Rome
Rome burst onto the scene with his self-titled debut album on RCA Records, which proved his skill as an R&B balladeer of great popularity and versatility. The album’s hit single, “I Belong To You”, rocketed up the R&B charts, and both the single and the album went platinum within a year, selling over 1,000,000 units. The effort won the Benton Harbor, Michigan, native several coveted awards, including “Best R&B Artist of 1997” from the City of Detroit, and “Outstanding R&B Artist” at the California Music Awards. But that was then and this is now. Rome has re-emerged with a tour-de-force collection of tracks -- many self-penned -- that reflect his maturity, mastery of multiple musical genres and a real knack for finding songs that work for his unmistakable voice. For “Do It”, Rome collaborated with several of today’s most sought-after producers, include Moe Styles, of Top Squad Music, James Macon of Unlimited wealth Entertainment, Victor Merrit and Gerald Baillergeua of Eight Street Productions, Dominique Wilson of Third Eye Entertainment, Mathew Kyle of Beware Productions, and Rick and Patrick Harris of RPD Music. The result is a musical compilation that strikes the right mood in the intimate glow of candlelight, the electric atmosphere of a Saturday night party, or even when daydreaming on a long drive home. Only one thing’s for certain. Rome is for Lovers.
