Fierce received her artist name from the streets of the south side of Chicago as her style, hard hitting lyrics, and forceful flow surprised many people as she was very short and petite and looked like the most innocent girl next door. Fierce has been writing, rapping, and competing in spoken word competitions since she was 11 years old. As she approached her teens she quickly moved into battles and often walked away a winner. She is perhaps known best for her versatility, she can meet a person at whatever level they are at and speak their language as being from a military family she is well traveled and has had the privilege to mix and mingle with people from all over the world in all classes.

Her lyrics and flow tell the entire story of how she earned the street and stage name Fierce. She often writes from the perspective of a person in a situation and she has a limitless imagination. She is also a great story teller which makes her the perfect spoken word artist. She also overflows with intense passion and guarantees by the time she gets done you will be feeling her from 500 miles away. She has the ability to connect with an audience no matter who she is speaking in front of and take them on a journey that they will want to stay on for life. Her trademark is to always leaves the audience wanting more. Her art is just as mysterious as she is, always full of twists and turns and the unexpected. You never know what is going to happen next. She has a smooth flow that anyone can relate to as she is also a conscious poet. You can only expect one thing from her, several more great things to come in the future, she consistently delivers a punch everywhere she goes, there is not such thing as her entering a room and walking out unnoticed.

So hold on tight, you are in for a ride, her freshman album, Verbal Quiet Storm, which explores all aspects of a relationship from the time you first see him or her right on into marriage.

KJ Anderson is quickly becoming a well known photographer, model, entertainment CEO, and graphic designer in the Detroit area. As a child, he was constantly involved in performing arts and behind the scenes work in the arts. His first love was dance, but overall he loved performing and directing. He often would make up plays and choreography and then demand that his family come out and watch his productions. His sense of fashion and modeling inspiration came from his dad who was always well groomed and stylish. His father put a lot of effort and time into how he looked. KJ has always been multi talented and put several productions together as his first big break to be seen came through his church in his teens. KJ performed at Greater Faith For Deliverance from the time he was a toddler as the adults of the church recognized there was something special about him. They provided a platform for him to grow and learn and eventually word about KJ’s productions got around the congregation and groups that he led were soon invited to perform for other ministries around Michigan. This in turn gave him the experience and confidence to audition for several different roles in the entertainment industry and gain even more experience.

One of those auditions landed KJ on the Urban Dreams dance team at Michigan State University. He was on the dance team for 4 years performing for crowds of up to 9,000 people. This experience led to opportunities for him to meet people further up the chain in the entertainment industry as the group held performances such as Fake the Funk, which was hosted by BET personalities as well as performed at celebrity basketball games. During KJ’s time in college he began to explore his career in modeling. He soon got tired of asking other people to help him with photo shoots as well as material to promote himself with so he soon began learning skills such as graphic design and began to take his own pictures. He decided to take courses in marketing and advertising to further advance his knowledge in the field and to better market himself. He learned many priceless lessons that continue to impact his career till this day. His degree is telecommunications, information studies, and media. The classes he took to earn this degree included everything from wiring computers to working for a company like ATT or Comcast, to working as a radio personality. KJ combined his book knowledge and the college experience with artists and other public figures he studied such as Janet Jackson. Janet Jackson was a huge impact as he saw her live on an HBO special for her album, Velvet Rope. He loved her creativity from fashion, to the dance routine. Sean Combs and Tyra Banks also had a huge impact on his newly gained skills as he noticed they did not wait for someone to present an opportunity, but they created their own opportunities.

Together Fierce and KJ have combined their knowledge and talent to form their own entertainment company, Vre7.com. VRE7 is quickly making a name as it was seen at the 2008 BET Hip Hop Awards on the red carpet and more.
