Brent Faiyaz

Brent Faiyaz is an American singer and songwriter who has carved a unique niche within the contemporary R&B landscape with his smooth vocal delivery and introspective lyrics. Born Christopher Brent Wood on September 19, 1995, Faiyaz first garnered attention with his 2016 debut single "Invite Me" and soared to prominence as part of the group Sonder alongside producers Atu and Dpat. His lush and intimate approach to soul and R&B, fused with lo-fi production elements, quickly distinguished him as an artist to watch.

Faiyaz's solo career took a major leap forward with his appearance on the Goldlink hit "Crew," earning him a Grammy nomination in 2017. He continued to solidify his reputation through projects like the introspective "Sonder Son" (2017) and the assertive "Lost" EP (2018). His 2020 single "Dead Man Walking" exemplifies his nonchalant charisma and penchant for raw storytelling. With the release of his ambitious project "WASTELAND" in 2022, which includes collaborations with Drake, The Neptunes, and Tyler, The Creator, Faiyaz has pushed the boundaries of his artistry and created a deeply personal narrative arc that explores fame, love, and his journey through life. His singles "Gravity" and "Wasting Time" further display his ability to blend soulfully resonant vocals with contemporary production, securing his position as a leading voice in modern R&B.
