SOHH, if you don’t know, Brent is an indie R&B artist originally from Baltimore, Maryland. Hailed as “D’Angelo mixed with The Weeknd,” Brent moved to L.A in 2016 to get his career popping.
The “Wasting Time” artist has been consistently making a name for himself in the industry, starting off his career with the musical group Sonder where Brent is the lead vocalist. They’ve produced songs such as, “Too Fast,” “Lovely” and “Searching.”
However, Brent’s claim to fame was his famous chorus on the song “Crew” by Goldlink in 2017. Brent was nominated for a Grammy for the song back in 2018.
Since then, he’s come out with numerous hits, all while remaining independent. Brent Faiyaz has collaborated with some of the biggest names in hip-hop most recently with his song “Wasting Time” featuring Drake that was produced by Pharrell Williams.
Brent Faiyaz was also one of the many artists featured on the recent Baby Keem album “Melodic Blue”. Keem added Brent’s feature to “Lost Souls” later on after the album started charting.
