Renee Neufville

Beside Jean Morris, Renee Neufville was one-half of Zhané. The duo's sweet and easy grooves, released on the Motown label, were a significant ingredient of commercial R&B radio during the '90s; "Hey Mr. DJ," "Groove Thang," "Sending My Love," and "Request Line" were all Top Ten R&B hits. Upon Zhané's split, Neufville became a valued collaborator with the likes of Next, Will Downing, and Heather Headley all benefiting from her input. More prominently, she became a recording and touring member of Roy Hargrove's RH Factor project, as heard on the Verve releases Hard Groove (2003)...
