JOSH BLACK

"My music brings back the way it used to be...but with new flava" Josh explains. Josh, just 21 years old was born and raised in Yonkers, New York, home of r&b/hip hop diva Mary J. Blige and other notable r&b and hip hop artists. As a child growing up, Josh heard a lot of music and was influenced by the likes of stevie, Marvin, Donnie, Otis. At home his father listened to rock&roll, jazz and r&b and his mother listened to Roberta Flack, Patti Labell, Anita Baker. But' I didn't know i could 'really sing' and until I joined my church choir and i sang my first solo " Keep Your Eyes On The Sparrow". The crowd reaction was tremendous !! Josh has been singing ever since and honing his talent performing in some of New York's talent hot spots like the Village Underground, Cafe Wha and Soul Cafe.

Now josh is putting together the finishing touches on his debut CD working with the production team of Chris Absalom, Richard Smith and Cassandra Lucas, producers /songwriters for artists: Donell Jones, Kenny Lattimore, Shante Moore, Missy Elliot, Divine, Olivia (Cassandra Lucas former member of the multi-platinum selling R&B duo "Changing Faces.)
