"In this…"bizness", one needs to know how to promote their career and more importantly their image. It is mandatory for artists to grasp their own reigns via credible public relations architects who will construct a positive picture thereby becoming responsible for their own destiny and legacy. This is truly important". -Eugenia Wright, Publicity Architect.

EUGENIA WRIGHT, former television/film and theatre actress naturally progressed into the public relations field during the late eighties. She recognized early on that public relations was an essential tool to promote one's career while working as a teen actress guest-starring on such television shows as The Love Boat, Chips, Magnum PI, Quincy, White Shadow, Hill Street Blues, Blue Thunder and many others. Her proficiency with the English language and capable writing skills set her apart from her fellow actors and soon they too were asking her to represent them.

By the early nineties, Eugenia realized that public relations was equally as important as acting and was hired by one of the most prestigious public relations houses in the world Rogers & Cowan. Working directly under the guidance of co-founder legendary publicist Warren Cowan and public relations expert Alan Nierob, responsible for the careers of Jennifer Lopez, Denzel Washington, Oscar De La Hoya and Mel Gibson, to name a few.

While at Rogers & Cowan, Eugenia was directly responsible for assisting in the image development of such stars as Robin Givens, Joan Collins, Diahann Carroll, Richard Lawson, Ali McGraw, Heather Locklear, Victoria Principal and many more. Eugenia was finally in her realm. However, the film industry continued to beckon and she returned to film and starred in "Perfume" "The Further Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" and a comedy entitled "Off Sides" with Tony Randall and Patrick Swayze. She also starred in many Shakespearean pieces for KCET including MacBeth and Othello. On stage she assayed such roles as Juliet in an interracial version of Romeo & Juliet and received an LA Drama Critics Circle Nomination, Drama Logue Awards and great citywide recognition.

Other lead roles that are memorable include Cleopatra in Caesar & Cleopatra, Cleopatra in Anthony Cleopatra at the Globe Playhouse and she was awarded an NAACP nomination and garnered rave reviews from LA's toughest critics. Famed artist Avery Clayton known for his beautiful black and white renderings was inspired to sketch Eugenia as Cleopatra set to a backdrop of the Sphinx which hung in LA's Black History Museum and is now part of his treasured art portfolio. Henceforth, Eugenia Wright has and is referred to by many as "Kleopatra Girl."

Five years ago, after rearing her one and only child Isa into his teens, Eugenia reflected on which career would she continue to pursue, acting or public relations? Her love for image building (PR) outweighed her love for acting. She devoted herself to promoting the careers of many industry stars including her husband, veteran of stage and screen and highly sought after voice over talent J.D. Hall. She has promoted and marketed his image to a veneer finish which has lead him to become a highly acclaimed narrator of such blockbuster productions as "The Scorpion King," "Under Cover Brother," "The E! True Hollywood Story of Richard Pryor," "The E! True Story of Good Times" and most recently "Their Eyes Were Watching God" by Zora Neale Hurston, starring Halle Berry.

Hall boasts hundreds of other credits including radio and television commercials, too numerous to mention thanks to Eugenia's PR skills. Accounts that have increased notoriety, exposure and/or sales directly from Eugenia's PR efforts include: The Isuzu Long Beach Marathon, Revivogen, a hair loss topical growth formula, Comedian Celia Fox who is currently producer for Wasabi Tuna and developing a new film starring Anna Nicole, The Art of Exotic Dance which became the most popular strip tease aerobics workout in the nation due to Eugenia's efforts, Robert Kennedy, Publisher of MuscleMag, American Curves, American Health & Fitness and Oxygen magazines, Built to Survive (manual for AIDS victims), Gold's Gym, The Body Spa @ Gold's Gym Downtown. Under ISA PR banner: Dancer/Choreographer Barry YoungBlood, Joey Dowdy, original choreographer for the Back Street Boys (prior to Fatima Robinson), Bianca's Botanicals, a cosmetic company specializing in all natural hair and body products, The Athletic Garage, owned and operated by Hip Hop Diva Madonna Grimes, Music Mogul Chris Stokes and his film "You Got Served" No. 1 Block Buster Film in 2004, Hip Hop and R&B Artist, Marques Houston, Fashion Photographer and Image Maker to The Stars Tim Alexander, Comedienne Irene "Mama" Stokes, B2K, Celebrity Photographer Vinni Ratcliff, Barker's Beauty Kathleen Bradley, Ron Shipp LAPD officer in the OJ Simpson trial, Make-up Artist Danyelle Amber-Davis (Orpah's Fantasy Wedding Makeup Artist), R&B Singer Maiya Sykes, Pop Rock Singer Douglas Wood and others including a high profile attorney handling a sensitive front page news court case.

All accounts handled by Eugenia are based on her passion for the subject matter. It is easy to generate interest from the media when "the source" is 100% convinced that what they are promoting is genuine. Her efforts for these accounts are outstanding and she takes on the challenges in reaching their targeted media markets with zeal, whether it is mainstream or ethnic media.

Recently Eugenia faced the cameras once again. She will be featured in the docu-film "The Penitentiary Trilogy" directed by Jamaa Fanaka, featuring Smokey Robinson, Leon Isaac Kennedy and Chris Stokes; and "American The Beautiful" a film directed by Darryl Rob about America's obsession with beauty. In the latter, Eugenia will share the screen with Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson and child model Gerren Taylor. She was also recently appointed West Coast Contributor to CRUNK Magazine.

Eugenia Wright is a native of Guatemala. She has one child, Isa Hall. Her company bears his name.

TiiDA has been on tour for the last year performing in venues throughout Europe from Italy to London, while also building a fan base in the United States with performances in Las Vegas, New York, and Los Angeles. All the while completing production on tracks in N.Y. and C.A.

Grant and Booker hooked up while in London. Unknowing of the struggle they would have as a black and white black music duo that wasn't already manufactured by a label. The eminent love of hip hop soul music and burning desire to make strong black music tracks kept them together hustling tracks on the street. Doing there own street promotions and showcasing at local talent contests.

"The music industry didn't think that listeners would believe a white boy from Europe could sing soulful black music. So we did our own street promotions from 10 at night until 6 in the morning and we rocked hip hop showcases in the hood where we where sometimes the only black music act. Let alone with a white boy. The cats that were out there performing didn't have any reason to clap, get out of their seats to shake your hand and congratulate you if they didn't like what you where doing. I knew that if the street would give us love we would get love across the board," says Booker.

Booker has hard soulful vocals which give the raw uncut lyrics a unique life of their own. This is then in turn given a smooth soothing overlay by Grant drawing the listener into the songs to be blown away. This unconventional style has set the world to become wide eyed in expectation over what's next to come from the duo. If "New Booty Thang" is any idea of the caliber of music to be self written and sang by TiiDA then we will continually be longing for more.

When watching TiiDA performing or in the studio you might find yourself feeling as if your caught between a relationship with yourself and every partner you may have had, wanted, and never wanted. With twisted takes on life's relationships TiiDA opens up to the listener showing real pain, happiness and humor that has not been touched upon. There is so much feeling passion, honesty and fun resonating through their vocals. When they smile, you think they're smiling at you when they sing, you think they're singing to you and with those banging hooks you cant help but hope that when the chorus sings "She found love, love, love inside of me" they're singing to you.

When will this determined duo be released to the mass public?
When will Europe get to see its first male black music singer break into the United States from the United States? When will black music males put us back on the dance floor where we want to be? Well the answer to the last question depends on the answer to the first. Which we all hope will be soon. Prepare for something a little bit harder a little bit stronger a little bit TiiDA.
