Since her debut album in 1996 entitled A Life Poured Out, Negleatha "drj" Johnson has remained true to her "calling" to compose and sing music that heals, restores and ushers in waves of hope. Hers is the music that inspires whether it's nestled in energizing Latin rhythms, contemporary chords, or a genre yet to be defined. As you listen, you can't help but be taken in by her calming vocal musings as she unwraps songs exposing a type of personal transparency that could only come from one who has found peace in her faith, purpose and unique music style. Her thought provoking music puts the listener safely on a journey towards wholeness as she reveals much of her own life story in song - a story that began in a small town in North Carolina where Negleatha played the piano for her church and high school choirs.
