At the tender age of six, family functions and small gatherings became the first platforms Romonta knew of. He passionately bellowed out what he believed to be musical bliss at the time. Cheering him on was his audience of encouraging family members and friends who supported his endeavors and instilled in him a strong work ethic and positive attitude. As Romonta matured and his voice developed, his true capacity as a performer was in progress.
The History
Romonta first began his professional singing career with the formation of a gospel group while in High School. He toured the East coast with the group and further developed his skills as an entertainer. After performing within the local circuit, Romonta moved to New York City to pursue his dreams and earned a chance to compete with other artists in the world famous Apollo Theater. He also was a repeat performer on B.E.T.’s 106 & Park. From that experience, Romonta was presented the opportunity to be signed with an R&B group through Universal Records. After two years of recording and performing, the group parted ways due to management issues, but that didn't hold Romonta back. The actual experience of being apart of the professional recording industry, yet again fueled Romonta to push his independence as an artist and entrepreneur, building his name, credibility and brand. Through established industry relationships, Romonta has since been lead the opportunity to tour four (4) times overseas with such acts as BLACK STREET and JAGGED EDGE.
