 en black people agree that this white chick can sing. The tenth one is
  tone deaf. Thatâ€™s how itâ€™s always been for Boston soul chick Lisa
  Bello, who rocked the Apollo cold at thirteen years old and smashed t
 hrough the public school talent show circuit before her sweet sixteent
 h. Every artist gets labeled, and Lisaâ€™s never minded being the tatt
 ooed Italian broad with Maryâ€™s pipes and Whitneyâ€™s gusto. Lisa had
  to shine. Her brother Louie Bello casts a thick shadow as Bostonâ€™s 
 premier r&b star and songwriter. In order for Lisa to get recognized, 
 sheâ€™s had to deliver live sets that rewired the way people think abo
 ut Caucasian pop singers. Her formula: freak a couple covers and flash
  some skills, and then move in with original material. Though sheâ€™s 
 been performing live since middle school and been selected twice to pe
 rform on JAMâ€™N 94.5â€™s annual Summer Stage, Lisa only recently hit 
 the lab hard. In the past six months sheâ€™s written her yet-to-be tit
 led debut album and recorded with established Boston beat teams includ
 ing Mass Appeal, Surefire and John Johnson productions. The resulting 
 sound is big enough to move dance floors but minimal enough to let Lis
 a bust loose. On the lyric front, letâ€™s just say that homegirl has e
 qual parts intellect and attitude. Since she started dropping singles 
 on line in late 2007, Lisaâ€™s been one of Beantownâ€™s most requested
  collaborators. Working with artists including Jake the Snake, Omega R
 ed, Dre Robinson, D-Quest, DJ On&On, JayCeeOh, and Makio from MTVâ€™s 
 Making the Band, sheâ€™s quickly established herself as the r&b voice 
 to be reckoned with around New England. But Boston is already getting 
 small. Clubs like Felt, Mantra, Revolution Rock Bar and The Middle Eas
 t have taught her well, but Lisaâ€™s game is too unique and marketable
  for her to stay trapped beneath glass ceilings. Hipsters dig her danc
 e floor-friendly backdrops, soul cats flock to see her front an eight-
 piece band, and hip-hop crowds havenâ€™t heard rhythm packaged this ti
 ghtly since Jodeci dominated airwaves. Donâ€™t front â€“ you know sheâ
 €™s got you open too.\nOfficial Site: Http://www.myspace.com/alchemist
