Romeo

Romeo是米老鼠俱樂(lè)部性感巧克力帥哥、迪斯尼的幼齒搖錢樹、運(yùn)動(dòng)服裝品牌P.Miller最年輕代言人、好萊塢電影出鏡率最高的黑人男孩。這位還未成年的黑人小伙子，在12歲時(shí)就出版了他的第一張同名專輯，并憑借處男作《My Baby》一躍美國(guó)公告牌排行榜單曲榜前3名！當(dāng)時(shí)這位還未變聲、嗓音稍顯稚嫩卻可愛(ài)至極的黑人男孩，給人的感覺(jué)就像21世紀(jì)的小邁克爾·杰克遜，或是微縮版的威爾·史密斯。古靈精怪的Romeo有他自己的一套親近樂(lè)迷的哲學(xué)，輕而易舉就俘獲了人們的心，不管是和他同年齡的小朋友，還是他眼中的那些大人，都無(wú)法抵御他的幼齒浪漫和帥氣電波！ The son of hardcore Southern rap mogul Master P, Romeo enjoyed a number one R&B/rap hit with his debut single, "My Baby," released in 2001, when the rapper (then known as Lil' Romeo) was only 11 years old. "My Baby" came close to topping Billboard's all-inclusive Hot 100 chart, where it peaked at number three. Along with Lil' Bow Wow, who was also enjoying remarkable debut success as the time, Romeo proved that a sizable market existed for clean-cut preteen rappers with cute looks and PG-rated rhymes. In subsequent years, he established himself as an actor on Nickelodeon and also proved a talented basketball player. Born Percy Romeo Miller, Jr., on August 19, 1989, in New Orleans, Romeo grew up in a family defined by rap music. Not only was his father, Master P, a mogul -- he was the founder and most popular act of No Limit Records, one of the most astounding commercial success stories of the recording industry during the late '90s (if critically lambasted) -- two of his uncles (Silkk the Shocker and C-Murder) were also well-known rappers. Romeo's debut album, Lil' Romeo (2001), was released shortly after the No Limit empire had fallen into a state of shamble, and though it alone couldn't salvage the label's declining fortunes, it was a windfall success, spawning a Top Three hit single ("My Baby," an interpolation of the Jackson 5's "I Want You Back"), going platinum in a week's time, and going on to sell roughly two million copies. A follow-up album, Gametime (2002), followed a year later and outsold its predecessor (selling roughly two and a half million) despite peaking at only number 33 on the Billboard album chart and spawning no major hits. Romeo's next album, Romeoland (2004), included material from his TV show, Romeo!, and sold only a fraction (i.e., a quarter million) of what his previous album had. Greatest Hits (2006) followed, bringing his days as Lil' Romeo to an unceremonious close; he would thereafter go solely by the name Romeo. A pair of albums, Lottery and God's Gift, were also released in 2006, the former Internet-only; neither proved commercially significant, spawning no charting singles (though videos were produced for a few songs, including "U Can't Shine Like Me"). In 2007 Romeo collaborated with his father on the album Hip Hop History, billed to the Miller Boyz; previously he had collaborated with his brother Young V and cousins Lil' D and C-Los on the album Young Ballers: The Hood Been Good to Us (2005), billed to the Rich Boyz. 更多>>
