Anita Prime

Anita Prime's star is on the rise and its rising fast. Her two New York promo tours really proved what the music scene is missing: a great vocalist who can really hit those high notes. In addition, she made her NY debut opening for The Real Housewives of NYC-LuAnn in front of a sold out crowd of 1,200. Think Whitney Houston, Think Deborah Cox, Think Anita Prime.
