and they always come up to me. So I don't know if it's a style. I just think that I just sing with conviction because I understand what the music is. I understand what the lyrics entails.

(16:33):
So if that's what the style is, then so be I guess that's the style of Natasha, you know, sometimes to be honest, keep I'm not even aware that I'm kicking up my leg.
But I get on the stage. People like, girl, when that leg went up, maybe tell you something, I felt it, you know, so I'm like, wow, so I guess that's like a signature thing for me.
But just being in the, I get in in it. I'm all the way in when it comes down to the lyrics and just performing. I love that part because you connect with people so much that way. And I'm looking in the audience. And the same way, like it wasn't church when as a little girl, when I see you swaying and singing along and you know, snapping your fingers and your dancing, I feel like that's something that my gift has touched you.

(17:11):
And I have to keep that going. So yeah, I don't know. Is it a signature of the style? Is that what that is, Keith?
You know it's a flow. It's a vibe. I got it. Yes. I like it.
And what about fashion? So we'll be talking about the style of, you know, like I said, your vibe. What about fashion? What about much this fashion play into your persona?

(17:33):
Well, you know, I've evolved.
Yeah.
I was keeping mind. We had the baggy jeans on and we were dressed by a male, which is, I love it. You know, as we were going along, but everything has been an evolution for me. And I'm still evolving. I'm looking at, you know, high couture, like high fashion now. And I love it because I'm taking pictures of people like, oh my gosh, you look so devinary.

(17:57):
It looks so cute. I'm like, wow, is this what it comes down to? But I like being a girly girl and putting on those clothes and at the end of the day, it's not the clothes that define me. It's not what's on me. It's what's in me. And I think what's in me. I'm just going to continue to share.
But yeah, if you see me with the couture on just know that it's a beautiful dress that let's just wearing. But inside, I want people to know that I have so much love to give every day. And that's what I strive for. Just giving love and being positive and being impactful.

(18:25):
So if it's the clothes, if it's the kickin' of the leg, if it's, you see me, you know, at the shows that you coming backstage, I just want to give love and let people know that I understand. I see you because I understand what it is to live in this life and go through ups and downs and sing good songs and love on my people. So that's what it is for me.
Yeah, I love that. And I'm glad that you talked about that emotional, you know, part of music for you.

(18:50):
But I'm always curious with being an artist because you know, I was an artist in the past. Well, I guess you're always an artist, but you know what I guess.
Oh, yes.
But part of it is part of it is that love of the art. But then some of it is ego. We do want those positive strokes and that positive feedback from people.

(19:13):
How do you level that in your mind and then how much of it for you is wanting that positive feedback from people and then some of it or a lot of it sharing your talent with people.
Well, I like to say she said ego. So I'll put them together. I'm emotional about my craft. And you do have to have a sort of ego in this industry that let people know, no, I have stay in power. I'm confident in what it is.

(19:41):
I'm going to put it together and say, Ego, so I know. Come on. Come on. When it goes to know.
I think I'm an emotional artist person. And of course when you're singing, you want people to to fill it in and it resonates in that way.
But at the end of the day, yeah, as an artist, you're serious about your craft. You know, you hone in on what that is. And you take that everywhere you go. You take it and stride.

(20:02):
But for me, yeah, I'm an emotional artist. So you have to have you have to have a little bit of ego.
Yeah, look, look, Tasha, you know, this business is no joke. Music is no joke. I started out in A and R. So I know, no, no, no, yes.
Yes.
The beginning. That's the development. Absolutely.

(20:24):
That is no who is who's your, it's so important to have somebody that has your back or somebody's that have your back.
Who is that? Who is that for you? Or who has that been for you? And who is that for you now?
There's not one particular person that I feel outside of God that's really put into me. I will have to say I have a village. I have a family.

(20:50):
I have people around me who are very genuine. And I keep them around me and I cherish that because so many times you have yes men and they tell you, oh, you're just this and that you're great.
I have people around me. They keep it up 100 every single day and and it's helped me to be the person that you know that you see.
So my mother, my grandmother, my aunts, my uncles, my cousins, my friends, the people that work with me, they keep me updated and every day like my everything to the post like everything is there.

(21:18):
So I say my family, my village that I have, they keep me going, they keep me committed to doing the right thing and also allow me to be vulnerable because in this space, it's very hard because you let yourself out and everybody take advantage of it.
They take advantage of all of the things that you know, you hold to be true. So I surround myself with people who who first of all love God that have my best interest in those of who are going to be very genuine and honest with me.

(21:43):
And that way I can be vulnerable even in my music, you know, those people people don't see the people that kind of support you and they go, oh, you're just a big superstar, but I have a team of people that help me be who you guys see.
So and I'm very thankful for that, but it's not one particular person. I'll say God first, but my family for sure.
And why is it important to have those inner circles, let's, I mean, like, especially in the social media, you know, era, we see people, they put it out there, you know, all over the place, whenever they're going through something, but why is it important to you to have that inner circle and that safety net as opposed to just blasting everything on social media.

(22:24):
It's important for my mental. It's important for my spiritual as well, because I can go and speak to my grandmother and it's a whole different conversation and speaking with my friends. My grandmother is going to give me wisdom.
Well, beyond my years and give me the spiritual connection that I need to stay grounded.
My mother, she gives me and you know, just advice on, you know, my family relationship. So it's just important to have, you know, so, so many different people that kind of steer you in the right direction.

(22:53):
Always let God be the pilot, you know, but you always have to make sure that the maintenance is taken care of on on any plane or anywhere that you're going, you have to have those people to make sure that you it runs properly.
And I have those people that tweak me have those people that keep me saying, but it's about the mental and the spiritual part of everything for me.
I love that.

(23:15):
[Music]

(23:40):
So outside of, outside of music, let's show how, how important is it for artists for artists to expand their brands for, you know, not only for, you know, financial growth, but then also for sustainability and stability?
Well, it's important for you always share whatever is that you that you have your entrepreneurial hat is allows you to maintain and have money later, you know, they talk about that later money.

(24:10):
That's what that is, but also being able to use your gifts and talents to share. I know for me, I put out a cookbook in 2020.
2020 was just one of the craziest years that, you know, I can even imagine, and we all can imagine with the COVID hitting. And I always said, you know, I wanted to walk in my purpose.
And I noticed that I wasn't able to go out and saying, you know, me grace on the stage is everything to me, but I could not do that.

(24:34):
And I went to God and I was like, I want to continue walking my purpose. What do I do? And he just put it on my heart because we toured in 2017 and 2018. And there were so many people coming up to me saying, hey, let's actually, how did you lose the weight?
And I was trying to give them everything and like in a crash course, like you do this, you do that. But 2020 came a guy goes, you remember the people that were asking this, still walking in your purpose, tell them about healthy eating.

(24:57):
Take to the cookbooks. I ended up writing the cookbook and sharing my story about, you know, being a big girl in the industry and how I was talked about in that way and learning how to create a lifestyle for myself, you know, with better eating habits.
So if I didn't put that entrepreneur hat on, I wouldn't have the things, but people calling me now saying, you know, I changed their lives with food because they were calling some people like, okay, my dad had diabetes and now he has him.

(25:21):
No, he hasn't no more cancer has gone away. So it was all about eating healthy. But if I never had taken the time to say, let me do something different outside of music, then I wouldn't even know that I was impactful in that way.
So you always got to go back to, if it's something in your heart to do, go do it, you know, sometimes we get people say, oh, you shouldn't do this, you shouldn't do that. But if it's in your heart to do it, do it because you never know the outcome.

(25:44):
And not just for your personal experience, but what you can do for others. So I would tell people that go for it, don't stop, don't let the ceiling be the cap.
Yeah.
And what I like what you said about, you know, the body shaming element of the industry is that, yeah, it might have affected you on a personal level, you know, hearing that.

(26:13):
But then you also realize that there were health benefits behind it as well. So it was, it was truly a life change and not just because some men and possibly some women said, oh, this is what you're supposed to look like.
Right. In the industry and you keep in mind, we came out in the 90s and back then, women were wearing fitted dresses, you know, you have people, you know, they were looking cute and doing that thing.

(26:38):
And we came out with baggy pants and after a while, you know, people started to kind of point fingers and I was always, you know, the one they was like, okay, you get to the back because you know, you're big and arrested girls.
So yeah, that was very hurtful. But, you know, I just took that and and tried and say, you know what, I can do something about this. Let me turn my life around and then in doing that, then even know that God was shaping me to help other people.

(27:02):
So when I'm talking to young girls now and some of them may be a little overweight and I say, listen, you can change your life and I've been able to do that just telling them how to eat.
So sometimes we go through things not knowing that it's not just for us. It's for other people. And that's why it goes back to what you were saying. It's cool to be an entrepreneur. It's cool to do other things because you never know through your past experiences, how you touch lives and always tell people don't let the past be, you know, your anchor, let it be a launching pad.

(27:30):
So that's something that you take and you launch certain things to become successful. And then you gave money from that as well. So you win and don't look at that.
That's right. And it's a win-win.
Yeah, and I love that. And I think that more people should understand. You know, they always say, you know, if you're doing something you love, you never work a day in your life.
But also if you're doing something that's you're passionate about and where you're able to help other people and you're able to get paid.

(27:58):
Yeah, that's real. Listen, that's a win-win. That's how I look at it. And it's still being fulfilled. You still being fulfilled in an amazing way.
Yeah. Yeah. So tell me a little bit about some of your business ventures. Let us let us know what you're doing. Let's ask.
Well, I have the main girl. I have my main girl clothing line and it is an athlete's aware for women. And I've always felt like, listen, this is the highest form of Pima.

(28:28):
When you put these clothes on, you just feel confident. You feel comfortable. And so many times we don't feel comfortable in our skin. And that's just the correlation that I want it women to feel powerful in these clothes.
So I have the main girl athlete's aware and then I also have my foundation where I give back and I empower young girls to find their voice and to be strengthened in the arts.
So, you know, I go out and sometimes they come to me and we go to the studios and we sit down and allow them to see what the business is like.

(28:54):
Sometimes they want to get in the business. They don't know the nuances about it. And they go, I just want to be a singer until I take them in the studio and it's hours and hours and they go, oh, no, I'd rather be an engineer or I'd rather be a writer.
Because they see the long hours that are putty and they say, I don't want to do this at all. But I feel like the platform that I have is for that. So I have the foundation.
What else do I have going on? I have the cookbook that I have a cookbook already out and I have a new one that I'm working on.

(29:20):
So just keep in my name out there and stay in, you know, passionate about what I'm doing. Because when you're passionate, people feel it.
And then one day open it up a restaurant. I'm really looking forward to that where people can come out and get real good soul food and, you know, I come and love on them and, you know, all of that.
Yeah, that's so when you're when you're working with these young, these young people, I won't just say young adults, young.

(29:46):
Yeah, when you're working with these young adults, what are some of the most common questions that they ask you and what are some of the most common answers that you give them?
Well, first of all, you know, a lot of them say, how much money you make? I'm like, wait a minute.
You in my pocket right now. You in my pocket.
Yeah, see how much work it takes to get to this.
You know, ask me that and they asked me, did it happen overnight? And I go, no, this is all work in progress. They also ask, was it easy?

(30:14):
And I tell them no. And I'm just transparent and very honest with them. And I think with me talking to them, I share more light and they see themselves.
You know, a lot of times when we were younger, we, I didn't see me on television talking about cooking and plant based.
So I'm giving them, it's okay to say, oh, no, I saw Tasha do it. It's possible.

(30:35):
So that just having the possibility. So yeah, they asked me millions of questions. Keep, I mean, some very personal.
But, um, just they really want to know about the business. They really want to see and I want to teach them because sometimes books just don't do it. You have to kind of be hands on.
And I give them the hands on approach. And it's just powerful to see and they, they get it.

(30:56):
Yes.
They really get it.
Yeah.
