DON’T SLEEP: Cohen “The Cleanup Pt. 3” [BEAT TAPE]

DON’T SLEEP: Dutch ReBelle “Married To The Music” [NEW PROJECT]
I’m a tough critic (or so I’m told) so I don’t really co-sign too many cats. To me it’s simple, if you have it, you have it. You need to have more than just drive, hustle and determination nowadays. Some cats have mastered how to network, build a buzz and a following but simply don’t have the talent or the stage shows to match their business acumen. Dutch ReBelle has all of these things plus the intangibles necessary for success in this ugly game. Here’s her new project “Married To The Music”. Folks always ask me about what artists in the Boston area I’m checking for and her name is always mentioned. See why. Don’t sleep…
