Chi è Bobby V
Originally known as Bobby Valentino, R&B singer Bobby V found success in the mid-2000s thanks to his radio-friendly singles and multiple collaborations with rappers.
• Born Bobby Marcel Wilson in Mississippi, the artist spent his formative years in Atlanta.
• In 1996, he joined the R&B quartet Mista. Their self-titled debut album, featuring the Top 20 R&B hit “Blackberry Molasses,” arrived that same year.
• The following year, Mista split due to management issues. Bobby later enrolled at Clark Atlanta University and graduated in 2003 with a degree in mass communication.
• In 2003, he became the first R&B artist signed to Disturbing tha Peace, the label run by rapper Ludacris.
• Bobby’s 2005 self-titled debut album features the hit single “Slow Down,” which topped the US R&B charts and became a Top 10 pop hit in the US and the UK. The album reached No. 1 on the R&B albums chart and No. 3 on the all-genre Billboard 200.
• His 2007 sophomore album, Special Occasion, also topped the US R&B albums chart and peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200.
• In 2008, he left Disturbing tha Peace and changed his name to Bobby V following a lawsuit from British performer Bobby Valentino. His next album, 2009’s The Rebirth, became his third straight No. 1 R&B album.
• Bobby V is known for his many rap collaborations, including Ludacris’ “Pimpin' All Over the World,” Lil Wayne’s “Mrs. Officer,” and Nicki Minaj’s “Sex in the Lounge.”

Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail.
I remember in 3rd grade I wanted to play drums, but my dad said no and bought me a trumpet. From that I learned how to read music and sing! Thanks dad!
