RANDOM: TOP 5 KC MOMENTS OF 2011



As 2011 draws to a close, 2012 only mere hours a way, I found it important that this year, I recap some of the best moments in regards to Keshia Chante so far this year. You may or may not agree, or you may find these top 5 moments similar to your own. That being said, here we go!


5. Keshia's 2011 Juno Award Nominations
This in itself came as an utter surprise and shock to Keshia herself who at the 2011 Juno Awards had only expected to merely attend and present awards at the nomination ceremony. Ultimately she clenched two nominations with NO ALBUM on shelves yet. Even though she was bested for Best R&B Recording of the Year 'Test Drive' & Best Dance Recording of The Year 'Table Dancer', the fact that she was nominated was surprising.

4. Keshia takes a trip with CANFAR to Kenya
As I always say, Keshia is no stranger to doing good and back in May of this year Keshia took a trip with CANFAR (Canadian Foundation for AIDS Research) to visit children in Kenya, Africa. She helped build and orphanage and got down in the trenches interacting with them and learning their stories. She said that the trip itself was forever life changing and judging by the impact it not only had on others who accompanied her, I'm inclined to agree.

3. Keshia gets verified on Twitter: @KeshiaChante
Now, this probably might sound silly or even seem pointless to most, but the fact that for the last year or so (2010 up to a few months ago) we as #KCRyders had been fighting and tweeting for KC to get that verification check... The moment that was finally verified in my eyes was actually a liberating experience, mostly because she deserved it and secondly because believe it or not there are fakes of her residing on twitter. (See fake: @MsKeishaChante).

2. Keshia's 3rd Album is finally released
Most people would say this deserves to be the #1 top 5 KC moment of 2011, but I'll tell you why for me it ranks in at #2. While I'm glad I got new music from Keshia, as would any #KCRyder be... The above is actually more important because it opens more doors. It's a solid album, however you can read my full thoughts and the thoughts of LKC team members and fans when our mass Night & Day album review post comes on Sunday!

1. Keshia hits I-Tunes... WORLDWIDE
This right HERE though... Trumps everything except KC's trip to Kenya. Awards or no awards, Twitter verification or no twitter verification... Album or no album. This right HERE is called expert marketing, it's called reaching the masses on a larger scale and I-Tunes finally stepping their cookies up and returning the legal papers and whatnot. So now you know! Keshia Chante is availble everywhere on I-Tunes, from China, to Iceland, and England and Central America, and everywhere in between! BUT! Lets not forget the good ol' US of A. #2012Takeover anyone?
