about the artist

Bruce Black's Bio Category: Music On the 13th of August, Bruce Black was born on Long Island, New York. At the age of six, Black first took interest in music after listening to the radio, hearing the layers of vocals, and musical instruments blending together making a beautiful sound through a black box. After he moved to South Carolina, Black sought to expand his knowledge of music by joining the band in middle school. He became a part of Winds section, playing the clarinet and in high school, he became familiar with playing the drums, and later the piano. In his years at South Carolina State University, Bruce became a member of the marching band. As a well known Bongo Brother, their exclusive style won much favor among the people and various colleges across the states because of their exciting performances. By this time, Bruce knew he wanted to move people through music, watching the excitement and life it brought to the crowds, incorporating all he had attained, into producing skills. After college, Black returned to his home of New York where he would observe the blueprint of the music business, such as producing, vocal techniques, presentation, yet remaining true to his own ideas and style. A friend of Black's helped him obtain the right equipment, to pull all of the sounds, rhythms, and musical arrangements that came to him, playing over and over again in his mind. From his mind, into the recording system, Black did the research himself on how to properly use the equipment and produce his music, keeping a small library of resources along side the equipment. His fascination and hunger to produce would make Bruce a perfectionist when it came to producing tracks, lyrics, and flawless vocals, working days and nights without rest. His leadership, unique and fresh techniques would lead him to start his own record company called, Dark Corna Records. Some of his earlier work can be heard on Soundclick.com, where he reached the number one spot in the R&B charts and Acapella charts with "Thug Love" and his own "Acapella" respectively. His first compilation album from Dark Corna Records, started a buzz among the young audience back in South Carolina, showcasing his flavor of R&B, Hip-Hop, and pure vocals. However, Bruce wanted to focus on the completion his own album, which lead him back to New York, connecting with a few old friends that would help produce a few songs for the album, already entitled, "The Black Book". Completion of the album is expected to be near the middle of March of 2007. Already, tracks such as, "Forever" and "Turn Around" co-produced by Al West, are receiving much approval and praise from thousands of people across the globe. Black is already making his mark via web radio, which gives the underground artist a greater audience to appeal to than just a local station. At Enterprise103, his track "Forever" took the number 2 spot on the Top 15 Chart, just after two months. At QSJ Radio, he was appointed Artist of the Month, a position completely in the hands of listeners all over the world. His harmony and vocal arrangements places him in that exclusive category of an artist like no other. This year, Bruce Black Music will expose a new level of music as Black brings soul back to R&B and Hip-Hop.
