Stephanie Ferretti (born February 14, 1986) is an American singer-songwriter, musician, producer, and businesswoman. Born in Puerto Rico and raised in New York, Stephanie first appeared on a Star Search talent show held by Fierce Music Label, and was signed by the major record label in 2007. Stephanie Fierce was given limited time to record her very rushed debut album "Stephanie Fierce: The Past, The Present and the Future Of Pop" which was released only in the US in 2008. The album did not reach commercial successful at first with the lack of promotion provided by the label. Fierce originally signed a two album/4 year contract with Fierce Music Label. However, the label went into legal issues that cut out all the contracts the label had with all artists. Ferretti then decided to go independent and record an EP self titled "Stephanie Fierce" which was later used as a demo for many record Labels.V-Records and Spice Records picked up the demo and thought Stephanie Fierce had raw talent and she went on to be signed by V-Records becoming the very first pop artist to do so. Within a month later Spice Records worked a deal with V-records to co-sign Stephanie Fierce. Stephanie Fierce managed to open for GirlSpice on their "One Last Goodbye Tour", already guaranteed interest by many. The success continued with the re-release of her debut album on September 1, 2009 with both labels backing the album. The album managed to sell over 3,200,000 becoming a huge success and one of the best selling debut albums of all time. The album spawned hit singles such as "Hot shot feat. The Rockers", "Where I Belong" and "Toy Soldier." With the album, Stephanie Fierce also managed to build a personality, style and music form know as being Fierce. After the album's success Stephanie Fierce embarked her very first headlining tour with "The Time Machine World Tour".

Stephanie Fierce's success only kept increasing with the release of her second studio album "Diary Of A Pop Sinner". With the recordings of "DOAPS" Steph took over as a solo writer and producer. The title "Pop Sinner" refers to the idea that Stephanie Fierce is not a princess as many refereed her to be and exposes a more darker tone Fierce didn't have with her first album. The album spawned many hit singles including worldwide hit "Love Feel Like Grenades feat. GirlSpice" and "Sweaty Nights". Sales for the album have reached over 15 Million worldwide becoming Stephanie's best selling album to date. Aside from getting positive reviews from top critics, The album managed to win Steph two awards at the IMA's/Birdies, one for Best Album and another for Best Solo Artist, the first pop album in history to make that achievement. The album is also considered to be one of the best and influential pop albums in history. The album made Rolling Stone's list of Best Pop Albums in the last decade at #1.

Stephanie Fierce kept progressing with self-titled third studio album "Stephanie Fierce" which sold an additional 4.5 million copies worldwide. However the album is considered "overshadowed" by the success of Diary of a Pop sinner. The album seeks a more rock oriented sound with mainstream appeal. Critics praised Stephanie Fierce's lyrics as well as her raw vocals. The album saw success with singles such as "The Bitch", "Destruction feat. The Nimrods" and Hunter (Bring on the Acid Rain). After the release of the third studio album, Fierce finished her contracts V-records & Spice Records, and decided to move on to bigger things, eventually becoming owner of new rising label "Hot Eye Records". Stephanie Fierce still however maintained a strong relationship with both labels. Stephanie Fierce was also involved on a side project with married husband Johnny Johnson known as Savior. The band did not seek mainstream success and albums are released independently. Only two albums feature vocals by Stephanie Fierce. The album was not heavily promoted as Fierce became busy in her personal life with Johnny, eventually leading on to her pregnancy.

Her fourth studio album "Newborn" was released February 14, 2011. The album showcases Stephanie Fierce's growth over the past years as both a producer and a songwriter. So far critics who've listen to the album, consider it Steph's most innovative album to date. With the perfect balance of pop and lyrical substance. Weeks after the album was announced, Steph took the opportunity to announce her pregnancy. "Crucifixion on an Innocent (Suffer)" reached #1 on the Top 20 Airplay Charts. Other single releases include "Heart & Salt", "Don't Drop The Soap" and "Immune feat. Jakey Comatose". The album showcased a departure to Fierce's more mainstream and pop oriented sound.

On May 28, 2011, Stephanie Fierce released information on her fifth studio album "Free"."Dying in the Airwaves", the album's lead single, went #1 on both the Digital Songs/Airplay Charts. Other singles release were "In Love Alone", "Electric Guitar Virgin", "Tequila Shower" and "Dear Producer, Stephanie Sampled a Tree". The album is the first album Stephanie Fierce wrote and produced solely and showed an evolution in Fierce's sound. The album is considered of Fierce's most underrated but most respected.

Fierce described the album as "psychological" in the form of a letter; claiming:

"In the whole creation process, I feel like a blind protagonist, who sort of develops a new sense, while strengthening the other ones as well. This is in no shape or form a pop album. This album is not something you can really get into, but more like really get out of. I say that with confidence. It’s not for the fact that I’m becoming anti-pop or that that I’m now trying to not have a commercial album. It’s simply just not a pop album. The idea at first was to create a dance album, but I scrapped it, simply because I changed my mind. I felt that this album is much more than some dance album. It goes way beyond that. I'm not indicating that it's still a dance album. You can dance to a beat, but you cannot dance to this. You have to sit down and think it through. The biggest challenge in this album was going inside my head, and portraying exactly what I was thinking. I think that’s the challenge that everyone experiences, period. But this piece of art is complex, because it’s not delusional and you quickly become disgusted by it. So basically my mind is placed under a microscope. My thoughts….. I don’t expect anyone to relate to it. It’s almost like a trip through yourself, through myself." - Stephanie Fiere

On August 2011, Stephanie Fierce began writing and recording her sixth and seventh studio albums. On October 19, 2011, the album's title; "Life's Good" was unveiled. The LP was released on January 29, 2012 with Liberation/Nomad Records.
