Patra the queen of the pack, queen of dancehall, and known reggae diva is back! The talented, and sexy diva has touched the scene once again and has everyone wondering “Where I’ve Been”, which is the name of her entitled new album, including, “Man Dem Thriller", "Black Cinderella", and “Where I’ve Been”, scheduled to be released on Wall Street Entertainment. Patra’s new album premiers sexy and mature vocals comprised with live instruments of reggae and R&B that she promises to deliver for all her fans and reggae dance hall lovers.The new album "Where I’ve Been" is her third follow up album from her 1995 Scent of Attraction release and her 1993 release Queen of the Pack; that held 13 consecutive weeks at #1 on Billboard’s Top reggae album charts which was the longest holding of the number 1 spot than any album that preceded it. Her gold certified album, Queen of the Pack sold over 500,000 copies that contained collaborations with major artists like Lyn Collins, the P-Funk Horns, and Christopher Williams. The album also included the hot single “Think” (About It) which was a team up of Patra, Lynn Collins, and the P-Funk Horns; a creation of a reggae, dancehall and R&B sound from Lyn’s 1972 Top Ten R&B hit.
With all eyes on Patra, she released her first single “Hardcore” with Epic Records which put her on the map, as her first solo release in the US, which had already been buzzing the natives of Jamaica. Patra began her future, which has led her back to us here today, with her first debut as a guest spot on “Really Do It” with Mad Cobra and “Body Slam” with Richie Stevens. These tracks gave the world a taste of what the sexy and sophisticated Patra had to offer the US mainstream listeners.
After her announcement of talent and individuality through her solo and debut projects, Patra’s three singles that had been released from “Queen of the Pack”; Queen of the Pack, Worker Man, and Romantic Call (featuring Yo Yo), all hit the top ten on music networks like the box. After this success, the Caribbean Music Awards, the International Reggae Awards, and the Reggae Music Awards noticed Patra, where she gained identities of best female artist, best female DJ, and best song.
In 1995 Patra released her sophomore album Scent of Attraction, which included collaborations on the hit singles (Scent of Attraction) with Aaron Hall, (Hot Stuff) with Salt-n-Pepa, and the smash remake of Grace Jones' Pull Up to My Bumper.
With Patra’s two double hitters Queen of the Pack (1993) and Scent of Attraction (1995), Patra released several single collaborations with some of the most recognized artists in the industry of their time, which proved her to make anything that she touched hot! With her titles of dancehall queen to a reggae diva, Patra has not been forgotten for her ability to produce sexy, fluent, mixtures of R&B, and reggae that has been pleasing to the dance crowds.
Now back with her new album from taking a break, Patra has teamed up with some heavy hitter producers, to create a mature and vibrant sound, such as Baby Paul, Kris Haskins, and some of the hottest producers in Jamaica, while writing all of the songs on the album herself. While very confident about her close team of musicians on this album Patra says, “I’ve worked with different producers like Baby Paul and lots of different people here in Jamaica because what I would like people to know is the majority of my new album, is all live instruments, I play with a live band, and I have the drummer from Third World. I have been fortunate to work with some the most famous producers in Jamaica, and the album is 90% live and it’s all about Sensuality”!
Now that Patra is back with a new mature edge, the reggae diva has definitely grown into a different person, personally and vocally through her extensive vocal training and self-spiritual finding. Patra has gained more experience in the industry, and can now truly express how she feels. Patra describes herself in comparison to the old Patra by saying, “I know what I’m feeling now, and I have more experience in the world”. These experiences are evident through Patra’s new sound and lyrics of love and life stories. She is happy and ready to please her fans with her sexy new sound and is focusing on taking reggae music to another level as a Jamaican female artist. Patra is back on the scene with a promise to bring her fans a vibrant and sexy sound that will fill the reggae gaps of today.
