## Resource

Shanice joins Shawn Stockman to tell the real story behind her global hit “I Love Your Smile,” what it was like singing background vocals with Michael Jackson, and the difficult moment when she lost her record deal while five months pregnant—an honest look at how the music industry treated women at the time. She also shares incredible behind-the-scenes moments from her career, including appearing in a commercial with Ella Fitzgerald at nine years old, winning Star Search, and navigating major industry decisions that shaped her catalog. The conversation expands into stories involving Justin Timberlake, Babyface, and Barbra Streisand, along with reflections on the golden era of ’90s R&B and the unpredictable journey of building a lasting career in music.
