Pierre Fleming: A Hidden R & B Legend

 

Vibe Highlights

“I feel like R&B is making its comeback I’m just waiting on the big re-entry so to speak.”

He had one feature on the EP which was whine one time ft Alex flow

 Best advice someone ever gave him:

Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.

You may not have known but NC has many amazing talents and this singer/ songwriter and or Artist: Pierre Fleming, who was born and raised in Wilson NC is one of the hidden Legends. He is highly devoted to music, and he shares a passion for video production & photography.

 

His current single is called SHOW ME which was released in 2021 along with his EP entitled Seven Vibes. The inspiration that motivated him to create the pair was based on past experiences. He witnessed relatable perspectives through the eyes of others and wanted to vibe along with topics that would captivate his audience.  

He always had the ability to sing yet at the age of 18 he started writing his own songs because he didn’t know of any dedicated songwriters. In the beginning of his career, he started with many local indie concerts. He even won a first-place award in a local competition in 2014. He stayed inspired by all the prominent singers of that time; MJ, R Kelly, Usher, Tyrese, Joe just to name a few and each Artist had a different element that he liked, which shows in his music today.

We listen to Artist collaborations every day. The Artists go on tour, end up on billboards, and magazines together. So Wait! Wait! before you continue reading go check out one of Pierre Flemings' songs then close your eyes just for a minuet and imagine reading a flyer with the names: Pierre Fleming and H.E.R ( 5 time grammy winner) on the cover. The harmonies are undeniable and with such a smooth connected sound and relatable lyrics from both parties there is no other choice but to sit back and listen.

An Artist collaboration is just one door. There are many unique opportunities for him to be successful. We will hear more songs, see more music videos and live performances. He also wants to eventually start his own label and sign his own artists. You never know you could be the next big thing to blow up on his label, so keep your ear to the streets!

Ariana Rosado- Dancer for an NBA Team

Her name is Ariana Rosado and she’s from East Chicago, IN.

She always thought it would be cool to be a dancer, however she had a bit of a different dance journey than most.  She didn’t start taking dance seriously until she went to college.  She played sports and acted in high school and wanted to be a broadcast journalist. But, once she got to college she double majored in mass communication and business marketing and tried out for the college dance team. It was then that her focus shifted to dance as she fell more and more in love with performing. 

She started getting into personal training after she began competing in NPC competitions.  She loves being able to work with clients and see them transform.  She hopefully will continue to spread knowledge and help people build confidence and strength mentally and physically. 

Her first big audition was for Beyonce on Oprah’s last airing of her show on ABC.  She and her team didn’t have to have any specific dance routine prepared but during the competition there was a small freestyle section. It was after booking that gig that she knew she wanted to continue dance and audition for an NBA team.

When she got the position on the NBA team they started having scheduled practices about 2 times a week. Yet, of course to be great at anything there must be constant practice. So, she does a lot of outside training to make sure she can perform at her absolute best. 

Her family was very excited for her when they found out that she was selected to be one of the dancers’ for an NBA team. They saw a lot of her training and preparation that went into her getting ready for the auditions.  She worked hard and they were happy to see that all her hard work and determination paid off. Their continual support is always what keeps her going.  No matter what new ventures she picks up, they are always by her side and are her biggest supporters.

The most eventful game was when she was performing and mid performance the other dancers broke out into a separate routine. She didn’t know about it but it was done so that her boyfriend at the time could propose to her. They aren’t together anymore but the memory will always be something she holds near and dear to her heart as many people came together to make the experience special for me. 

There isn’t much motivation needed to keep dancing for the NBA. It is an amazing experience so every year I am excited to see what the new season brings. I’ve gotten the chance to perform with Artists throughout halftime performances, travel to places like Canada, China, and Taiwan, and go to NBA All- Star games.  It’s been an incredible opportunity.

Hobbies and Fun Questions

She doesn’t have much free time with 3 jobs and side gigs that she frequently picks up. But when she does get time she enjoys working out, trying new restaurants and traveling to new places.

If she could be a superhero her superpower would be to travel through time. To go back and forth through time and see how history has changed and meet people she otherwise would never get a chance to learn from.

She predominately uses Instagram (@Arirosado) and Facebook, but she also has twitter (rosado_Ari) and youtube (Ariana Rosado).

Comedy Coming Up From The South: Darren Brand aka "Big Baby"

Darren Brand is a multi-faceted individual with great taste in style and comedy. He is from Southern Pines, NC. He was twenty-five years old when he realized that he wanted to be a comedian. A lot of people know him as "Big Baby" from the WildnOut cast season 7&8.

He became be a boss, comedian, and host just through his everyday interactions. It kinda just happen. He really didn't know you could make a living being a comedian and not have a huge name, but he had business partners in "nxlevel" who later inspired him to become an entrepreneur.

He drove from Charlotte NC to NYC for his first 15 minute audition. He later recalls that his first time meeting NICK CANNON was at his second audition in NYC. His adventures continued with him recording live and some of his most memorable moments he had on WildnOut were smoking with Snoop Dogg , the hype vibes of the Travis Scott and Waka Flaka episodes.

He has been busy making boss moves with hosting and and co-hosting homecoming step-shows, Women's empowerment, Joking Off, and being the opening comic for Comedy Central. He found that audience love him on stage and he has performed stand up comedy all over the world. He does it full time now. It's how he makes the majority of his living.

When he isn't on stage making money off his jokes and witty comical style he enjoys listening to all types of music. He shares that some of his favorite artists are Drake, Big Sean and Wayne. He gets to hang out and party with Music Artists, but when asked if he could party with any famous celebrity he joking replies that he would choose President Obama and his reason was "cause I know he turn up behind closed doors."

When asked If he could give advice to his 15 year old self he said he would "Start doing stand up now and take it serious." In all his success he still has goals for himself. The two goals that he would like to accomplish in let's say the next 5 to 7 months are to be apart of a theater or arena show of 2500 or more people. He is always pushing himself to achieve greater and when asked what was the hardest thing he had to do in his career he told us that it was when he quit 9-5. He jumped out there and started depending solely on his talent and it was scary but it had to be done.

Changes, Making Moves, Blessings

I haven't had much time to write. I, honestly have been so busy getting my life in order. If I'm not at work (yes, I finally got that new job that I was praying for!) then I'm at rehearsal with the band or writing music, modeling or studying my lines for the musical that I'm in. 

God has opened doors big time for me and I'm truly grateful and thankful. I want to thank all the people that were in my corner and who are still there. I'm not completely out of the woods just yet. I still have more preparing to do. 

Sometimes right before we are about to give up, and throw in the towel God is like: "wait, before you do that, let me show you what I can do." 

How did I get my new job? The job that I really wanted? By being diligent in prayer, having a bold faith and being consistent in putting my resume out there. I did not even have to have a formal interview. She, my supervisor, told me that as soon as she heard that I needed a job she hired me right on the spot!

No trial period. No run around. The job was already  mine as soon as she heard I needed one. 

If that isn't Gods' favor then I don't know what it is!!!!!! 

See, I finally got tired of being tired.
I finally got tired of watching other people receive their blessings and wondering where mine was. Sometimes our blessings don't come to us because there is someone or something stand in the way and or we haven't made up our minds that we are ready to receive them yet. 

SO, I finally made up my mind that I want and will have better for myself. 

I am determined to live a peaceful and financially stable life. 

I am determined to be a successful supermodel, songstress, business woman, wife and mother (in the future lol). I am determined to have the life that I want and nothing and no one will stop me nor stand in my way.
