Karyn White Biography
Karyn White (born October 14, 1965) is a Grammy Award-nominated R&B singer who was popular during the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Karyn Layvonne White was born in Los Angeles, as the youngest of five children. She sang in a church choir and worked as a backing singer, then sang on Jeff Lorber's single "Facts Of Love" before signing to Warner Bros. Records and releasing her debut album in 1988. The album Karyn White was produced by Babyface and sold almost 2 million copies. It had the hit singles "The Way You Love Me," "Secret Rendezvous," "Superwoman" and "Love Saw It," a duet with Babyface.
Her follow-up album was Ritual of Love in 1991. It had songs produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis and featured the hit single "Romantic" (which hit #1 on the Hot 100). Other singles from the album include "The Way I Feel About You," "Walkin' The Dog," and "Do Unto Me." White married Terry Lewis in 1992 and they have a daughter named Ashley Nicole. They have since divorced. Karyn has remarried.
Her next album was Make Him Do Right in 1994. She received moderate success with the single "Hungah". The album itself did not sell particularly well, but is critically acclaimed as the most soulful of the trio.
White left Warner Bros. Records in 1995 and dropped out of the music public eye for many years. She currently resides in Santa Barbara, California and will record her first album in well over 12 years. The album, Action Fighter is slated for release in the fourth quarter of 2006.
