About Zelma Davis
Zelma Davis (born 1970, Liberia) is a Liberian-born singer best known for being one of the main vocalists from the grammy-nominated group [[artist:C + C Music Factory]].
In 1990, [[artist:C + C Music Factory]] released the single "[m=78062]" with Zelma Davis starred on the music video as the singer. However, this originated a huge controversy because it turned out that Zelma wasn't actually singing the track but miming to it. The real singer was [[artist:Martha Wash]], who successfully sued the group for using the vocals that she had previously recorded as a demo without giving her any credits and without her consent.
Davis later contributed lead vocals to several tracks on the group’s debut album [m=78051], including “[m=78071] (Let’s Rock & Roll)”, “[m=78136]” and “[m=78098]”.
She also participated in [[artist:C+C Music Factory]]'s second album, "[m=78025]", along with many other singers, including [[artist:Martha Wash]] (this time being properly credited for her vocal contributions), [[artist:Deborah Cooper]] and the group [[artist:Trilogy]]. Davis shared lead vocals with [[artist:Martha Wash]] on the lead single “Do You Wanna Get Funky”, which reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Dance chart. She additionally provided lead vocals on the singles "[r=2160118]" and backing vocals on “[r=4651524]”.
Nowadays Zelma lives a quiet life, although she has released some material as a solo artist after leaving C + C Music Factory, including the song "[m=535725]" which was included on the soundtrack for the documentary film "When We Were Kings" in 1997. Her last public appearence was in 2017 in the TV series "Dr. Ken".
