Rob Vegas - Boys Don't Cry

Rob Vegas - Boys Don't Cry

Rob Vegas is a passionate singer, songwriter and producer, emerging onto the scene with impeccable talent and charisma. Rob has been an entertainer since he was 5 and has worked professionally in the entertainment industry to this day. He has developed a vocal style reminiscent of Terrence Trent D'arby, Prince and Justin Timberlake.

Rob is a very experienced vocalist with similar vocal nuances to Stevie Wonder.

His production sound is an electric fusion of RnB, Pop, Soul & Hiphop or more commonly known as "Urban". He describes his music as a cutting edge combination of a strong rhythm section with unique and distinctive synthetic arrangements.

As a NZ Idol top ten finalist Rob was able to use this as a platform for his music and networks.

He has worked with Chad Beatz (Grammy nominated producer) who gave him his title "Rob Vegas" as he could see the ambition Rob had to make it in the entertainment industry. Predominantly he has work with Moonlight Sounds label owner Shae Sterling (Maisey Rika). Four debut single releases in NZ titled "Bubblegum" (coupled with a successful remix by Mikael Wills charting no.1 on Bop FM and playing in London clubs), "Lemme Sip" released in May 2011 produced by Multi platinum producer Hardley davidson (Nelly, Chamillionaire, Akon) " A song for Yue Yue falling" a tribute song he produced himself for a girl in china whom was hit by two trucks and left for dead and his latest self produced track "Boys don't cry" which is gaining growing momentum in NZ having entered the iTunes Charts at #70. He has also worked with 10Aciouss (Scribe, King Kapisi) on a rendition of a Drake song entitled "Robins Room".
