With a songwriting and production career that was continuing to flourish, Shamora decided to embark on another journey.

An independent venture that landed her performances across the United States, and received unprecedented press reviews proving that there is truly nothing she can not do. The album which spawned the underground ladies heartbreak anthem “Betcha” and triumphant broken relationship ode, “Cry No More”, sparked a new passion in this seasoned talent’s career.

Soul Veteran Angie Stone’s new release, The Art of Love and War, contains three Shamora co-written songs. “These Are The Reasons”, the only song on the record not co-written by Ms. Stone, and the standouts “Take Everything In” and “Sometimes”, with the latter reaching number 7 on Billboard’s Urban AC charts, highlighting yet another reign of accomplishments for this unrivaled talent.
