Res
Shareese Renèe Ballard, better known as Res (pronounced reese,
IPA riːs) is a female
R&B singer from
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Her music is a mixture of
soul,
hip hop,
house and
rock. She released her debut album, How I Do, in
2001 featuring the first single "Golden Boys." In spite of the video's heavy rotation on
VH1, the song was not a hit on radio. Later the same year she released her second single "Ice King" featuring rapper
Nas, like "Golden Boys" the song did not appeal to a mainstream audience and a video was never released for the single. In
2002 she released her third (and first hit) single "They Say Vision," which hit number one on the
Billboard Dance chart and number 37 on the
Hot 100 Singles Sales chart. With the success of the single, the album entered the
Billboard 200 for the first time. A fourth single, "Sittin' Back," was also released. Res did a remake of a Jefferson Starship song titled "Miracles" for the movie
Maid in Manhattan (Starring
Jennifer Lopez). Shortly after, she also became a poster child for
Marc Ecko's "Ecko Red" clothing line and appeared in print advertising. After a near four years' hiatus she is currently touring supporting vocals with
Gnarls Barkley and is in the process of releasing her second album. She recently released a song on the
Akeelah and the Bee (starring
Keke Palmer,
Laurence Fishburne and
Angela Bassett) movie soundtrack called "To Empower."
