Badia defined means "original creation," which is exactly what she is! Also affectionately known as "Lady Rose," she coined the term R&B Soul + to describe her music. It is a fusion of Jazz, R&B, Funk, Rock and Soul. Her music and delivery is reminiscent of the great singers who have paved the way such as Carmen McCrae, Chaka Chan, Randy Crawford, and Aretha Franklin. Musically, she has easily been compared to the likes of Curtis Mayfield & The Brand New Heavies. Her music and style have been described as a cornucopia of intrinsic styles, melodic vocals, and radiant energy.

With a M.A. in Music Theatre from NYU, she has been seen in the Broadway Tour of "Little Shop of Horrors," National/International Tour of "Rent," Lincoln Center's "Tribute to Alan Menken," Off Broadway Runs of "Sistas: The Musical," "Things To Ruin," and countless other productions including "Sister Act the Musical," and "Dreamgirls" to name a few. She was a background singer for "America's Got Talent," and played a featured role on a CBS Primetime Drama.
