Hi! I'm a Singer Song writer, Rapper, Actor and Top Graphic Designer/ Senior Promoter for Collage Inc.
Looking for management/ Investor's and trying to take my leap into the music world again. All together I've been singing for like 11 years, but professionally I've only had a 2 year streak. It may have been a short one but it has been great after graduating from the high school of Creative & Performing Arts - Cincinnati Ohio. I took my musical chances on the World Wide Web starting with no other then
www.youtube.com. In 2006 I created a YouTube account and uploaded my 1st video Mar 15, 2007 covered Ne-Yo's so sick getting me 161,561 views and 1,447 comments's catching the attention of some small and big record company's. Image wise some people thought me being a healthy big guy would be a problem and I thought so to and took a long break from music and making video's to try and get my battle with weight loss together, I learned that if I don't love myself no one else will. I am still a big guy but now I'm comfortable with my self and just trying to eat right. Since then I have been fighting and proving to some that it takes more then a toned body, skinny waist and pretty face to be a great singer.
I started writing and producing music for myself and others, joining online contest, became a temporary promoter for a hot music website the lunched in 2008 getting over 1,000,000 members/musicians to join. In the same year I joined 4 different Gospel/ R&B/ Alternative and Rap groups. Gospel group's: Beyond, P. Ann Everson-Price & the Cincinnati Super Choir, RaMeco Lattimore & Worship. R&B/Alternative group: Dream Phaze. Rap group: Drama Tize Music (D.T.M). And in 2010 I joined a Old school cover/ R&B/ Alternative & Jazz band called Muzik Therapy, We entered and won Cincinnati's Next Big Band 2010! I have tried out each genre and now know that my genre is Hip-Hop, Rap, R&B, Alternative, Pop-Rock.
From the ending of 2010 and the start of 2011 I and a close friend ( The C.E.O. of the business Ms. D'Anna Kennedy )started a Business called Collage Inc. Collage Inc. is an Organization specializing in building community growth, business and fine arts. Our objective is to: Define and refine the individual talents of our community and students by providing a broad range of major programs offered by a distinguished faculty, and to prepare them for careers in music/business that reflect the diversity of expression and opportunities that define the music industry today. Are goal is to rais money for are non- profit (i.Y) inspired Youth.
