Why would I want to buy your stuff? "I'm bringing a unique realness, different experiences, different influences, a different sound and a positive feel to the table with my music." Born Nathanial Grant Jr. in Los Angeles, California, (the show biz capital of the world), Nate has a musical history well beyond his years. "I come from a family of great music appreciation. I was intrigued with entertainment at an early age. Growing up in a single-parent household I had all the time in the world to watch television. I was constantly exposed to every commercial, every theme song... you name it! When it was all said and done I was singing it or dancing to it." While growing up, Nate (Singer, Actor, Model) started honing in on what really peaked his interest. "I would say it began with my Mom who was always playing music in my early years. However, the biggest impact on me musically were friends of my mothers who sang in a trio. The first time I heard them sing I knew I had to be in a group." Singing and performing with countless groups for producers and A&R reps, and getting nowhere, Nate eventually left California and moved to Texas. Nate says he was stuck in group mode, and continued as usual by putting together another group for a record deal with a label out of Washington D.C. The deal fizzled and the group fell apart. Nate realized he could put in the same effort and energy that was being used for a group into himself. "Oh, going solo was a very hard move for me. Truthfully, I knew I could sing, but actually going solo was another story." Shortly after the break up of the last group, Nate was introduced to Chris and Peter Wiggins (the Wiggy Boyz) of Tri-1 Records (Recording Studio). These two exceptional producers from the Virgin Island's recognized the potential in Nate for something great. "That's when things started to happen." Nate commented on the influences reflected in his music by a wide range of artist from Gladys Knight, Phyllis Hyman, Luther Vandross, and Janet Jackson, to Whitney Houston, Maxwell, El Debarge and many more, Nate combines aspects of all his musical influences into a style all his own, which makes his sound uniquely distinctive. Mission Statement I want to be an impressive performer succeeding in everything I put my hand to accomplish. I want to use my God given gifts and talents including ambition, authoritative attitudes in leadership and intelligence, to encourage and promote the betterment of the people of the world, by setting a higher standard in Music. I want my music to be inclusive of various styles, genres, and cultures. I want to raise the musical bar, by setting a higher standard of how popular music is perceived, (the way it is viewed by society), heard, (by giving the people of the world a greater listening experience), and performed (with the highest pinnacle of excellence ever seen), in the music industry. I want the lyrics of my songs to be expressed with heartfelt emotion, and passion, and to be filled with meaning, reflecting the emotions shared by all humankind.
