The R&B/Soul Holiday ballad, "Christmas is Just Another Day", is written by Geneva Renée and produced by Dinky Bingham in memory of Geneva's best friend - her mother, Mildred White - who died as a result of complications from permanent kidney failure. Geneva endured the pain of missing her mother during the holiday seasons, but she refused to decorate her home for several years. "Nearly a decade later, I am finally in a place of peace," says Renée. "Now I can share my story through songwriting, which really helps with the healing process. I tried to keep the lyrics neutral to any loved one who isn't home for the holidays; so I hope 'Another Day' will help others as much as it has helped me with the loss of my parents." Still today, Geneva Renée can hear her mother's words. Spoken during a moment when the singer was at the crossroad of deciding whether to pursue her dreams or to stay home for her ailing, single mother, the “Go … go … go!” instilled courage and provided the direction and motivation Geneva Renée needed to heed the call of her heart … to sing. It was a winding path, however, that brought Geneva Renée to her current confidence and maturity as a singer. When her mom first put her in front of a Karaoke machine at age three, no one knew there was anything special about the voice of the enthusiastic toddler that always had a tune. By age nine, however, a church choir director began to see potential in Geneva Renée‟s voice and prepared a bluesy arrangement of “Jesus Loves Me” as her first solo. The church was mesmerized and touched by her clear and beautiful soprano, and suddenly, singing lead with the church choir became a norm, which led to requests for engagements throughout her hometown of Oxnard, CA. At the tender age of 12, Geneva Renée added jazz music to her repertoire, performing capable background and solo vocals with jazz vocalist Jeanne Tatum and saxophonist Del Franklin and Raw Silk (both local favorites in Ventura County) for the next six years. Performances throughout the region at events and clubs allowed Geneva Renée to develop a confident stage presence, and she landed in the Top Ten for Miss Teen California during high school. Inside, however, the young Geneva Renée was still “just a latch-key kid,” nervous and unsure. Her godmother told her she hadn‟t found her true “voice” yet because she hadn‟t experienced anything. Little did she know how much Geneva Renée would grow as both a singer and a woman in the coming years. Shortly before Geneva Renée was to leave for study at Howard University, her mother survived a hit-and-run car crash—suffering permanent damage to her kidneys. Not wanting her child to be burdened, however, Geneva Renée‟s mother pressed her to still move across the country to the District of Columbia. Hesitantly, she went, but unlike most students, her attention was divided between her studies and an ailing mother that was “pressing on” to see her graduate. Only three months after Geneva Renée's graduation, her mother died due to permanent kidney failure. The grateful singer, however, could still hear her mother saying, “Go … go … go!”
