Debbie Deb – Lookout Weekend (CD) (1997) (FLAC + 320 kbps)

Debbie was born in Brooklyn, New York, and raised in North Miami Beach, Florida. A music aficionado from a young age, she was “discovered” at the age of 16 by producer Pretty Tony at a Miami record store where she was working. The first song Debbie recorded was “When I Hear Music,” which she co-wrote with Pretty Tony. Released on the Jam Packed record label, the song has since become a staple in clubs and on radio station dance mix shows. Other hits followed, including “Lookout Weekend”, “I Wanna Work It Out”, “There’s A Party Going On”, “I Wanna Dance,” and a remake of Connie’s 1980s Latin freestyle classic “Funky Little Beat”.

However, Debbie was overweight and suffered from low self-esteem, and found her sudden fame difficult to cope with. She was crushed when her record company decided not to put her picture on the sleeves of her records and, in a Milli Vanilli-esque move, even hired an “impostor” to perform and pose as Debbie Deb. As a result, she made little, if any, money from her hit singles, and was so hurt by the experience that she stopped singing for years, relying on her work as a hairdresser to make ends meet.

Debbie finally resurfaced on the recording scene in 1995 with the album She’s Back. Now living near Philadelphia, she continues to work as a hair stylist and also keeps busy performing frequent concerts around the United States.
