Keisha Renee is a contestant on The Voice Season 13 and a member of Team Blake. Her blind audition of the Don Gibson song "I Can't Stop Loving You" turned all four chairs.
She was instantly eliminated alongside Davon Fleming in the Top 8, after both contestants received the least amount of votes in that week.
Before The Voice[]
"Keisha was born in Los Angeles and grew up singing at church. Gospel music is definitely her foundation, but after high school she moved to Houston where she discovered country music. Though she fell in love with country, it took her a long time to pursue it because she was often told she would be better suited for pop or R&B. Keisha spent seven years working as a professional background singer, and for the last five years her boss has been Nicki Minaj. Touring with Nicki was absolutely amazing, but after having her daughter Amari two years ago, Keisha underwent a big lifestyle change. Throughout her life she has always struggled with her weight and during her pregnancy she weighed 356 pounds and was diagnosed with diabetes. It was a huge wake-up call for her and Keisha feels having her daughter helped save her life. She has since lost the weight and feels like now is the time to finally go after her true dream of becoming a country artist."
