Just a few years ago, at the adventurous age of 18, Natasha decided to risk advancing her career by moving from her small Texas hometown to the East Coast. New York, NY “The Big City of Dreams”, certainly the first choice of hers was influenced by mainstream artists such as Mary J. Blige, Lauryn Hill, Nas, The Notorious BIG and Jay-Z. Natasha settled in East Orange, New Jersey, where she got a taste of inner-city street life. Moving to the East Coast was a huge culture shock and transition for her, but she quickly adjusted. Seizing the chance of a big break, she auditioned for Diddy’s Making The Band 3 and was selected to compete in the finale. Although she was not part of the band, Natasha was able to network to sign with prominent independent label She Records.

But it wasn’t until Natasha recorded a freestyle rap that they found out about this La Femme NIKITA alter ego. After successfully recording several songs in the studio, both She Records and Natasha decided to call her alter ego La Femme NIKITA to release a Hip Hop/Rap album, with Natasha Walton following close behind with an R&B release. .
