SUMMARY:Lisa Bello  Hot-Hot-Hot 10:30pm FREE
DESCRIPTION:Nine out of ten black people agree that this white chick c
 an sing. The tenth one is tone deaf. That’s how it’s always been f
 or Boston soul chick Lisa Bello, who rocked the Apollo cold at thirtee
 n years old and smashed through the public school talent show circuit 
 before her sweet sixteenth. Every artist gets labeled, and Lisa’s ne
 ver minded being the tattooed Italian broad with Mary’s pipes and Wh
 itney’s gusto. Lisa had to shine. Her brother Louie Bello casts a th
 ick shadow as Boston’s premier r&b star and songwriter. In order for
  Lisa to get recognized, she’s had to deliver live sets that rewired
  the way people think about Caucasian pop singers. Her formula: freak 
 a couple covers and flash some skills, and then move in with original 
 material. Though she’s been performing live since middle school and 
 been selected twice to perform on JAM’N 94.5’s annual Summer Stage
 , Lisa only recently hit the lab hard. In the past six months she’s 
 written her yet-to-be titled debut album and recorded with established
  Boston beat teams including Mass Appeal, Surefire and John Johnson pr
 oductions. The resulting sound is big enough to move dance floors but 
 minimal enough to let Lisa bust loose. On the lyric front, let’s jus
 t say that homegirl has equal parts intellect and attitude. Since she 
 started dropping singles on line in late 2007, Lisa’s been one of Be
 antown’s most requested collaborators. Working with artists includin
 g Jake the Snake, Omega Red, Dre Robinson, D-Quest, DJ On&On, JayCeeOh
 , and Makio from MTV’s Making the Band, she’s quickly established 
 herself as the r&b voice to be reckoned with around New England. But B
 oston is already getting small. Clubs like Felt, Mantra, Revolution Ro
 ck Bar and The Middle East have taught her well, but Lisa’s game is 
 too unique and marketable for her to stay trapped beneath glass ceilin
 gs. Hipsters dig her dance floor-friendly backdrops, soul cats flock t
 o see her front an eight-piece band, and hip-hop crowds haven’t hear
 d rhythm packaged this tightly since Jodeci dominated airwaves. Don’
 t front – you know she’s got you open too.\nOfficial Site: http://
