About Me:

Yunek came from a Christian home and accepted Christ at an early age. As a child Yunek was heavily involved in church which is where she discovered her vocal talent at the age of five. However, it was not until her last year in college at Prairie View A&M University in Texas that she had a personal and spiritual revelation about God’s purpose for her life.

In preparation for God’s work, Yunek studied Audio Engineering at Media Tech Institutes in Houston, Texas. “There I learned how to create music beyond it being an idea in my head. I am able to get my thoughts out on paper, through the microphone, and onto a CD!” she exclaims. In fact, Yunek was recognized by the Houston Chronicle as one of the most talented female audio engineers in the music business.

Yunek is a self-contained, multitalented artist with a high energy stage performance. Through her writing, singing, and producing, Yunek’s songs embody a refreshing blend of reality and inspiration that is sure to reach all generations. “I do not have to fit in a box. I am able to be uniquely old school, jazz, neo soul, and hip-hop! That’s me”, says Yunek.

Yunek names India Arie, Tye Tribbet, Tweet, Marvin Sapp, Brandy, Beyonce, and Lauryn Hill as her major artistic influences. Yunek’s songs embody a unique blend of passion and inspiration through her writing, singing, and producing all of which she exhibits on her CD. To date, Yunek has an impressive catalog of over 50 songs

Some of Yunek’s proudest accomplishments include placement as a semi-finalist for her style, creativity, and lyrics at The Gospel Dream Showcase, which was judged by industry greats such as Kelly Price and Max Siegal. Yunek has had the pleasure of singing with Dietrick and Damitta Haddon, and shared the stage with artists such as Ziel, Dewayne Woods, 21:03, James Fortune & FIYA, Tre' 9, BB Jay, Shei Atkins, J Xavier, Urban D, Special Ed, S.O.M., Joanne Rosario, Tarsha Hamilton, Trinity 5:7 and more.

Her highly anticipated album release is next on her increasing list of accomplishments. One must only listen to her debut album, Exodus Three:Seventeen, to know that her music is education for the soul. “I touch on the good and the bad, just like the Bible”, she describes. From her upbeat hits such as ‘Lean on Christ’ and ‘On fire’ to the more socially conscious melodies found in ‘Real Love’ and ‘Straddle the Fence’, Yunek never strays from the most important message - Salvation. She states, “Salvation is the key to real joy, it’s the only way to find and keep purpose in your life.”

“I am destined to do this”, Yunek affirms.. “This is a gift God has given me and it is my purpose to build this ministry to what God wants it to be.” Yunek has answered the call, returned to her path, and refuses to look back.
