Che'Nelle - KK Born Artist To The Limelight Of the World


Born in a quaint and little known town of Kota Kinabalu, Sabah state of Malaysia.

At the age of ten, Che'Nelle and her parents moved to the relatively vibrant city of Perth, Western Australia.
It was nothing like she was used to, especially since it was faster, and most of the people did not look like her.

At 14 she joined a Top 40 cover band and did it for 5 years. Going to college to learn how to produce—with Logic Pro and Pro Tools—was Che’Nelle’s next big step toward stardom. Che'nelle studied music at the West Australian Academy of Performing Arts.

While still working on her self-produced demo in her excruciatingly modest bedroom studio, Che'Nelle uploaded her recordings on to her now renowned myspace page.
Amidst the countless hits of her page, her now manager - radio veteran and club DJ of 17 years - Sir Charles Dixon, stumbled on what was too good to be true.

Dixon took her material to Virgin Records and flew Che'nelle to Los Angeles at the end of 2005 to meet with the label. The chairman of the label and longtime music business baron, Jason Flom, refrained from much a rhetoric dance and committed to signing her immediately. Within two days, she had signed the deal and was marketed as a world artist.
