Kristinia DeBarge is an American singer-songwriter. Born in Pasadena, California. She is the daughter of James DeBarge, the youngest member of the musical family DeBarge. She first appeared on national television in 2003 as a contestant on the American Idol spin-off, American Juniors. In 2009, DeBarge signed a contract with the Island Records department Sodapop, releasing her debut album Exposed in July of the same year. The album debuted at number twenty three on the Billboard 200.
The album spawned three different singles. The first of these singles, titled "Goodbye" has become DeBarge's biggest hit to date. The song reached the Top 20 in the Hot 100, Canada, as well as the Australian Hitseekers Chart. It also charted fairly well in countries such as Sweden.
The second single was "Sabotage", which was released on August 18, 2009. Originally, the song was to be released along with "Future Love", however, those plans were scrapped, and "Sabotage" became the stand-alone second single. Despite the success of her previous single, "Sabotage" failed to chart on any chart worldwide. The third single, "Future Love" (feat Pitbull), was released on November 10, 2009. The single became a moderate hit for DeBarge, when it debuted and peaked at number 100 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart in the US, which measures total radio plays.
In 2009, DeBarge confirmed that she is working on her second studio album, set for a release of Summer of 2011.
