Early life and personal life
Foster grew up with a family of singers and musicians, her father was in a fairly well known '80s funk band who often rehearsed at home, she regularly fell asleep to the sound of live trumpets and saxophones practising away in the very next room, that is when she decided to focus on her own music career.
She is good friends with fellow Roll Deep featuring artist, Jodie Connor, who gained Roll Deep their first number 1 single.
She studied at the BRIT School.
2009–present: Shining Star and breakthrough
Tania Foster started her big time career after featuring on Roll Deep's fourth single, "Green Light", which entered the UK singles charts at number 1, becoming Foster's first number 1 single and first ever single to chart. It also became Roll Deep's second number one single. The track debuted at number 18 on the Irish top 50 singles chart. The single was released 15 August 2010, battling Flo Rida and David Guetta's "Club Can't Handle Me" and Eminem and Rihanna's "Love the Way You Lie". "Green Light" got mainly good reception after Digital Spy said the song had a definition of a guilty pleasure, and later giving the song three out of five stars.
