Becoming a superstar in the entertainment industry and performing on national and international platforms is many people’s dream. It is the only satisfaction every aspiring musical artist yearns for. However, it is not easy to break through and dine with the big names. Many talents go unnoticed, and only the brave find fame. But one musician who beat the odds is none other than the new R&B prince, Austin Rogers.

Austin Rogers has a remarkable journey to fame worth sharing. He is based in Atlanta, Georgia, and studied to become an entertainment attorney at Howard University in Washington, DC. However, he decided to switch his career path and tap into the music industry. His aim was to become a global figure and one of the household names nationwide.

The journey to becoming a superstar was a challenging one. That is why Austin considers it one of his main achievements to partner with big names such as Missy Misdemeanor Elliot. In case you did not know, Elliot is the reason behind the success of artists such as Jay-Z, Janet Jackson, Mary J. Blige, and Timberland. Austin released a music video single, “Zodiac,” which was directed by Elliot. Austin is here to stay, thanks to the traction the music gained among R&B lovers and having Eliot as a director. In fact, some people already refer to him as the newly-crowned prince of R&B. He may be the beginning of a new era in music!

Everything seems to be going according to Austin’s plan. His recent performance at the City Winery during the filming of Atlanta Housewives was a clear indication of a brighter future ahead. According to him, Austin aims to perform on national and international platforms and become a household name in five years. He is already on the right path toward achieving his goal. And as determined as he is, it may take him even less time to get there. The new R&B prince has much to offer on the way, including a new single, “In My Head,” scheduled for release in October 2022.

Austin has also diversified his career. Not only has he modeled, but he has become a social influencer with a profound interest in the fashion industry. He showcases his best talent working with formal, semi-formal, and other fashionable menswear.

Austin is a focused and passionate artist who gives everything to his music. He spends his time on personal development and pays little attention to what his critics say. Austin is so confident that he wants them to be mad at his current achievements in the music industry and the new things he has on the way for his fans. He promises to drop new hits that will see him rise to stardom.

Though it is just the beginning, Austin already has a lot to be admired by followers and aspiring musicians worldwide. His energy, determination, and skills are an inspiration to everyone.

Former Miss Tennessee USA and Rising R&B Artist Tucker Nichol Explores the Stigma Around Mental Health with Standout Track “Nah”

Music Observer Staff on November 9, 2022

Apart from serving as background noise to people’s most mundane moments and a companion to their most memorable ones, music has long acted as a medium of communication and a tool for self-expression. Artists of the past and present have harnessed the power of music not only to relay stories but also to start conversations about important topics and raise awareness on different causes. Former Miss Tennessee USA Tucker Nichol is one such musician who has banked on her platform to talk about what matters. The voice behind the standout single “Nah,” the rising R&B singer is currently countering the stigma surrounding mental health.

After dominating the beauty pageant scene when she bagged the coveted Miss Tennessee USA 2010 crown, Tucker Nichol is now proving to be a force in another sector through the release of “Nah,” an upbeat and danceable track that belies a poignant reminder to close the door on toxic relationships. The track is an organic continuation of “Over the Edge,” “Not My Business,” and “Too Close To Home” and solidifies an already impressive discography that speaks of her potential as a promising singer-songwriter.

Her first three singles, which were part of the debut album Too Close To Home, have already garnered over 900,000 streams and secured placements on VEVO’s DSCVR R&B playlist, MTV Live, MTV Spankin’ New, and BET Soul. Written alongside Mary Weitz, Adam Korbesmeyer, and Jerry Lang II, the project was a perfect introduction to Tucker Nichol’s artistry and her distinctive approach to writing through a trauma-informed lens.

“Nah” is no less impressive than her previous releases and is argued to be even more stellar for its honest take on unhealthy relationships. Composed with the hopes of inspiring others to leave relationships where boundaries are crossed and trampled upon, it comes hand in hand with an official music video that shows Tucker Nichol making the difficult choice to walk away in order to put herself and her mental health first and becoming more confident and self-assured.

“Do I need you? Nah. Wanna see you? Nah. Will I believe you? Nah. Oh, I know it eats you up inside. Should you call me? Nah. Can you reach me? Nah. Am I sorry? Nah,” sang Tucker Nichol, putting into words the bold transformation of those who have succeeded in putting an end to relationships that bring nothing but pain.

Since its drop, “Nah” has resonated with countless listeners, serving as a well-needed prompt to prioritize mental health above anything else. It also propelled Tucker Nichol further toward the spotlight and helped her make a mark as a relatable artist whose transition from an illustrious pageant career to the highly competitive music scene is a must-watch.

Authenticity-driven and armed with a heart-on-your-sleeve brand of storytelling, Tucker Nichol is expected to rise through the ranks and enjoy a higher position in the limelight in the years to come. Industry peers and listeners alike can look forward to what this awe-inspiring recording artist has to offer moving forward.
