I did my first show around 2 years ago when with a group called "Lonely Boy Productions" Since then i havent done one but in 2012 i plan on gettin back on the stage anywhere that i can. I love performing when i did. Gave me a good feeling inside to perform for fans of mine.
For R&B i would have to say R. Kelly & Usher the most. I grew up listenting to them and havent stopped yet. They still my favorite no doubt
And on the Hip Hop side, i would have to go with Nelly, Drake, & Pimp C. Back then i used to dress like Nelly plus the man got hits after hits. Pimp C has always been my favorite. I dont have to explain that side. And drake, well, i have been told that some of my music sounds like his plus i can say nothing bad about that man flows.
I have an in-home studio but for me it has worked wonders!!
MXL V63M Condenser Studio Microphone & Behringer XENYX502 5-Channel Mixer
with Cool Edit Pro Program which i have been using since I started!!!! It may not seem like much, but it works alot.
