Available to book through Champions Music & Entertainment, Fleur is a consummate professional with an incredible voice. She is a versatile artist mastering the genres of R&B, hip-hop, soul, pop, and dance. The London-born artist first rose to prominence in 2005 on The X Factor as part of the girl group Addictiv Ladies along with childhood friends Nicola Owusu-Akontoh, Stephanie Yamson, and Vivienne Umeh.
The group were knocked out in the first-round prompting Fleur to develop her solo act and try to make it on her own. Fleur returned to the scene working with DJ Fresh in 2011 on his album Nextlevelism. Fleur toured extensively with the drum-and-bass producer performing at V Festival, iTunes Festival, and T4 on the Beach. Buoyed by these appearances Fleur signed for the record label Strictly Rhythm releasing two singles (’Broken Mirror’ and ‘Turn the Lights On’) as well as featuring on tracks for Horx, Drumsound & Bassline Smith, and P3000.
Fleur returned to the X Factor in 2014 with a vengeance astounding fans and judges alike. Her rendition of ‘Uptown Funk’ by Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars was particularly powerful with The Guardian describing the performance as; ‘truly astonishing… Fleur barged in and left the competition in ruins. It was two minutes and 53 seconds of all-out attack; possibly the biggest moment that any [Simon] Cowell show has produced since Susan Boyle…’ Fleur’s version went to number one on the iTunes store prompting a release several weeks later.
The official cover reached the pinnacle of the UK Singles Chart. Fleur eventually lost the contest to Ben Haenow but this was a moot point with her single already establishing her in the eyes of the industry. Signing to Simon Cowell’s record label Syco Music Fleur released her first album Love, Sax and Flashbacks in 2015 to great anticipation. With successful singles like ‘Sax’ and ‘More and More’ featured, it wasn’t long before Fleur earned an international recording deal signing with Columbia Records. This burgeoning talent is only at the beginning of her career with excitement in everything she does. Swapping singing for dancing, Fleur will join the lineup of Strictly Come Dancing 2022, joining the battle for the coveted Glitter Ball trophy.
As a headliner, there is no one more contemporary or cutting edge and booking Fleur is a no-brainer for corporate events, private functions, concerts, and music festivals.
