Ms. Mello Brigante is a female hip hop artist & event promoter for Liquid entertainment, based in her hometown,Allentown, PA. She has been into music all her life and mostly has her family to blame . Her entire family is musically motivated, with her mom being a gospel singer from Georgia, and her dad being a hard core rhythm and blues man from Tennessee. Ms. Mello’s hip hop interest peaked when she first saw Queen Latifahs “U.N.I.T.Y” video and “Push It” by Salt N Pepa. Seeing these strong black women rapping and demanding attention, really sent her future goal of being in the entertainment industry into high gear.
Even before she started rapping, she had imagined herself being featured on one of her favorite joints from back in the day, always thinking she would be a producer not a rapper. But In 2004, she became a part of a group entitled “RollCall” ,after they heard her spit a freestyle at a party. Months later, they recorded their first album “From the Beginning til the End” at Audacity Studios in town. It was highly successful in the tri-state area and set each of the 5 members’ styles apart. Eventually the group ended up going separate ways but remained close, and six years later, three of the original members including Mello combined forces to create two mixtapes together, “Blood, Sweat, and Tears” and “Ghidorah”. They pressed it and distributed them throughout the Lehigh Valley for free.
As of now she is a solo artist looking to put out more mixtapes and eventually her debut album. The hard work that she has done for Liquid Ent. promotions and the music she has put out in her town has helped Ms. Mello stand out as one of the hardest working females in the A.B.E. and granted her many performances at numerous venues. Her goal is to follow in the footsteps of female mc’s who paved the way for so many others and were successful in changing the face of Hip Hop. With a unique flow and delivery on tracks, Ms. Mello Brigante is sure to set a trend among females in Hip Hop.
