Chicago Pop Singer Falls

Online, July 9, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Armed with smooth and delivering a powerhouse electro-pop/rb sound, Troy D. is sweeping crowds from the west coast through the mid-west. He's climbing the charts with not only 1..2..but 3 songs on AMA Hits (AMAHits.com)! He was recently crowned the with the Rising Star Award in Hollywood at the (BMA) Music Awards. Chicago stand behind this rising star.

Troy D was recently awarded the Rising Star Award at the Black Music Awards in Hollywood. He swept his audience when he closed the show with his single, "S'wet." ESPN recognizes him as the 2010 voice of the National Anthem. Chicago singers had little to no time to impress the stations casting team with a catchy music performance. Soon after, ESPN teamed up with the Chicago White Sox and Troy D to deliver a power, soulful, live National Anthem for 25,000 fans. Just months later, he took the stage again and was crowned the 2010 Chicago Road to Fame champion, an idol-like competition where singers compete for cash and recording prizes. He sailed through ballads, powered through soul, and pounded his way through rock and roll, yes, rock and roll. Mr. Smooth takes his audience wherever he goes. He was also a 2010 contestant in the $20,000 Big Break sing-off where he captured the hearts of the judges and brought the audience and judges to their feet with applause that smothered the room. Many of his fans remember him as the powerful, soulful, and comical Audrey II in an off-Broadway production of Little Shop of Horrors. He added his soulful touch to the live show.
