Shalea Vintage [2021] - Lost Vinyl [Thebronxgirlwrites] (Full Album)

A debut album titled "Lost Vinyl" from Shalea Vintage (aka Shalea Ashley Hurd) from The Bronx, NYC, was released on 18 Nov 2021. She has already released two of the tracks as singles "Careful" (May) and "Love Me Figuratively" (Sep).

I can't find much info. on the artist but some digging on Discogs threw up that she co-wrote a song recorded by Full Force on their 2014 album "With Love From Our Friends" called "From These Lips To God's Ear" (included below) a gospel inspired song which features Regina Belle, Howard Hewett, Cheryl 'Pepsii' Riley  & The God Good Choir.

The album title seems to imply that perhaps these songs were written some time ago which may be seeing their first release?
