Anthony Cornelius Hamilton, born on January 28, 1971, in Charlotte, North Carolina, began his musical journey singing in his church choir at the age of 17. After attending South Mecklenburg High School, where he participated in an award-winning choir, he moved to New York City in 1992 to pursue a career in music. He initially signed with Andre Harrell’s Uptown Records, an imprint of MCA Records, and recorded his debut studio album, “XTC,” intended for release in 1996. However, the album was ultimately shelved due to its singles not charting commercially.
Hamilton gained significant mainstream recognition through his guest performance on Nappy Roots’ 2002 single “Po’ Folks,” which reached number 21 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earned a Grammy Award nomination for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration in 2003. This success led him to sign with Jermaine Dupri’s So So Def Recordings, under Arista Records. His second studio album, “Comin’ from Where I’m From” (2003), achieved platinum certification from the RIAA and received four Grammy Award nominations, featuring the hit single “Charlene,” which peaked at number 19 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Throughout his career, Hamilton has released several successful albums, including “Ain’t Nobody Worryin'” (2005) and “The Point of It All” (2008), both of which earned gold certifications and charted within the top 20 of the Billboard 200. He moved to RCA Records for “Back to Love” (2011) and “What I’m Feelin'” (2016). A Grammy Award winner with 12 nominations, Hamilton is also known for co-writing and performing “Freedom” with Elayna Boynton for the soundtrack of the 2012 film “Django Unchained.” His career is marked by collaborations with various artists across genres, solidifying his status as a respected figure in contemporary R&B.
