Who did Andrea Martin write songs for?

Andrea Louise Martin is an American-Canadian actress, singer, and comedian, best known for her work in the television series SCTV and Great News.

Andrea Martin—the Grammy Award-winning songwriter behind hits like Toni Braxton’s “I Love Me Some Him,” SWV’s “You’re The One,” Monica’s “Before You Walk Out My Life,” Angie Stone’s “Wish I Didn’t Miss You,” and En Vogue’s “Don’t Let Go (Love)”—has died at the age of 49.

Martin also co-wrote several songs with a longtime writing partner, Ivan Matias, whom she met at Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts. In 1998, the Brooklyn native released her album, The Best Of Me. Her single, “Share The Love” peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard dance charts in 1999.

Earlier this month, fans discovered that Martin was the true voice behind Robin S.’s 1993 hit single, “Show Me, Love.” She sang on the demo and the producers of the song released her version instead of Robin’s. Martin spoke on that moment on an ASCAP panel and considered it a learning experience in her career.

During her songwriting career, Martin also wrote songs for Toni Braxton, Leona Lewis, Melanie Fiona, Sean Kingston, Fantasia Barrino, and Jennifer Hudson.
