Olivia Theresa Longott, born on February 15, 1981 is an American R&B singer. In 2000, she became the first artist signed to Clive Davis’ J Records. Her self-titled debut album, Olivia, was released in 2001 and featured the singles Bizounce, which made #15 on the charts, and Are U Capable. The album debuted at number fifty-five and was RIAA certified Gold on November 2002. At the time of the album’s certification, Olivia had already been released from J Records, signing to Interscope Records. In 2004, Olivia re-emerged as the first woman signed to G-Unit’s label, G-Unit Records. She contributed vocals to the trio’s debut album Beg for Mercy and to 50 Cent’s The Massacre, including the album’s number-one single Candy Shop. Her first solo single released via G-Unit Records was Twist It, featuring fellow G-Unit member Lloyd Banks, followed up by So Sexy in the summer of 2005.
