Lee Carr - "Breathe"

Posted by Trompie

"You're the reason that I breathe / I want you to know that / If you were to leave then I couldn't go back / My life would be incomplete without you here."

The Song:

Prepared to take the R&B world on one dreamy love song at a time, Lee Carr, the latest singer-songwriter-producer wunderkind from the Jive/Zomba camp is set to exhale his latest single, "Breathe." On this track Lee shows off his romantic stylings by cooing starry-eyed lyrics like "You're the reason that I breathe / I want you to know that / If you were to leave then I couldn't go back / My life would be incomplete without you here." Set over a smooth R&B backdrop, "Breathe" is the perfect backdrop for a sexy slow dance with a lover.

The Background:

Born and raised in New York, 22-year-old Lee Carr is ready to make his mark on the R&B scene. After several years of growing as an artist and perfecting his writing and producing skills, he believes that 2008 will be his breakthrough year. Currently, his first single "Stilettos" is bubbling on the Billboard charts and his second single "Breath" is also attracting attention. Produced by Los and written by Lee, "Stilettos" is a sassy track that is sure to become a soundtrack for every girl who loves rocking heels and every guy that likes to see a girl in those heels. "Like a supermodel on a runway scene," he croons over the electro sonic backdrop; as addictive as it is soulful, "Stilettos" is bound to become a ladies anthem. Lee Carr plans to release his full length self-titled album in spring of 2009 on Third Lane/Jive/Zomba.
