After working as a music industry executive for years, Jeff is going back to his roots with a new musical project due out early 2011. Double XXposure and Jeff Redd are hosting press days throughout December 2010 to relive what made, and continues to make, Jeff Redd such an incredible musical powerhouse!!While working at General Motors in Tarrytown, NY, Jeff Redd was discovered and signed by Andre Harrell, President of Uptown Records. Once signed, Jeff Redd received a cassette tape from a co-worker. The demo tape was recorded at a local shopping mall and it featured the voice of a young lady singing Anita Baker's "Angel." That young lady became the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul - Mary J. Blige.Following a discussion with Mr. Harrell, Jeff Redd signed Mary J. Blige to Uptown Records. She traveled with Jeff and performed as a background vocalist in order to learn the performance aspect of the business. In 1990, Uptown Records released Jeff Redd's debut album, "A Quiet Storm," which contained two top ten smash singles, "I Found Lovin'" and "Love High." Simultaneously, Jeff Redd was featured on the soundtrack for Strictly Business with the certified gold single, "You Called and Told Me," which after 18 years is still a top recurring single on WBLS and WRKS-FM in New York.
