Bertell - Going Hard

After an epic journey, Bertell Young is finally on the verge of unleashing his first album. Capitol Records' newest rising R&B star had the determination to turn his life around after being involved in street life. From doomed deals with the wrong management to opening for prominent acts such as R. Kelly and Trey Songz, Bertell is now living up to the challenge he set himself: "Show the world there is no downtime in Music." 

Known across the South, Houston's Bertell has not forgotten his days selling mixtapes in the streets until Bryan-Michael Cox ,legendary Grammy-winning  songwriter-producer, took him under his wing. Together they worked on the opus "Going Hard" set to hit the stores May 5th.

Now Urban radio's most added record, the official single "Beat it up" is a mid-tempo heater that flaunts Bertell's unique vocal tone and his knack for keen writing. Bertell recently declared “Music is sold off of believability, so there’s only so many songs someone else can write for you, unless you’re Whitney Houston, that you can sing as your own and sound credible and real. I think people need to get back to writing. Even if someone writes a hit for you, if you don’t know how to deliver the emotion that went into writing it, that’s a failed mission.”

Not many would venture so boldly , however get ready to hear more from the confident new talent...
