PYNK BEARD is the brainchild of songwriter Sebastian Kole – a three-time Grammy winner, Emmy nominee, BMI and Spotify Secret Genius award winner. Raised a preacher’s son in Birmingham Alabama, who grew up directing the church choir while moonlighting in country bands, PYNK BEARD has returned to weaving Country Soul and Gospel influences with bold, anthemic choruses. His music transcends genres, blending emotionally charismatic lyrics with modern production to create a soundscape that’s both fun and heartfelt, and live performances that remain both rodeo or arena-worthy. With a singular aesthetic and a compelling stage presence, PYNK BEARD is redefining the boundaries between country and soul music.

Multi-platinum R&B icons Dru Hill are hitting the road as headliners of THE HISTORY OF R&B TOUR: Celebrating 30 Years of Dru Hill, an all-new live experience unlike anything fans have seen from the group before.

Starring SisQó, Jazz, Nokio, Scola, Smoke and Black, the show takes audiences on an unforgettable journey through the evolution of R&B — honoring the music that paved the way, shaped generations and inspired Dru Hill’s own legendary sound.

Grandmaster Flash, one of hip-hop’s most influential innovators and who turned the turntable into a musical instrument, just released his new memoir, Birth of a Culture, on September 22 through HarperCollins. 

Trey Songz is a multi-platinum R&B artist known for his smooth vocals and catalog of chart-topping hits. Since breaking through with his debut album I Gotta Make It, he has become one of contemporary R&B’s most recognizable voices, delivering fan favorites including “Say Aah,” “Bottoms Up,” “Can’t Help But Wait,” “Slow Motion,” and “Heart Attack.” With multiple GRAMMY nominations, Billboard chart success, and millions of records sold worldwide, Trey Songz continues to connect with audiences through a catalog spanning more than two decades.

Waka Flocka Flame has built a lasting legacy through iconic anthems and explosive live performances. His acclaimed debut album, Flockaveli, introduced fan favorites including “O Let’s Do It,” “Hard in da Paint,” and the Diamond-certified “No Hands,” establishing him as one of the most recognizable voices in hip-hop and trap music. From collaborations with Gucci Mane and Drake to appearances at major festivals such as Reading & Leeds and Summer Smash, Waka continues to bring high-energy performances and strong crowd engagement.

It didn’t take the rapper MIMS long to come up with the title for his debut album. Both of his parents died by the time he was 13, and it was his love for music that kept him focused on success and out of trouble. That’s why the Washington Heights, New York, rapper named his first album Music Is My Savior — a title that doubles as a clever nod to his last name, Mims.

That same cleverness carried into his smash single “This Is Why I’m Hot,” a skeletal, braggadocio club track that nods to New York, the Midwest, the South, and the hyphy movement all at once. Produced by The Blackout Movement and broken first by DJs, the song went on to sell over 5 million singles and earn an estimated $16 million. Part of its appeal, MIMS says, comes from his willingness to embrace rap outside of New York: “We have every right to be proud… but we do have to pay homage that some of these areas are making great music, like Chi-town, the Dirty South, the West Coast.”

He kept the momentum going with “Like This,” a dance-floor-ready follow-up built on heavy bass and a catchy, easy-to-recite chorus. MIMS got his start as a DJ at 13, following in his father’s footsteps, before his interests shifted to production and eventually MCing by the end of high school. Today, his buzz keeps growing — driven by the same hustle and positive outlook that carried him through the hardest parts of his story.
