Music career
 | This section's tone or style may not reflect the encyclopedic tone used on Wikipedia. (May 2000) |
Paula DeAnda's major breakthrough came when she auditioned for Clive Davis and was signed to Arista Records on the spot. Her first single was the song "What Would It Take;" however, "Doing Too Much," featuring Baby Bash, was later chosen to be the lead single from her self-titled debut album. "Doing Too Much" was released in July 2006 in the United States, and grew in popularity as a result of massive radio airplay throughout the summer of 2006. Her eponymous debut album was released on August 29, 2006 and features guest appearances by Baby Bash, The DEY, Lil Wayne, V Nice, Ak'Sent, and P.B.
DeAnda worked on the album with several noted musicians including Natalie, Baby Bash, Sean Garrett, Ne-Yo, and producers Happy Perez, Mike Aguirre, and Stargate. DeAnda's second single was "Walk Away (Remember Me)" featuring The DEY, which was released in two versions - one that contains a rap verse, and another that features DeAnda's vocals exclusively. It was written by Ne-Yo, and Christina Milian, with Stargate in charge of production. DeAnda's self-titled debut album was released in Japan on October 25, 2006. The track listing included two new songs, "Alegria" and "Back Up Off Me."
On December 12, 2006, DeAnda released "Backstage With Paula Deanda" (on iTunes), and it includes four acoustic versions of songs from her original album. The featured songs include: "Doing Too Much," "Walk Away (Remember Me)," "When It Was Me," and "Good Girl." The album also includes a track of DeAnda having a conversation with Angel Garcia.
In early 2007, Arista released a third single entitled "When It Was Me," and as of July 2007, DeAnda's latest single, "Easy", is receiving more and more airplay and is becoming increasingly popular as radio stations are beginning to play it regularly. The song is currently trying to make XM Radio's 20 on 20 playlist.[1]
DeAnda's debut album was recently certified gold.[2]
