About
DR Melo Bio:
Who:
After graduating high school, DR Melo immediately joined the US Army & served with the 173rd Airborne Brigade in 2003 in Kirkuk, Iraq. He chose to pass up on one of three Airborne jumps in war history. He wasn’t too enthused about jumping into war, so he handed over the once in a life time opportunity to one of his pals, because he felt as if he didn't deserve to take away such an occasion from someone that was waiting for something as important as this to help their military career. At times he comments in a joking manner, “I declined history, because I wanted to make my own, lol!”
While in Iraq, DR Melo met R&B singer, Bianco, from Houston, Texas and started working with him. Even with the wild predicaments that war brings, Bianco continued working on his music and DR Melo began learning from him. While using the time as productively under the direction of Bianco, DR Melo picked up tips on how to improve his live performance and vocals. He also picked up some knowledge to become better involved in the professional side of the music industry. After Iraq, DR Melo chauffeured for Bianco in Italy, and the entourage of Charrolastras.
After a short period attending performances with Bianco in Italy, DR Melo relocated to Colorado. While finishing his service with the National Guard, he met talented new artist Michelle Sanchez in 2004. Inspired by the young talent, he decided to continue singing because some had taken notice and mentioned he had a nice voice; thus creating A.D.A.P.T. (As Deep As Poetry Team).
In 2008 DR Melo met Joseph Jr from Young King Nation and was featured on many of Jr's authentic beats. YK Nation went on various tours, with Grammy Award winning Bone Thugs, Bizzy Bone, and opening acts for Baby Bash, MC Magic, and world renowned Lowrider Magazine Shows in various states. In 2015 DR Melo joined forces with Joseph Junior once more and continue to expand with the new #EARWAX brand; always willing to take on any new challenges that come.
Why:
For Love, Family, Music, Children, and a better world
DR Melo loves music because it has always been there for him through the hard, lonely, tough times. As a young child he wanted to sing, but because of his family circumstances it wasn’t affordable. He couldn’t attend competitions or even put time into singing. Family issues also affected his personal life and musical development, yet the desire to entertain, inspire, and help people still dwelled inside his heart.
As the issues grew, he was determined to change his life style, and moved away by joining the U.S Army. Learning new ideas, seeing new places, and meeting new people helped him grasp new ideals from a different perspective; thus acquiring courage, leadership skills, and respect for life.
These new conditions began to transform him into the man that he is; yet is constantly evolving into a new man daily. He is a very family oriented gentleman with old school morals, manners, business like demeanor; and at the appropriate times jester like. Like he always says; “Mom brainwashed me well, lol!”
Developing and inspiring people, is one of his passions in life. He is a loving, dedicated man waiting for the right women for him to settle down and raise a family with someday. For now, his full attention is completely set on his music, impacting people in a positive manner, and his career world wide.

When:
The idea had been rolling in DR Melo’s mind for a while in mid 2004, but it started emerging in late October when he met Producer Song writer Michelle Sanchez. As they discovered each other’s passion, and love for music they decided to unite and create music. Not officially in a group, because all collaborating artists worked with other artists; they decided to still continue this very family oriented business in the music industry under M.D. (Michelle & DR Melo)
DR Melo, the CEO of Deeper Than Poetry Entertainment, attributes the founding name to a conversation with Michelle Sanchez. On August 2014 Andy Herrera; DJ Kane's manager & President of URBANO LEGACY RECORDS, offered DR Melo the position of A&R Midwest Representative. In 2016 DR Melo joined Joseph Junior once more to push the new #EARWAX brand, and are continually producing new music
