Brandon HInes


'I would go to the edge of the earth tryna get to you baby.'

He hella cute. :)

SO! I don't know how long this artist has been around but one night I was on Barrel House BKLYN and i heard his song 'Find U' and i fell in love with it :) ['Screaming Out' is also a good song too! Look into all his music]

From his website  I learned he went to Howard University & as I skimmed through his bio I peeped that he has worked with Ryan Leslie, Jermaine Dupri, Trey Songz, Mario Wynans and many more. [he out there making a good name for himself].

After all, “Experience is Everything.” '
