Indie artist Nhojj made OUTMusic Awards history when he became the first black male to win an OMA. The Alliance of LGBT Recording Artists & Performers voted his ballad 
Love 2009 OUTStanding R&B/Soul song of the year.
“Nhojj has been delivering high-quality jazzy soul for nearly a decade. A soul pioneer, Nhojj is one of a growing number of “out” Black gay performers releasing both universal and same-sex material…. Soul Sessions congratulates soul singer Nhojj for being a Black history and a gay history first!” - BET/Centric TV blogger L. Michael Gipson.
“Love” appears on the Nhojj compilation Love Songs and the 2x Velocity nominated Soul Comfort. It features keyboardist Carl Evans (Stevie Wonder, Barry White); David Stark on Guitar (Rick James & Teena Marie); Tommy Aros on percussion (Luis Miguel); and is mastered by by Robert Honablue, whose Gold and Platinum credits include Santana, Roberta Flack, Aretha Franklin, Bob Marley, and Miles Davis.
The official music video for “Love” was featured at 2010 Sundance Film Festival Queer Lounge, and is on MTV and VH1. Unlike current R&B music videos, it is the sensitive reflection of 2 male college students who feel a mutual attraction toward each other. Director Kirk Shannon-Butts spliced scenes from his highly acclaimed indie film “Blueprint,” which screened at 2008 Cannes International Film Festival, and footage of Nhojj as the angel of love. “I believe love is for everyone… homosexual and heterosexual” Nhojj explains, “One day soon our world will acknowledge this simple truth.”

......Okay. I know people have to hate when they are compared to other artists, but I can't help it on this one. I have to say that your sound is the exact fusion of Raheem DeVaughn and Maxwell. Please....know that that is a killer combo..... ;-) Keep up the good work. Excellent work you have here.
