Michel’le’s debut album boasted a handful of singles including “Something In My Heart” that she wrote with producer Dr. Dre. The singer channeled her real feelings for the producer into the song and delivered a torchy ballad with a dramatic vocal climax. It was amazing to hear her minuscule speaking voice morph into a grown woman’s expression.  Her emotional delivery revealed a passionate love that she felt and was not being reciprocated. The sentiment was relatable to many and the video added to the authenticity of a perceived heartbreak because of her raw performance. Michel’le’s signature ballad took on more meaning after the public saw Surviving Compton: Dre, Suge & Michel’le, the Lifetime network movie about her allegedly abusive relationship with Dr. Dre. V Bozeman covered “Something In My Heart” in 2016. Meg Thee Stallion’s “Outside” from her 2020 Good News album has a sample of the song.  As of 2020, Michel’le still tours and performs.

[youtube id=”OpEVtOqvoss”] Michel’le’s Lifetime biopic Surviving Compton: Dre, Suge & Me will air in October. The first promotional clip shows Michel’le removing a Parental Advisory Sticker from her mouth but no actual scenes from the movie. The R&B singer has plenty to share to about her relationships with Dr. Dre and Suge Knight and her time as an artist with Eazy E’s Ruthless Records. Rhyon Nicole Brown from Lincoln Heights will play the role of Michel’le. The singer has already created interest in the biopic from the information she shared about her turbulent relationships with both men since she became a cast member of R&B Divas: Los Angeles.
