Aneel Robinson is the man behind the “411” DVD. As a performing artist on tour, other musicians asked how he succeeded in the music industry himself. Aneel did originally encounter obstacles getting his own career up and running, producing CDs and organizing national tours. His experiences, good and bad, led him to produce the DVD series over the past 2 years. You may know him as Music 4 Da Soul Records or from the Gavin Charts and winning the ‘Best R&B Album’ at the 'Northwest Music Awards'. He has also produced 3 other CDs, with sales over 50,000, under the same label. You can also find Aneel on UK Solar Radio, where he hosts “The Juice”, featuring only independent artists.
