R&B singer Tatyana Ali began her performing career as a child actress co-starring on the hit sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Following the series' 1996 cancellation, she followed in the footsteps of co-star Will Smith and turned to music, debuting in 1998 with the smash summer single "Daydreamin'." Ali's debut album, Kiss the Sky, followed later that year. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
