IFM NATION

Born Cory DeWayne Robinson January 23 1975, This self produced arsenal of talent has been compared to the stylings of great artists’ like Usher, Donell Jones, Ginuwine, Sam Cooke, Terence Trent Darby and Musiq Soul child just to name a few. By the pairing up of urban beats, clever arrangements and smooth but sometimes raspy soulful lyrics, Cory comes with the type of sound that one can only call nothing but absolute genius. Cory first set off to join the ranks of some of the industries tightest urban R&B artist, He was scouted and signed to the Hawaiian based Record label “Homeless Records” from which brought him notable exposure and a number of head nods from labels such as "LaFace Records". With the album “Tell me” Robinson was seen in various performances including his first national televised competition where he was challenged by American Pop and R&B singer songwriter “Neyo” on MTV's prelude to American Idol called the “The Cut” (then hosted by TLC's Lisa "Left eye" Lopez), while also been chosen to open for artist such as Brian McKnight. Cory's first independent project "The Lady disk" gave us just a taste of the vibe Cory Robinson could bring to the industry. With its cool and sometimes seductive way of story telling, the lyrics seem to jump out of the speakers and into your imagination.
