Description

Anthony Hamilton Tickets Anthony Hamilton is generally regarded as a top performer on the modern soul and R&B music scenes. Hamilton is the recipient of 12 Grammy nominations and was the 2009 winner in the Best Traditional R&B Performance category. Anthony Hamilton has been compared to artists like Al Green and Bobby Womack. He has lived up to these comparisons by bringing the same powerful vocals and onstage energy for which his predecessors in the field were famed. From Church to the Big Stage Anthony Hamilton became a member of his church choir when he was 10 years old. He also performed with the award-winning South Mecklenburg High School choir in his hometown of Charlotte, N.C., during his high school years. Hamilton became acquainted with producer Mark Sparks in 1992. Sparks was so impressed with the singer's vocal abilities that he talked him into leaving Charlotte and moving to New York City. Once in New York, Hamilton signed with Uptown Records. His big break would come a few years later when he was asked to sing the chorus on Po' Folks by the rap group Nappy Roots. The success of the Grammy-nominated track paved the way for Hamilton to collaborate with some of the biggest stars in the music industry. His list of collaborators includes Tupac Shakur, Jaheim, Jadakiss, Jill Scott and Twista. Three of Hamilton's seven studio albums have reached gold or platinum status, and the artist was a featured performer at a White House function hosted by President Barack Obama in 2016. He took home a Grammy Award for You've Got the Love That I Need, a hit performed with Al Green. Anthony Hamilton has also been honored with nominations for a number of other prestigious awards including the BET Music Awards, Soul Train Music Awards, and NAACP Image Awards. He was the winner of a BET Music Award in 2006.
