About Me


PLEASE VISIT REIN AT: http://www.showcaseyourmusic.com/reinofficial
YOUR VISITS HELP HER GET NOTICED!
Welcome to the myspace page of DEA Management. DEA Management was created as a result of a powerful vision given by God. Donna Allen, PhD has always had a love for music and deep roots in the ministry. A powerful and highly sought after Preacher, Professor, Theologian, and Activist-- she never expected God's plan to include artist management.
It began at a small cafe table in Piedmont (outside of Oakland) CA, where Dr. Allen and the artist Rein began divinely inspired conversation about radically inclusive ministry even through music, and how difficult it is as a woman and black woman to live in to God's divine plan for her life--in addition to previous perils of less than appropriate management and usery.
It was during those emotionally charged and sincerity filled moments that DEA Management was founded on the principles of integrity, anointing, divinely inspired lyricism, and freedom of expression. It is believed that artists can be used in many ways to express real life issues and ministry through music. It is believed that the character of the ministry and integrity of the ministry and artist should be maintained and guarded at all times. It is founded on the belief that we are ALL one in Christ and can be used by God in unique ways. Having no previous experience in the industry, DEA Management was founded as part of a faith walk 6 years ago.
Since that time, the artist "REIN" has performed in reknown venues and shared the stage with the likes of Dorinda Clark Cole (of the infamous Clark Sisters), Byron Cage, Helen Baylor, Afeni Shakur (Tupac's mom), Walter & Edwin Hawkins, and has been highly sought after by many conferences including the General Conference of the AME Church, and other women's conferences etc. She was a semi-finalist in the Gospel FOCUS competition (hosted by PAJAM & Lexi via the Word Network) and recently placed third in Mary Mary hosted "Got Talent" search where she received high acclaim from Warryn Campbell and Erik Dawkins. Rein has also been a background singer for Kim Burrell, Peabo Bryson, Michael McDonald, and Oleta Adams (via Colors of Christmas and other local events)
Rein's album, "Conversation Piece," is due out at the end of 2008. It is a blend of soul, rock, neo-soul, and Inspiration sure to make you think, as well as move your feet.
