JERROD AZAAD

Sensual atmospheres are created when he weaves his dulcet falsettos and power packed vocals reminiscent of the 80s and mid 90s into a song. Jerrod Azaad's discography reminds us of the delicate balance of passion and  struggles of life's love cycle. Up tempo choreography and searing mid-temp ballads are a staple in his performances. For a short period, he toured the east coast with the "Motown Revue" singing and learning the choreography to songs by the Temptations, The Jackson 5, Smokey Robinson and more. Maxwell, Prince, Tevin Campbell, and Usher are inspiration to him. While growing up in North Carolina, He took an interest in R&B groups from the 60s & 70s his father would play on the ride to visit their family in Virginia Beach. Jerrod would write verses to their instrumentals which gave birth to his passion of becoming a song-writer.

Over the past few years, he has won several awards including a Carolina Music Award for R&B Male, R&B Artist of the Year BLOC Award, and Feature Highlight Award for New Artist of the Year. Azaad has opened for Maxwell, Damien Escobar, and Anthony Hamilton at the AOC Festival in Durham, NC as well as performed for the Hampton Roads Expo Extravaganza at the Hampton Convention Center which featured SWV.
