DJ Diva Dee's Music Notes: The 1990's supergoup "Lucy Pearl" consisted of 3 very talented artists who were each a member of R&B and Hip Hop groups. Raphael Saadiq (former member of Tony! Tonie! Tone!) and D'Angelo created "Lucy Pearl". D'Angelo unfortunately was not able to move forward with the group however Dawn Robinson (fromer member of En Vogue) and Ali Shaheed Muhammad (former member of A Tribe Called Quest) together formed "Lucy Pearl". The group released their self-titled debut album "Lucy Pearl" in 2000. "Dance Tonight", a single from that album earned them a Grammy Award nomination for "best R&B Vovla Performance by a Duo or Group" and an American Music Awards nomination for Best R&B/Soul Single- Group, Band or Duo. Unfortunately this group disbanded sometime after 2002. * Don't Disturb This Groove   The System * Tasty Love   Freddie Jackson * Caravan Of Love   The Isley Brothers * Gotta Get you Home Tonight   Eugene Wilde * Dance Tonight   Lucy Pearl * II Hype   Entouch * She's Playing Hard To Get   Hi-Five * Who Do you Love   Bernard Wright * Games People Play   Sweet G

DJ Diva Dee's Music Notes: My fellow Howard Univeristy Alum- Eric Roberson (Erro) , A singer, songwriter from New Jersey won a scholarship to Howard University's and received his degree in Music Theater. Before Erro completed his studies he was signed to Warner Brothers and released his first single "The Moon". Sicne then Erro has released close to 10 albums, his latest "Mister Nice Guy" is currently available on his website at ericrobersonmusic.com . Erro is an amazing storyteller. He's also known to host unofficial "songwriting sessions" where he creates a song on the spot using matrial from the audiance. He's quick, funny and an amazing showman. During the sessions you are guided on the basic principles of writing on song from everyday life situations. Its a bit difficult to explain so you really should just checkout an Eric Roberson performance or roll by S.O.B.s' on Wednesday's when he's hosting SOL Village. -Music Love, DJ Diva Dee * Raindrops   Adriana Evans * Harlem's Nocturne   Alicia Keys * Mr. Radio   Chrisette Michele * Fall   Eric Roberson * Losing You   Heather Headley * Some Other Time   Jill Scott * Weekend Thang   Alfonzo Hunter * Sweet Misery   Amel Larrieux * What U Dyin' For   Angie Stone
