Founded by Charles “Poogie” Bell — son of a musical legend and an artist in his own right — Sugatop carries the wisdom of generations.
“As the son of a musician and a drummer who has toured the world, I’ve seen both the beauty and the brutality of this industry. I started this label because I wanted something different — something fair, something real. I wanted to build a place where musicians aren’t products — they’re partners, said Poogie Bell. “We honor the roots of jazz, soul, and R&B while evolving the sound with today’s voices.”
The name pays homage to the Pittsburg, PA neighborhood “Sugar Top” and Harlem, NY’s “Sugar Hill” both known for its urban renewal and rich cultural and musical history.
