2. ALGEBRA BLESSETT

Born and bred in Atlanta, R&B artist Algebra’s hometown roots run deep. A fifth generation Atlantan, Algebra attended Fulton County Schools for her primary and secondary education then with a music scholarship enrolled in HBCU Morris Brown College as a business major with a minor in music. The singer/songwriter discovered and developed her vocal talent in Atlanta, honing her craft working with local superproducers like Dallas Austin and Bryan-Michael Cox. Atlanta both raised and made Algebra and she continues to call the city home and maintain a strong connection to the ATL community. Given the unique name, "Algebra," by her mother and father, Algebra Felicia Blessett grew up in a religious household deeply rooted in gospel music where mother was a minister, gospel singer and bassist. While music was in her DNA and she loved singing in the church choir, Algebra resisted the urge to pursue singing professionally. Although she had originally wanted to attend the prestigious North Atlanta School of the Performing Arts to become a professional dancer, she was accepted after auditioning with a song.
