Mishon™

-Incredible singer, songwriter, producer, dancer, and actor, Mishon (My-

Shawn) is carving his way though the new wave of R&B music and

beyond. The impressive Southern California native’s smooth vocals and

impeccable perfect pitch caught the attention of fans globally. With more

than 10 million YouTube views, the 20-year-old “Excuse Me Mama” singer

has organized an army of solidified supporters enhancing his every

industry move. His second single “Just a Kiss” climbed to the No. 2 slot on

BET’s 106 and Park and #13 on the Billboard R&B charts. This success

led to co-hosting the popular television program as well as making his

national musical debut on BET’s Black College tour all at the age of 16.

When Mishon – whose name is a simple mash up of Michael Shontay –

sang his emotional yet convicting rendition of “Lean On Me” at his

grandfather’s funeral, he continued his quest for stardom by touring the

country and releasing new material and videos through Dynasty Records.

Appearing on Soul Train at 11, performing on national shows daily and

singing from his soul became the lifestyle for the budding star. With much

success independently, and a top 20 R&B single, his journey landed him

and Dynasty Records a record deal with Columbia Records.

Inspired by Michael Jackson, Usher, Jodeci and N’Sync, Mishon’s maturity

is developed beyond his years and his intense work ethic, earned him the

nickname “Yung Hustle” among peers. Well-earned, the guitar and

keyboard player, writer and producer of his own songs, Mishon showcased

his talents in school and music showcases to sharpen his stage presence.

“Michael Jackson is my biggest influence. It’s astonishing to watch him

perform,” Mishon said.


Spending most of his teen years performing and opening for music acts

such as Rhianna, T-Pain, Bow Wow, Day 26, Mario and Trey Songz, he

expresses, “I have always been a singer. It came natural for me.” To guide

Mishon’s talent, his cousin/manager, Doe Henderson and Gerald Lacey,

developed the natural born talent into a versatile entertainer. At 12 years

old, Mishon was given the opportunity to act in his first television role on

the hit ABC Family drama “Lincoln Heights” as Tay, whose storyline

mimicked Mishon’s real life due to his major success.

With an eternal mission dedicated to creating quality music for fans to

enjoy, Mishon released 'The Gift' a mixtape that personifies R&B at it's

finest. Classic tracks like 'Gimme Yo Love', 'Sexy Up In Here', and 'Enjoy'

take you on a journey through history, a time when singers were singing.

The first single 'Overtyme' is the new anthem for every woman that works

hard and goes above and beyond for her family, her positioning, her

success. In this must-hear song, Mishon shows his appreciation for our

mothers, sisters, girlfriends and wives. Mishon is an artist on the horizon

with the focus of a music trendsetter and heart of a veteran. His many

talents and ability to seek knowledge gained him the nickname “Yung

Hustle” for his progressing hunger to win. This amazing talent is a

quadruple threat seeking to create an avenue and one day solidify his

name in music history. “Success does not come overnight,” he said. “I will

stop at nothing to reach the top and show the world Mishon is here to

stay”.
