Trisha Covington

Trisha Covington (born in Cleveland, Ohio) is an American R&B singer who scored a top 30 US R&B hit, with her debut 1994 single entitled "Why You Wanna Play Me Out?".

Her follow-up single, "Slow Down," produced by Marc Nelson and Kyle West, reached number 79 on the US R&B chart.

However, she was dropped from the label before releasing any more material, in part due to the minimal success of her debut effort.

She was also known in the entertainment industry for singing background for other artists, including Will Smith, Beyoncé and Toni Braxton.

In 2011, she was reportedly working on a new album, releasing several recently recorded songs online via social media.
