STACY LATTISAW - a 12 year old teenager in the early '80s, had a string of Top 40 Billboard hits, with three songs -- "Let Me Be Your Angel," "Love on a Two Way Street," "Miracles" -- crossing over to the pop mainstream. Stacy Lattisaw recorded her first album for Cotillion Records at the age of 12 yrs in 1979, under the direction of producer Van McCoy. However it wasn't until she hooked up with Narada Michael Walden, a former drummer with the Mahavishnu Orchestra who was just beginning a career as a producer, that she became a star. Under Walden's direction, she had five hit albums between 1981 and 1986. She continued recording into the late '80s, signing to Motown in 1986, with continued success.

Stacy was born November 25 1966 in Washington, D.C. She is an American R&B and dance music singer and recorded her first album at the age of twelve, and has scored twenty two R&B & Pop chart hits.

Lattisaw's breakthrough album was "Let Me Be Your Angel", released in 1980. It featured the smash title hit and the dance-hit "Dynamite." This album was the first in a string to be produced by Narada Michael Walden for his Perfection Light Productions. Lattisaw and Walden grew together as artists - much of the latter's later success with others like Whitney Houston and Aretha Franklin, was patterned on the rich material that he and Lattisaw created during the early 1980s.

At only 13 years old she was opening for the Jacksons World Tour (featuring Michael Jackson).

In 1981 she released "With You" which contained "Love on a Two Way Street," a remake of the R&B classic. Lattisaw put her own distinctive stamp on the piece, and it has remained a staple of late-night, slow-jam radio programming in the two decades since its release. Lattisaw rapped for the first time on this album, and demonstrated an increasing vocal power.

Sneakin' Out was released in 1982. While retaining the R&B focus, Walden nudged towards pure pop music - incorporating more synthesized sound into the arrangements. The collection included the track, "Attack of the Name Game", which Mariah Carey later sampled for one of her own dance hits. Walden also included some ballads that Lattisaw was primarily known for, including "Don't Throw it all Away".

 Stacy Lattisaw moved to Motown for her 1986 hit "Take Me All The Way". The change in all aspects of her work was notable, and thus began the second phase of her career.

Stacy is best known for her two biggest Hot 100 songs: "Let Me Be Your Angel" (#21 in 1980) and "Love On A Two-Way Street" (#26 in 1981).

In 1980, she went to #1 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart with "Dynamite!" / "Jump To the Beat." Her other big dance chart hits include "Nail It To the Wall" (#2 in 1986) and "Jump Into My Life" (#3 in 1987).

- Stacy Lattisaw is working on an inspirational project. "I'm working on a gospel CD, finally," she says. "My priorities began to change, and then I met my husband. I took a long break and have been raising my kids, and that kept me really busy. I have a son and a daughter, and they’re 7 and 11 years old. But now, I'm about to start recording, and we're going to do the CD ourselves and put it out ourselves."

Lattisaw is married to music producer/songwriter Kevin Jackson, who penned the Tanya Blount hit 'Through the Rain,' and the two own a successful state-of-the-art recording studio called Night Flight in Fort Washington, Md. Ginuwine, Gladys Knight, Lil' Jon, Gerald Levert and gospel artist Deitrick Haddon are just a few of the artists who've recorded at Night Flight.
