KEVIN ROSS

Yoshi's Oakland

Music has always been a passion for Washington, D.C. native, Kevin Ross. He
attended a performing arts high school and went on to earn a degree from Berklee
College of Music. His career began as a songwriter, getting his first placement with
Jamie Foxx, which was followed by Ross writing and producing songs for such
artists as Johnny Gill, SWV, and Trey Songz.
In 2017 Kevin released his long-awaited debut full length album, The Awakening.
The album’s first single, “Long Song Away” peaked at #1 on Billboard&#x27;s Adult R&amp;B
Song chart and at Urban Contemporary Radio with the follow up single, “Don’t
Go”, cracking the Top 15. The chart-topping success of The Awakening led to Ross
receiving several award nominations: Best New Artist (Soul Train Awards),
Outstanding New Artist (NAACP Image Awards), and New R&amp;B Artist (iHeart Radio
Awards).
Ross continues to make a significant mark on the contemporary music scene as he
kicked off 2020 debuting at #3 on iTunes R&amp;B Albums chart with Audacity Vol 1.
“Thing Called Love,” the EP’s lead single, entered the Top 20 on Billboard’s Adult
R&amp;B Songs chart and was named the top song at Sirius XM’s Heart and Soul. The
success of Audacity led Ross to be named the R&amp;B Artist of the Year at the 2021 
Wammie Awards.
