I had the chance to kick it with Drea Love next week and it was truly an amazing time.
Taking a moment away from the studio, Drea Love introduced a select few to her new music. A project so new it has yet to be named, Drea Love showed us what her next chapter is all about.
Drea set the tone with her celebrity invites, live performances, swag, gift bags, and most of all, her fashion slay! Babeeeeeeeeee! When I tell you sis was DRESSED. She was DRESSED in the Name.

And, for our music lovers, here’s a sample of the upcoming project. You know we had to take care of you.
Atlanta’s newest Pop/R&B artist, Drea Love began with a gospel background as a young child in McComb, MS. Growing up she knew that her love for music would become a career goal. Motivated to become self-sufficient in the music industry, she has gone from enjoying singing as a hobby to becoming a professional artist in 2012. Drea Love has a voice that appeals to the young crowd that enjoys feel-good music that makes you dance and music to cater to the heart. Working hard to set herself apart from the rest of the R&B artist in Atlanta, she incorporates a pop style as well as Reggae which is accompanied by hard-hitting lyrics and various features. In 2011, Came to Party debuted on iTunes; which has recognition in the Southeast and Eastern part of the United States.
