Jazmine Sullivan- Fearless Who: Philadelphia soul singer Jazmine Sullivan, who at the age of 21 has already gained fans like Kanye West, duetted with Stevie Wonder and released her first album Fearless.
Sounds Like: Sullivan's voice recalls both Mary J. Blige and Lauryn Hill, and on the Missy Elliott-produced Fearless, Sullivan jumps from roots reggae on "Need U Bad" to the girl group sound of "One Night Stand" to the Winehouse-esque "Bust Your Windows," a song that made Kanye West proclaim on his blog "This is my favorite song right now!!!"

Vital Stats: Jazmine got her start in music at a young age. She was offered a gospel contract at 11, then by age 16 she was dueting with Stevie Wonder at his grandson's birthday party. Clive Davis has embraced her and offered her a contract in 2007 for J Records, the same label as Alicia Keys.
FYI: She co-wrote Christina Milian's hit "Say I" in 2006.
Why you need to buy her CD? Besides the multiple Grammy nominations and having her debut single top the charts for four weeks, the CD is extremely fearless like the title implies.
Key Tracks: Bust Your Window, After The Hurricane, In Love With Another Man, Lions, Tigers & Bears and Switch.
