Keeyen Martin, a dynamic Charlotte, NC native, has swiftly established himself as a captivating force in R&B, Pop, and Soul music. Recently celebrated as the “Electrifying R&B Prince,” Keeyen’s genre-blending style continues to inspire audiences worldwide, with performances that bridge generations and leave a lasting impact at every show.

Earning the prestigious Michael Jackson Scholarship to Morehouse College, Keeyen achieved his BA in Music and Spanish before going on to complete his Master’s in Entertainment Business from Full Sail University. His academic achievements are matched by an illustrious performance career: Keeyen has shared stages with industry legends including Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Pharrell Williams, John Legend, Monica, Lil Wayne, Fantasia, Jennifer Hudson, Teyana Taylor, Kanye West, Rick Ross, Keyshia Cole, Tweet, Michelle Williams, Mya, Keri Hilson, Raheem Devaughn, Peabo Bryson, KeKe Wyatt, PJ Morton, Common, Lalah Hathaway, and BeBe & CeCe Winans, among others.

Keeyen’s performance résumé spans major music platforms, from sold-out R&B tours and an extensive 25-city international tour across the UK and Europe, to high-profile appearances at The BET Awards, Roots Picnic, Red Bull Music Fest, Vh1 Save the Music, BET Music Matters, Sofar Sounds, Grammy Week events, TV One Trumpet Awards, and many more. His powerful presence has been felt on iconic stages such as the Vatican for Pharrell’s “Grace For The World” Concert and at renowned festivals, television events, and global tours.

Offstage, Keeyen is equally impactful as an educator and mentor. Through his involvement with The Atlanta Music Project and Inspire The Fire, he has guided over 1,000 youth—providing voice lessons, coaching, and artistic training to soloists, ensembles, and choirs of all ages. Most recently, he has begun teaching Artist Development at Morehouse College, Led instruction with The ABSYO Chorus in Antigua and Barbuda, and facilitated instruction and taught arrangements to a 25O voice choir in Rome, Italy. All of these endeavors readily pave the way for the launch of his own artist development agency.

Keeyen’s artistry is marked by chart-topping releases, with singles like “Scared To Love,” “You Should Know,” “Girl I’m on the Way,” and “Paradise” earning spots on the iTunes Top 100 and his debut EP “Neutral” amassing over a million streams.
