Brooklyn, New York — Tuesday, April 21st, 2020 — The artist that has been immersed with famous artists – the entertainer who will ENTERTAIN you – a larger than the normal resume – and a ‘person’ for ALL the people.  This man is more than meets the eye and not just your cliche entertainer.


This man has sung in front of Michael Jackson, Rihanna, Aubrey O’Day (Making The Band), and Ashley Simpson, danced as a contestant on SYTYCD (season 8) and made it to the top 16.  He has won 7 music showcases in NYC as an indie artist.   He teaches dance classes as a full-time faculty member at a world-famous school – Broadway Dance Center, he has performed as a singer with ‘The Harlem James Gang’ (in which John Legend has highly praised this group as well as the group coming as the Runner Ups on America’s Got Talent).  This non-cliche-artist has a lot of shares, a lot to show, and a lot to give.


You can find his music, including his new single “Unity (For The World)”, which correlates with today’s current epidemic situation, on SoundCloud, Spotify, Itunes, CDBaby, Apple Music, and Google Music


His goal and mission are to put the real-good-make-you-feel-good clean music out there.  The songs are about relationships, love, or peace.  I believe that we an all change the world for the better within the sound and the resonance of music that will soothe you.


RTJ (Robert Taylor Jr) has been around/performed as an artist in places like Sweden, Russia, India, and the UK.  In NYC, his hometown, he has performed at clubs like Leftfield, The Bitter End, Club Drom, Best Bar, The West End, The Highline Ballroom, Arlene’s Grocery, The Bowery Poetry Club, SOB’s, Fontana’s, & The Central Park Boathouse
