Very few artists can lay claim to being a natural-born talent. Mishon is one of those talented few. With confidence, presence and vocal dexterity that belie his age, this multi-talented 21-year-old phenomenon is the real deal. Mishon has already made a name for himself as an actor. He recently wrapped the fourth and final season of the popular ABC Family drama, “Lincoln Heights,” playing spunky kid brother Tay Sutton. But the one thing he never lost sight of was achieving his lifelong dream: to sing. Now that dream is coming true with the release of “The Yearbook,” Mishon’s debut album on Dynasty/Streamline/Interscope. “He sings with meaning beyond his years,” says Vincent Herbert, president of Streamline Records (Lady Gaga), who first met Mishon when he was 12 years old. “Between the universal appeal of his voice and his dancing ability, he’s a special talent.” Setting the pace for the forthcoming album is lead single “Turn It Up” featuring fellow hot newcomer and labelmate Roscoe Dash. Available May 4 on iTunes, the percolating pop/R&B/hip-hop infused dance track provides the perfect backdrop for Mishon’s fresh, engaging tenor—and fittingly delivers on the ear-arresting promise of his earlier singles, “Excuse Me Mama” and “Just a Kiss.” The new single also showcases another aspect of Mishon’s many talents: he co-wrote and co-produced “Turn It Up,” on which he infectiously proclaims, “The party don’t start ’til I walk in.”
