Bio

Ever since I was old enough to hold a microphone I have been a lead vocalist. Born in Baltimore, MD, my mother says I used to moan in the crib like Ray Charles. She made sure I was in church putting my talents to use and getting quality morals. My brother, cousin and I started singing in church as a group, then singing at family reunions and eventually forming our own band. We stepped up to variety shows, Battle of the Bands contests and just all out gigging. Everyone was older than I and their music tastes spanned the horizon. I grew up listening to the Hawkins Family, Stevie Wonder, Led Zepplin, Run DMC, Bon Jovi, Michael Jackson and my all time favorite, Prince.

After High School I went to Hampton University and even though music was a huge influence in my life I majored in Sociology. However, I spent so much time in the music and theater departments that people thought surely one of those had to be my major. Continuing my trend in college I performed with the jazz and gospel choir and of course became the lead vocalist for a campus band. I also found my way on stage as an actor, and in my senior year I did something no other non-theater major had ever done. I swept the Hampton University Theater Awards, winning Outstanding Actor, Outstanding Hampton Player and Most Versatile Performer. Upon graduation I knew I wanted more!

With God’s blessing I started my trek down the entertainment road. I became the lead vocalist of a band named Cover Page. We played all over the Washington DC/MD area and eventually released our own CD. However, my star needed bigger skies. Not only have I been writing, producing and singing music but also I have made a career for myself as an actor. I have performed in movies, television, and on Broadway. Thanks to acting I built a recording studio in my home, Black Scorpion Recording Studio, started a record label, Roe Records, formed a management co., Wuggafoot MNGT and now I have released my first solo album called Don’t Scream.

There is a lot of responsibility that comes with being a lead vocalist. I’ve done it all my life. So it only makes sense for me to turn it into a solo career. I like the comradery of a band but I love taking the bull by the horns.
