Cheryl The Pearl - Rhythm Change
- Published in New Music Reviews
We would like to introduce you to the legendary artist, Cheryl The Pearl's new release, "Rhythm Change" on Black Bottom Entertainment.
Formerly of “The Sequence” and currently CEO of and Head A&R for Black Bottom Records Entertainment Company. For as long as she can remember, Cheryl has had a love for music. Cheryl grew up watching her grandmother, the late Mamie Cook sing in the church choir and began to develop a listening ear. As she got older, she began watching singers like Diana Ross and the Supremes on the Ed Sullivan Show. At that time, she knew that she wanted to be a performer. Cheryl began entering talent shows in school and found out that she had a special talent for performing. As she became a young adult, her interest in music grew. In high school, Cheryl joined forces with 2 of her best friends; Gwendolyn Chisolm and Angie Brown. They decided to put a group together and later became “The Sequence”. On their journey to becoming the best female rap group of that era, they met Sylvia Robinson at the Township Auditorium in 1979.The girl group was asked to sing at one of the Sugar Hill Gang’s shows, where they performed an original piece written by Cheryl Cook called “Funk You Up”.
Immediately Mrs. Robinson took them under her wings and said, “One day, they would be stars”! Not long after that, she made good on her promise and The Sequence became the first female rappers to sale over 500,000 units of a 12’ inch single in the history of Hip Hop. Cheryl also wrote for the Sugar Hill Gang, such songs as: 8th Wonder, Apache, & In the Fast Lane. For the West Street Mob, she wrote, Let’s Dance & Break Dance. Her writing abilities didn’t stop there because she wrote a lot of the songs for The Sequence, such as: Funk you up, Tear the Roof Off, and Monster Jam. A lot of music icons that Cheryl respects have sampled her work and she is very grateful for it. Such artist as: Envogue, Dr. Dre’, Buster Rhymes, Master P. Eddie Murphy in the movie Doctor Dolittle, Ice Cube in the movie Friday, Missy Elliot, Trina, De La Soul, Jennifer Lopez, Bruno Mars and many more. It is always a humbling feeling when great artist sample your work.
Between 2014 and 2017 Cheryl has since released 4 singles entitled "Rhythm Change", "Got Love", "I Don't Feel Like Talkin", and "On Our Way To The Movies" and planning to release a full album under her own Record Label Black Bottom Entertainment, LLC. Her entertainment company and label embodies not only her skills and talents as an artist, performer, singer, writer and rapper but also provides the artists within the network with all the resources and business information needed to sustain a career in the music and entertainment industry.
