Pierre King is an American singer-songwriter/producer. As an independent artist with 90's R&B attributing to the soundtrack of his life, Pierre King takes elements of the records he grew up on and connects the dots within his own creative realm.
At an early age, King was impacted by artists such as Prince, Outkast, and Missy Elliott, along with vocalists like Kelis and Brandy's experimental approach to the Hip-Hop/R&B genre. King wanted to echo what he heard and that inspired him to start making beats at age 12. While in school, he was introduced to the art of writing poetry, soon after he began harmonizing with the radio, teaching himself to vocalize. After leaving school, King began producing, recording and releasing his own music.
This musical journey helped King not only hone his craft, it abetted the development of an eclectic mix of soul, electronic and hip hop elements paired with a signature smooth, breezy vocal. As a Chicago Native, King is claiming his spot in the world amongst the influential taste makers from his hometown, in his way.
