There is a curve called FAILURE, a loop called CONFUSION, speed bumps called FRIENDS, red lights called ENEMIES, caution lights called FAMILY. You will have flats called JOBS. But, if you have a spare called DETERMINATION, an engine called PERSEVERANCE, insurance called FAITH, a driver called JESUS, you will make it to a place called SUCCESS"
…YA BOI SONNY BLAQ….
Sonny Blaq Bio… R&B music is enjoying a soulful resurgence. Sonny Blaq wants to give the genre a substantial creative jolt. "I'm trying to evoke passion, emotion and vulnerability," the Kansas City-based singer says. "I'm putting soul,emotion and passion on records, where you can visualize everything that I say, you know music that has a story behind it.Sonny is also the voice behind 2Pacs hit "CHANGES" it was recorded while in chicago with friend and super producer R.KELLY. As Sonny works on this forthcoming debut album, he's teamed up with some of the industries heavy hitters. Adonis "AD" Shropshire and Brian Michael Cox who both have produced and written Grammy award winning number 1 songs for industry titans such as USHER, MARY J. BLIDGE and MARIAH. Sonny is destine for greatness with the team he and long time friend LIVIO "LIV" HARRIS has assembled. "Not to brag but it feels good when you can confidently say from management to attorneys to the creative side of writing and production it's truly a blessing, its like having KOBE BRYANT, ALLEN IVERSON, LaBRON JAMES and KEVIN GARNETT on the same team... you're bound for greatness." "When listening to my music and I talk about love or loving on somebody, that's exactly what I want you to do and more importantly its all about that feeling" Sonny says. "It's music where you can close your eyes and go somewhere when you hear it. At the same time, it's sexual and subliminal." All of Sonny's music is made for the stage...it's concert driven. The cinematic, piano and bass driven "Balcony" features a gripping storyline where Blaq plans to fulfill the fantasy of his lady but at the same time fulfill his fantasy to by making love on the balcony. The melodic "Standing Ovation" details the pride and emotions of a man who's just had his mind blown away by the skills of his woman. While the pleading "Messages" finds Sonny Blaq apologizing to his girl for his mistakes. He then regrets not paying enough attention to his lady on the rueful "Why O Why." On all of his songs, Sonny brings the listener into his world, one that is instantly relatable because Sonny presents himself as a well-rounded person, someone who loves but also knows and was taught how to appreciate a woman, "its nothing like making a woman smile and giving her what she wants when she wants it, its the best feeling in the world for me." His singing style evokes emotion and is very sensual. As you listen to Sonny, you get the swag and delivery of R. Kelly, but the sexiness of Marvin Gay and Maxwell… what a combination, ladies get ready. "I'm willing to be me," he reveals. A lot of dudes don't want to say they're vulnerable. That's not me. I'm human!" Like St. Louis rapper Nelly, Sonny is from the Show-Me-State. His hometown is Kansas City, Missouri. He came from a musical family, one that performed together in church. By singing in church, it didn't take long for Sonny to appreciate music. "It made me see how you can touch people," he recalls. "Even if you had a bad day, if you hear the right song, it would make everything fade away and clear out. That's what made me latch on to it and really want to do it. Its making people forget whatever they're going through…that's what I identify with!" Unfortunately, Sonny experienced problems in his family due to drugs and alcohol. "What kept me from losing my mind was music, church, and playing basketball…that occupied my time." So, get ready for Sonny Blaq -- "I'm doing music that is set to stand alone," Sonny says. "Ten years from now you'll be able to put on a Sonny Blaq record and still rock to it. I want to have that mark where I touch people mentally and emotionally. That's one of the great things about music. It's something that you can't touch, but you can really feel it. I want to have that effect." All it takes is one listen…
