notes

Bobby is a native of Boston who began his professional music career in 2000. At the time he was about eighteen years old when he decided to take his gift more seriously and write his first song. Ever since then the music hasn't stopped. Bobby is now twenty- four years old and pursuing a career in the gospel music industry. The particular thing about Bobby and how he got his start in gospel R&B is that it wasn't always gospel lyrics that he laced his music with. Known as "Reason" at the time he began in 2000, he received several opportunities to perform on the same stages as popular secular artists such as Ludacris, Fabolous, Fat Joe, 112 and even more.

On top of those already exemplary exploits, Bobby had a full length secular R&B album that received recognition by some of the top record labels in that genre of music. With him actually in the room, a record executive from Atlantic Records critiqued his album, The Voice of Reason in their New York headquarters. Later, Conrad Dimanche an A&R from Bad Boy saw Bobby in Philly singing at Club Flow in a talent showcase and immediately took interest. Mr. Dimanche was so interested in Bobby's talent that he flew into Massachusetts to hear him sing once again to see if he was the real deal. It turns out that Mr. Dimanche believed so and offered Bobby an opportunity to write for Bad Boy's leading R&B singer, Carl Thomas.

Since then, which was the end of 2002 and the beginning of 2003, Bobby has turned from trying to do things that way. The lifestyle of a Pop/ R&B star seemed to be getting tired and too stressful. Maybe one can say it was because of the types of people that he dealt with, but he likes to believe that God always had a plan and way of escape for him if he ever wanted to go running to the Lord. It turns out that God did hear his voice when he prayed: "God, I'm confused." It was in January on the 11th back in 2003 that God spoke to Bobby through a man of God who offered him Christ. It was a man he had never met and even engaged in a conversation with. But, the young man told Bobby that God had preserved his life in order for him to fulfill a purpose that God had designed for his life. Bobby, now convinced that God had a purpose for him decided right then and there to follow Christ. Since that time he has recorded an album entitled, Drawn Out, which speaks of the process God has brought him through. Drawn Out from the world to follow a path Drawn Out by God. This inspirational album was the product of the work of Bobby and a good friend, Alfred L. Watkins III, who supplied the instrumental counterpart for all the songs but one, "Crazy Praise", for which the music written by Norsette John "Saint Man" Saint Jean Jr. Now, OutWord Ministries is the vehicle Bobby uses to convey his message to the generations of today and tomorrow.

This is a testimony of how God delivered my music career. If you'd like me to fill in any gaps, send me an email, I'll be glad to.

    Bobby is a very unique artist who was evidently lead by the Holy Spirit in creating a masterpiece. Each song captivates and inspires its listener by the artist showing relation to each scenario...it's like he experienced every song - which makes him even easier to listen to. Bobby, God made no mistake in chosing you to do this work.

    author: Denise v d L.

    This cd has a great sound with really good lyrics!! You really should listen to it..

  • Impressive
    author: Steve

    Highly impressed. You give a new variation to the complicated vocal style of R&B which you manage quite nicely. Your strength is in your poetic lyrics which stand out from the over simplistic songs of praise, by donating your deep self-introspection combined with a unique biblical perspective.

  • This Wonderous Cd Is Soulful And Divine.
    author: Sheila Michel

    I mostly like this Cd because I can relate to it. And the beats ahh man there B-E-A-UTIFUL. Oh yeah track # 10 Aight Disciple. Yo I go to sleep listening to this cd every night thats how sublime it is.Much Props Man. May The Lord Bless You And Keep You. SO WHEN IS THAT NEXT CD COMING OUT?

  • a look inside
    author: S. Marks

    "Drawn Out" is more than just bumpin' and bangin' and the lyrics are more than merely soulful or insightful. This CD is a perspective on life, God, and a barren heart that found both. I'm grateful to know Bobby personally as we attend Lee University and make music, but even without that privilege, his "Drawn Out" is deep - an unveiling of his pain, joy and love. Gratz on a good piece of art, B.

  • author: J.D Brenke

    "Drawn Out"...great CD...awesome beats...deep lyrics...LIFE CHANGING music...you can definitely see and hear that God is behind what Bobby has done. I had the honor of playing one of the songs for him, at Lee University (where I attend school with him)...it was "Nothing Left"...we played and he sang at chapel..it was awesome to say the least, God definitely touched lives then as he still is doing today. The CD is good, the artist is genuine and real...and as a friend of Bobby's I can vouch and say that this CD is truly about his life...get it, and get ready to hear the "Voice of God" not the "Voice of Reason"... :-)

  • GET IT NOW!

  • Excellent work from a gifted vessel of God
    author: Haneef N. Nelson

    This CD is a great example of the Gospel message in song through the experience of one of God's chosen vessels. This is not just any ordinary CD, but it is also inspiration for all of those who are like to listen to R&B, that God's word can be communicated to them in a way that they can hear it.
