Growing up in New Orleans, Louisiana, DeLisa was introduced and exposed to the many different genres of music. With a hairbrush as a microphone, or anything that she could get her hands on, she would hum a melody to anyone who would listen. Her grandmother believed that she had something to give to the world and introduced her to the church choir at the early age of four. DeLisa was never shy and was always eager to sing at the drop of a hat. She would later begin to write songs about her everyday life.

At the age of 15, DeLisa began working with a local area producer and artist, Kevin McCoy and Carl Marshall, respectively. They would each help her hone and mold her talents. It was during this time that DeLisa met a local area rapper, Warren Maize, who gave her a chance to prove herself. He had already released a single "Get It Girl" and needed a female singer to sing a hook on a song "Telephone Love" that was to be released on his self debut album. That song was the beginning of her music career.

As an artist that has so much to give to the world, DeLisa has emerged from her cocoon and is ready to spread her wings and soar to new heights. So prepare yourself for a soulful journey from the heart and soul of this aspiring singer/songwriter – DeLisa.

"Lyrical content is what makes a song a song. It expresses your emotions, your past and present experiences, the challenges that you have gone through and have left behind, but most of all it explains who you really are and what you have learned. It can take you on a journey anywhere you want to go." - DeLisa
