Sometimes I press record, and this is the outcome

Enjoy,

Robert Luther King born, Robert Allan King, to mother, Opal Arthur, and father, Robbie King, June 17, 1982, in Santa Clara California. 

His mother immigrated to the United States from the small country of Belize.  His father was an American born man and distant relative of Martin Luther King.  

Before he was a couple months old, his father left his mother.  At the time she was 19 years old, with a newborn baby.  Since she wasn't in a stable situation, she went to live with her sister and several different relatives, and moved multiple times all over the Los Angeles area.  At the age of 14, Robert's mother passed away due to some unknown reason, and it is still unknown.  Left to fend for himself, Robert lived with multiple relatives and ended up moving to Belize to live with my grandparents for a couple of years.  

With nothing much to do in the slow, laid-back atmosphere of Belize, specifically Stann Creek, Robert found his love of music by watching BET an MTV Music videos. Making up his own words to the songs, and developing his own style, he started to write music, never really thinking much of it it.  But soon it became an addiction.... He wrote everywhere!  "I have trashbags full of songs that I've written and it became something special to me, " Robert stated. 

Returning back to the United States for high school with a heavy accent, he had the dream of one day becoming an artists with a unique style, integrating 90's R&B, Old-School Dancehall Music, Classic Hip-Hop, and New-School Rap, to create his own unique style . 

After graduating from Washington High School in the Los Angeles area, he worked multiple jobs.  Being a unique personality, he was fired multiple times for writing music on the job, being late, and just not being a consistent employee.  Because of his creativity, it became difficult for him to work a boring 9 to 5 job.  Eventually, he found a sales job that he could do.  It was something that gave him an outlet to use his creativity and his "way with words" to make a living.  It also provided enough income for him to be able to afford studio time and purchase recording equipment. 

After paying for studio time many times, Robert eventually taught himself how to operate ProTools (DAW) recorded himself to save money, and was able to put his own music together. 

In my mid-2003, Robert moved to the Las Vegas area in search of a better economic situation.  He was able to use his sales skills to make a decent living, while still pursuing his passion for music.   He teamed up with my younger brother, Stephen Flowers, who was into recording engineering, and making beats.  "We started collaborating.  I was writing songs to his beats, so it was the perfect combination.  We recorded multiple songs, and for years I got to work on and develop my style with his help.  I also went through some of the craziest relationships that a man can have," King explained.  Those "crazy" relationships eventually spilled over into his lyrics and music, and became a part of his unique story-telling style in his songs.

Robert sent out demos for many years, trying to find my way into the music business.  He eventually found myself on the "Shade 45" XM radio station's "Demo Battle," which is hosted by Lord Sear. This opportunity gave him an avenue to display his skills and talents, and show the world that he belongs in the music industry, as one of it most fresh and unique artists.
