Kansas City native Kendall Shiree has been singing for as long as she can remember. At just 3 years old, she found her voice, but it was September 2023 when she officially began her professional music career. Now based in Las Vegas, she draws on a lifetime of experiences — from competitive sports to deep personal growth — to fuel her artistry.
Her childhood was steeped in music. “In our house, music wasn’t optional,” she laughs. From family barbecues to weekend cleaning, there was always something playing, often introduced by her grandparents, both lifelong singers. It was in these moments that her passion for performance took root.
Kendall’s influences span generations: Whitney Houston, Beyoncé, Luther Vandross, Ariana Grande, Raye, and Jhené Aiko. Her goal is to give fans the same rush she feels hearing a great song for the first time. Her upcoming single BACK 4 YOU (dropping August 8, 2025) is her boldest yet — a sultry anthem about freedom, healing, and self-assurance.
One of her proudest achievements so far is establishing ChickenWrap Entertainment and All You Can Eat Publishing, companies dedicated to empowering artists. With her trusted production team — Keith “KEIKEI” James, Nadia Simone, and K!RYN815 — she’s building music and business from the ground up.
Kendall balances her work with intentional rest, believing that joy fuels creativity. She’s also passionate about mindset, encouraging others to see abundance and possibility in their lives: “Your perception shapes your reality. Choose peace. Choose yourself.”
With her powerful voice, entrepreneurial spirit, and message of self-belief, Kendall Shiree is more than an artist — she’s a movement.
