Attractions noticed Shauns awesome interpersonal
skills as he worked hard getting every scene right.
When other's got frustrated Shaun Anthony smiled and
did what he had to do to get work done. The majority
of the music video shaun wore a pare of shades which
at one point ended up missing. Shaun Anthony kept his
cool the entire time and got work done.
When Shaun Anthony
finally got a break we talked for good amount of time
about many subjects. Simply just having a goodtime the
key points of the interview went something like this:
What is song
about? “The song/concept is about me seeing/meeting a
woman and off bat im blown away by her, and basically
I’m pursuing her and telling her to come talk/be with
me.”
What is the album about? “This mixtape is pretty much
a blend of new hip hop and RnB in my own inventive
style. It was made to re-vive RnB and since my love
and passion for music derives from RnB that is how I
came up with the title “RnB Love”
What/who inspired you to sing? “My mother was a big
influence in my life for singing because I grew up
listening to her and my aunts always sing in the
church choir and that is how I began when I was a
young boy. My other influences to sing were artists
like Micheal Jackson, Boys 2 men, Brian Mcknight,
Tank, Usher. I grew up listeing to early 90’s RnB and
fell in love from the start.”
When did you know you wanted to write music for a
living? “It was not until about 3 yrs ago when I
decided that I wanted to really pursue my dream and
make this thing become a reality. I would always play
the piano and make up stuff to sing with what I was
playing so I figured I would give it a shot and be
really serious about it.”
What is your perspective or feel on your genre of
music today? “I feel that true RnB has taken a bit of
the back burner role. We went from classic love making
joints and feel good music to just being hook singers
on rappers songs. I do feel that RnB is coming back
throught certain artist such as Tank, Jaime Foxx, Trey
Songz, and definetely Ne-yo. So there are some artist
def trying to bring it back to that level that we once
were at. The Dwele, Anthony Hamilton’s, Musiq
Soulchild, Maxwell, are all pushing to bring back that
true feel good music that we all love.”
How long have you been in the business?
“Professionally 2yrs”
What is your favorite work done by you? “So far it is
this music video that we are currently wrapping up and
my mixtape project in whole. My journey has come a far
way from just doing a lot of artist development the
1st year and featuring on several artist tracks to
finally coming into my own and finding my niche in
this game.”
Have you worked with anyone famous? “I have no had the
opportunity to work with an artist one on one, but I
have met with several ones and received positive
feedback from big names such as Kevin Black Lydia
Harris, and Skatta Burrell.”
What is the next big project? “The next big project
will be my debut album which I plan on having in
stores by mid next year. I will definitely have feat
by big name artist and producers in the game. For now
I am continuing to work hard to get this record
deal...and investing in myself to get there. I have a
great team that surrounds me and pushes me and I
believe that working hard and continuing to make
records, mixtapes, videos, and albums will pay off.
You will see me at the top!!!”
