“Since they packed their U-Haul and moved to New York in 2004, this dynamic duo has seemingly taken the nation
by storm,” reads a 2007 issue of Curve Magazine. Of course, to get the full effect of this “storm” is to
watch Goddes and She, an openly lesbian rap artist and an intensely soul-stirring r&b singer respectively, ignite a crowd
with their infectious sound, powerful energy and undeniable chemistry. Since a young age, both artists have been actively
performing, sharing the stage with artists ranging from Slick Rick to Betty. Now, with the release of their newest album entitled
“Stand Up,” the duo is ready for the next step: To broaden their already large fan base and bring socially conscious,
inspiring and of course, catchy hip-hop/soul/rock music to the world. With their existing list of accolades and accomplishments,
this group is headed, as one of their song titles boasts, to the “top of the world.”
DEADLEE has garnered much press with his groundbreaking, genre-screwing approach, attracting cover stories in Gay City
News and Choice magazines and feature stories in the Long Beach Press Telegram, Las Vegas Review Journal, Las Vegas Citybeat,
Dallas Voice, Albuquerque Alibi, San Antonio Current, Frontiers, and DotNews Magazine. His involvement in the first ever regional
tour of GLBT hip hop artists sparked mentions in the press from the New York Daily News, Rolling Stone, Wired Magazine, XXL
Magazine, The Advocate, L.A. Weekly, Philadephia Gay News, Urb, Instinct, and Variety to name a few. He was interviewed not
once but twice by CNN, once for the Paula Zahn Now show on homophobia and hip hop and the second time for CNN Entertainment
for the launch of the HomoRevolution Tour 2007. He appeared with fellow LGBT hip hop artists Tori Fixx and Foxxjazell on the
Emmy-nominated Tyra Banks Show on April 13, 2007. DEADLEE launched his career earlier this millennium. Initially his style
was a blend of hip-hop and rap, with a thrash rock undercurrent, his lyrics tackled race, class, sex, and even police brutality.
DEADLEE earned a position as a key player in music's latest underground movement, gay rap/hip hop. He went on to play a variety
of music festivals including the Peace Out Festival (Homohop) in Oakland, Peace Out East in NYC, HomoAGoGo in Olympia, Washington,
Los Angeles Latin Gay Pride festival, Christopher Street West/Los Angeles Pride festival in West Hollywood, the San Francisco
GLBT Pride Main Stage two years in a row and Outfests..s FUSION Festival.
