About Me

While being shaped by his former choir director at Beaulah Grove Baptist church in his hometown of Augusta GA, 'Mane began realizing that he loved to sing...and people loved to hear him. Placing first place in several local talent shows, radio call-in shows, and contests at local clubs, he developed a taste to be on top and was ready to fulfill his destiny, but others said he was not. He left Augusta to join the Air Force which landed him in the heart and soul of Hampton VA. He quickly drew a large following of fellow soldiers and airmen alike, and upon sharing with the general populous, he became yet again the hometown favorite. Whether he was singing his soul stirring rendition of the Maxwell hit "This Woman's Work" or selections of his own, he soon proved to be a worthy advisary with his local competition. Most of his inspiration came from a series of good relationships and bad breakups. So bad at times, that he lost his motivation to even continue as an artist. It was that small group of people around him, who is now known as "Da' Faculty Crew/238.Ent" and his manager (Darrell "DJ" Bryant of Majorhittaz ENT) as well as his all out love for music that would not let him fail himself or his fans. Upon returning back to Augusta from Iraq, he was met with adversity, lack of support, and several unfruitful friendships which ultimately transformed him into the relentless "Go-Getter" he is today.
