Jared Crawford aka CHOCLATT, is a musician, producer, singer and song writer who began performing at the age of three. He first gained recognition as one of the original, World, Renowned Bucket Drummers, playing in the subways and sidewalks of New York City. It was then when Choclatt was brought to the attention of Savion Glover and as a result he choreographed all of the on-stage percussion and was featured in the Tony Award winning musical "BRING IN DA NOISE/BRING IN DA FUNK" Following the hot heals of NOISE/FUNK, Choclatt created and starred in the critically acclaimed musical KEEP BANGIN. It was during this period that his singing talents came to the fore front with many hailing him as the new school Al Green. Choclatt's unique vocal style blends elements of soul, R&B & Hip-Hop, with lyrics that are clearly heartfelt but always manage to keep it real.
