Born as: Orenthal Johnson & Willie Shine
AND THE STORY IS TOLD...
“As men, aren't we sick and tired of these whining, groveling R&B singers pouring out every last drop of pride a man has to stand on? Well, Big Thangs is here to end all that!”
- “Ro “ C.E.O. of Gorilla Ent Group
“The soul of crooning and being a real man is back!”
- Young Clep
This ain't today's R&B…
Big Thangs is the singing phenomenon that is quenching the thirst of cognac drinkers, Black & Mild connoisseurs, thick young women, and audiences everywhere that have been waiting to hear some real Rhythm & Blues music! Big Thangs is the R&B group consisting of two charismatic artists known as Orenthal “Sweet” Johnson and Willie Shine (a.k.a. Billy Ray Valentine). They capture the essence of what it is to be a real man with there panoramic, picturesque lyrics while delivering the entire package over melodies that will have your Grandma tapping and your Auntie stepping!
Big Thangs provides R&B with the check-up that its been needing. They take R&B music to the limits by grabbing love songs by the nuts and making them cough! Oh yeah, it's that serious. Soul, Blues, Calypso, Hip-Hop, Jazz, Gospel, and R&B have all played a major part in creating the unique sound that is Big Thangs.
The days of men whining and losing their manhood over the mic are over! Its time for an end to the weeping and crying, the total lack of talent and originality! No, to remedy this problem a little cure just won't do. We gonna need some Big Thangs to make this right.
Big Thangs is the future of Rhythm & Blues! And these niggas are bringing the cure!
Its time for Big Thangs…
