Reborn Brilliance aka "R&B"

In a time with so much room for innovation in the music industry, a producer/songwriter that pays close attention to the qualities of organic music is a breath of fresh air.

'RnB', born Brandon Hoffman, is native to Orange County, CA. Brandon's love for music emerged from listening to Rhythm n Blues and Soul music with his mother as a child. He began his own musical quest at the young age of nine when he taught himself how to read music using a recorder he played in his elementary school.

By age twelve he recognized his intense passion for music when he began writing songs and revived his artistic expression by saving his allowance to purchase his first Casio keyboard. Brandon taught himself to play the scales, leading him to learn how to play those Rhythm n Blues he loved along with jazz and classical piano styles.

Originally he was given his nickname 'RnB' by a local hip hop artist that Brandon produced. The artist simply stated, ''He IS RnB'', referring to the fact that Brandon was one of few his age who not only had a very large Rhythm n Blues record collection; but also because he had so much knowledge and love for the genre of music. At the beginning 'RnB' defined Brandon, but eventually Brandon redefined 'RnB'. As he mentally, spiritually, and musically matured and overcame obstacles, the nickname took on a much deeper meaning than just a music genre. 'Reborn Brilliance' became the new definition of his alias, representing how his life had been reborn and renewed. And brilliance being what he constantly strives for as well as a description of his intellectual outlook witnessed through his lyrics and message.

In his late teenage years, Brandon became inspired by the unorthodox style of Marvin Gaye and the creative genius of Steve Wonder. He thoroughly studied their decades of musical works along with their lives. These two legends pushed him to embark on his life committed journey of becoming a pioneer in the music industry who used his creative gift as a way to uplift and educate the masses.

Currently at the age of 20, after achieving a B.A. Degree in Business with high honors, RnB continues to extensively study music. He has created a rebirth of his music from its minimalist to sophisticated and is now ready to share his gifts with the world.
