Musically she has been playing piano and had vocal training since she was a child. She has been playing classical music on the Piano since she was five years old. She has played various musical pieces, Mozart, Czerny, some ballads as well as some R& B. She was also trained in dance at an early age starting at the Eileen Kaufman Ballet School. She has been trained in Afro-Caribbean, Ballet and Contemporary. The first group she ever listened to were the Spice Girls.

COVER MODEL GABRIELLE
Gabrielle says, “The future is untold, but I hope it turns out for the best. I plan to tackle all areas of the music business”. She feels the current status of the music and modeling industries are very commercialized with an edgy persona. Gabrielle listens to an array of artists including Nicki Minaj, La Roux, Beyoncé, Imperial Teen, Drake, and others. She is a very diverse individual. She could also listen to anything such as with the Opera she enjoys The Phantom of the Opera or MoonLight Sonata and Dipset. Her style is glamorous and edgy with a little punk rock undertone. You will never catch Gabrielle in sweatpants because first impressions are everything. The one thing she must have in her purse is her journal. The most adventurous thing she has ever done is going to another borough of the city without her mother knowing when she was younger. Her favorite Designers are Dolce & Gabbana. Her first passion was music and then modeling. Her first Mentor was Mr. Paul MacIntosh. He helped and is still helping her with everything she does in life. Gabrielle’s last words are, “I plan to shoot for more than stars and reach past the moon. I plan to be successful with all aspects of life and still remain humble”.

comes to us from Virginia. She started with music at age 11. She would write songs because she wanted to sing. Her sister convinced her to rap instead because she was great with writing poetry. She began modeling locally at malls and restaurants for fun. She has been composing with instruments since 2006. The first groups she heard were from her mom playing the songs of Anita Baker, Luther Vandross, Mary J. Blige, and Michael and Janet Jackson to name a few. Her music is good quality and easy on the ears. She brings that lyrical quality the game is missing. As a model she brings dedication, cooperation and superb talent. She defines success as “Being able to accomplish a task or goal whether hard or easy; also acknowledging and showing gratitude to those who helped along the way”. For the future she believes as long as she stays focused and determined to reach her goals then she will be successful. She feels the current status of music fluctuates. She would love to see and hear more talented and lyrical individuals in the game. She views models in the industry are ok. She also wishes the shorter models would be considered for gigs such as more runway modeling. She listens to Rappers such as T.I., Lil’ Wayne, Drake, Gucci Mane and R&B artists like Alicia Keys, Monica, Trey Songs and Chris Brown. She also has to show love to those Artists who rep VA. Her style is one of a kind and unusually fly. You will never catch her with people who love drama or those who don’t have business about themselves. The one thing she must have in her purse is her license. The most adventurous thing she has ever done is pursuing her dreams. Her favorite Designers are Ed Hardy, RocaWear, BabyPhat or anything cute! Her first Love is her daughter, Lyric. Her first Passion is Music. Her first Big Purchase was her Car. Her first Mentor in Life is her Mother. Musically if she had to name a mentor it would be her cousin, Sy Midas, he taught her how to make beats with Fruity Loops 5. In Modeling she does not have a mentor. Her last words are “Up and Coming Artist/Model on the Rise. Look Out for J-Sparkz...Stay Tuned”!
