Tyra Bolling (born June 27, 1985), better known as Tyra B, is an American singer-songwriter. Bolling grew up singing with a local group by the name of Kraze' with her sister and now cousin-in-law when she was 14. While the other two singers went to college, Bolling decided to pursue a career as a singer.

Career

In 2005, her singles "Country Boy" and "Still in Love" became Top 40 hits on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip Hop chart without any support by major record companies. She worked with Chingy on the remix of "Country Boy", produced by PrettyBoy and Bradd Young. Her latest single, "Givin' Me a Rush", peaked at number two on BET's 106 & Park. "Givin' Me a Rush" was supposedly taken from her second studio album "Past Due". As of late 2010, Tyra's second album has not yet been released but new music is in the works, according to her self-made video blog which appears on her MySpace page. On April 26, 2013, the singer finally released new musical material, "The Morning After" mixtape on her official site.[1]
