From Burned CDs to Global Charts: Mandy’s Musical Evolution

Major Moves: Just Blaze, BTS & More

Mandy's talent soon landed her studio sessions with some of music’s biggest names. She worked with Just Blaze on a track for Eminem’s Recovery, lent background vocals to Kanye West, Rick Ross, and Charlie Wilson, and even featured on BTS Rap Monster’s “Fantastic” for the Fast & Furious franchise.

Through Warner Chappell and Atlantic Records, Mandy collaborated with top-tier writers like Julia Michaels and Delacey, adding more hits to her ever-growing portfolio.

A New Chapter: Nashville, TikTok Buzz & “Have You Cried”

Now based in Nashville, Mandy continues to write and produce, recently teaming up with rising country-pop act Pistol Pearl. Their songs “Boot Down” and “Knock ‘Em Dead” exploded on streaming platforms and TikTok—proof that Mandy’s pen game is sharper than ever.

After a 4-year solo hiatus, Mandy is back with “Have You Cried”, a hauntingly honest single produced alongside Bay Area producer Sawyr. Written and recorded in her home studio, the track reflects her personal growth and creative rebirth.

The New York Grind and Global Recognition

Mandy Ventrice isn’t just another name in pop—she’s a force, an innovator, and a resilient voice in the ever-evolving music landscape. Hailing from San Francisco’s Bay Area, Mandy found her escape and empowerment in music. From scribbling lyrics in class to self-producing CDs as a teen, her DIY roots laid the foundation for a fiercely independent career.

By thirteen, she had released her first EP, selling it through a self-run website long before streaming was a thing. Her hustle caught industry attention, leading her to an all-female pop group and collaborations with big names like Rich Cronin and Louis Bell.

Still Building, Still Rising

Mandy Ventrice’s story is one of hustle, reinvention, and fearless creativity. Whether it’s charting in Europe, voicing K-Pop anthems, or fueling campaigns against human trafficking, her work continues to resonate far and wide. With “Have You Cried,” Mandy is not just making a return—she’s reminding us why we listened in the first place.

At eighteen, Mandy took a bold step—she moved to New York, taught herself Pro Tools, and began producing her own vocals. She embraced different genres, from alt-rock to electronic, performing at legendary venues like CBGB’s and The Bitter End.

Her breakout came with dance/house hits like “Let Loose” and collabs with European acts such as The Michael Mind Project. She later featured on Alex Gaudino’s Doctor Love, alongside Kelly Rowland and Jay Sean, solidifying her place in the international pop/dance scene.
