Stewart attended Brit School for Performing Arts & Technology, where Ambrosius studied business and finance. She also majored in Performing Arts, Media and Art. Stewart also attended Middlesex University in London, but later transferred to North London University. Stewart was a founding member of the performance poetry group 3 Plus 1, which was rising to critical acclaim throughout London, Birmingham, and Manchester.
After inviting Ambrosius (her colleague) to join her on stage to perform at a spoken word night, where they debuted a piece that they had written together called «Fantasize», combining spoken word and singing, Floetry was born.
In 2000, the duo travelled to the United States to perform on the poetry circuit. After frequenting spoken word/poetry spots in Atlanta, such as Yin Yang Poets’ Cafe, they moved on to Philadelphia. There they met Darren ‘Limitless’ Henson and Keith ‘Keshon’ Pelzer of DJ Jazzy Jeff’s Touch Of Jazz studio and began recording.
In 2002, they signed with DreamWorks Records and released their debut album Floetic, which featured the singles «Floetic», «Say Yes», and «Getting Late». The album was also released in the UK with additional tracks, one of which featured the British singer-songwriter and record producer, Sebastian Rogers.
In 2005, Floetry released Flo’Ology, their second studio album. It debuted at number seven on the US Billboard 200, and included the single «SupaStar» featuring rapper Common.
In 2006, Stewart parted ways with Floetry. Since her departure from the duo, Stewart began her own production company called Free Sum Music.[1] In 2008, she appeared the movie «Reasonable Excuse» as «Laila».[2]
