His work has earned three Grammy nominations and two wins for his contributions to Tank and the Bangas' The Heart, The Mind, The Soul and Lucky Daye's Algorithm, establishing him as one of today's most versatile and forward-thinking creative voices.
But Brown's journey isn't defined by awards, it’s defined by creating music that moves people. Blending soul, rock, funk, and alternative R&B, his songwriting and production reflect a fearless commitment to authenticity, whether collaborating with artists like Lucky Daye, Tank and the Bangas, Masego, and Ariana Grande, or releasing music with his band BLVK CVSTLE.
Beyond the studio, Brown is passionate about building community. His BLVK Ocean beach gatherings, co-founded with Yonas Michael, have become a Southern California staple, bringing together music, wellness, spirituality, and connection in a way that continues to grow beyond the coast.

That journey leads to Brown's most anticipated project yet: a brand new album that marks his boldest artistic statement to date. Together, his previous releases and forthcoming music tell one continuous story of growth, creative freedom, and fearless self-expression.
As the son of Rebbie Jackson and nephew to Michael, Janet, Tito, Jackie, Jermaine, Randy, Lat Toya and Marlon Jackson, Brown was born into one of music's most iconic families. Yet every step of his career has been earned through his own vision, craftsmanship, and relentless dedication to the art.

JENTL
JENTL is nightpop from Los Angeles: the alternative electronic project of singer, songwriter, and producer Darren Dominique Davis. Built around dance-driven production and daring pop songwriting, JENTL explores identity and relationships through songs that feel vulnerable and alive.
Before JENTL, Davis developed a restless, genre-fluid creative language through projects including Dearling Physique, Domino Davis, and Forest Haze. Dearling Physique grew out of experimental rock and electronic composition, earning early praise for its dark, cinematic sound and Davis’ fearless performance style. Forest Haze, an R&B/electronic duo based between Berlin and Minneapolis, further expanded his work as a songwriter, singer, and visual concept artist.
JENTL brings those histories into a sharper, more dance-driven form. Described as “Frank Ocean fronting the Eurythmics,” the project pairs self-reflective songwriting with bold, cinematic production and an energetic stage show shaped by Davis’ long history as a performer. Recent releases include People Change and More People Change, with collaborators including Dan Freeman, Russell Graham, Omar Hakim, Nick Marks, and Chris Keating.

Tommy Lloyd
For more than a decade, Tommy Lloyd cut his teeth playing in rock bands, chasing songs, and carving out his voice as a frontman and writer for Lip Candy and 20K Rio. Now, he’s finally stepping out on his own.
Tommy Lloyd’s solo music carries the DNA of his past bands but leans further into sincerity and emotional weight. The hooks are still there, the edge still intact—but the lyrics are more personal, more reflective, and undeniably real.
This new chapter isn’t a departure so much as a distillation: it’s rock music with scars, reflection, and clarity, marking the most honest work of his career.

20K RIO
After meeting at a backyard show in Southern California, Tommy Lloyd and Luke Caro, came together to form the duo, 20K Rio. It became their mission to create a new rock sound that resonated with contemporary audiences, while showcasing impressive instrumentation and technical skill.
20K Rio has the “attitude of an arena-rock outfit, bathed in 80’s synth beats and unhinged guitar solos,” as put by Tate Logan of Idobi Radio. The new sound lives in a “world of gritty grunge” pop, mixing dark and cinematic production with captivating guitar and vocal melodies.
Crediting bands like Muse for their instrumental inspiration all while crediting artists like Justin Timberlake and The Weeknd for their vocal melody/lyrical inspiration, it’s easy to see why 20K Rio’s sound is an oddly satisfying mix of sonic ingredients. That sound paired up with a stellar live show performance, 20K Rio is as fresh and as thrilling as alternative music gets.
