NEW YORK, NEW YORK May 8, 2012— BOBBY BROWN is without question, one of R&B/Pop Music’s most adored vocalist and controversial celebrity for well over a decade. Bobby began branding his recognizable sound (“Girlfriend”, “Don’t Be Cruel”, “My Prerogative”, “Every Little Step”) within the subgenre of the American Pop Music culture known as R&B music. As one of the founding members and signature voices of the world renown Pop/R&B vocal group, NEW EDITION, Bobby Brown has successfully delivered a hit debut solo album, KING OF STAGE, followed by DON’T’ BE CRUEL, that sold over 7 million copies and had 5 top ten hits as well as garnered him a Grammy Award for Best Rhythm and Blues Vocal Performance, Male in 1989.
Now this great talent has chosen his most personal songs yet for his highly anticipated new solo CD, THE MASTERPIECE (Bobby Brown Productions-Bronx Bridge Entertainment, Inc. – Fontana), his first solo album in 14 years! The famed Boston-born vocal impresario is lending his own voice to an eclectic blend of smooth, soulful, ground-breaking lyrical & instrumental production from a roster of carefully selected producers and songwriters. The debut single, “Don’t let Me Die” ironically is a song that was written years before the recent death of his ex-wife, Music Superstar, Whitney Houston. Other new songs from the upcoming album, “Damaged” and “Get Out The Way” will serve only to remind fans how much they have missed the musical BOBBY BROWN.
The BRONX BRIDGE ENTERTAINMENT INC. staff is gearing up to launch, market and promote BOBBY BROWN and THE MASTERPIECE album to a new generation of music listeners, as well as his core audience who purchased the singer’s NEW EDITION music to all of his previous solo projects as part of their all-time favorite classic music collection. The Executive Staff at Bronxbridge is confident that BOBBY BROWN’S musical style will appeal to a digital/mobile consumer, as well as traditional retail outlets around the world. The company has a strong global distributorship throughout South America, Europe, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and the UK. . European retailers are creating a “buzz” via emails and telephone calls by inquiring when Brown’s product will be made available to their outlets and services. BROWN is currently on a NEW EDITION WORLD TOUR (see itinerary below) and will conduct radio/newspaper/magazine interviews in support of THE MASTERPIECE. The versatile performer recently did his first interview with the TODAY SHOW’S Matt Lauer this month, since the tragic death of his ex-wife, Whitney Houston. He has been booked for a series of upcoming TV interviews and performances for the month of May. They include: an interview on THE ELLEN DEGENERES SHOW, May 15th where he will premiere his music video and new single, “Don’ Let Me Die”; On May 16th, Bobby will perform on The Jay Leno Show as well as a special musical performance on NBC’s TODAY SHOW’s upcoming Summer Concert Series on Monday, May 28th. The Grammy Winner will also appear on THE WENDY WILLIAMS SHOW, Tuesday, May 29th.
Bobby Brown is a modern testament to timeless quality.
When asked about his upcoming solo project, Brown explained, “I simply wanted to create a body of work that will take listeners on a musical journey; the style of music that will allow people to get in touch with their highs and lows and their joys and pain of living through song. At the same time, I am hoping to bridge the gap between good old R&B and R&B of today.”
