His album Just In The Moment, released in 2023, reached the Top 20, and debuted on Apple Jazz at #1. He is currently working on an R&B and pop-influenced record slated to be released later this year. Surrounded by his musical mentors on and off the stage, with professional and personal friendships with Stevie Wonder, T-Pain, H.E.R. and Jojo to name just a few, at such a young age, he is already taking the world by storm.
