TheNuMiami is a dynamic independent record label based in Miami, Florida, with a dedicated focus on R&B music. Since our inception on April 2, 2014, we have transitioned from a media blog into a full-fledged music and entertainment company. Our mission is to nurture and elevate exceptional R&B talent while making a significant impact on the global music scene.

Our Mission

At TheNuMiami, our mission is to discover and support outstanding R&B artists by providing them with the essential tools, resources, and opportunities they need to thrive. We are committed to fostering artistic growth and innovation, aiming to make a lasting impact on the global music landscape.

Our Vision

We envision a world where R&B music not only leads but also profoundly influences global culture. Our goal is to empower the next generation of artists through creativity, innovation, and excellence, setting new standards and leaving a lasting legacy that resonates through generations.

Our Journey

Founding and Evolution

Founded by Akeem Brownlee, TheNuMiami began as a blog focused on South Florida’s vibrant music scene. Recognizing the potential to revitalize R&B in a region dominated by punk-rap and hip-hop, Brownlee rebranded the blog into a record label. With a passion for ’90s R&B and self-taught audio engineering skills, Brownlee set out to provide a platform for R&B artists and reshape the genre’s presence in the region.

Milestones and Achievements

In 2016, TheNuMiami made a significant breakthrough by signing Savannah Cristina, who was discovered through a Twitter video. Her success led to a signing with Warner Records in 2020, which allowed us to focus entirely on our label’s growth. That year, we also entered into a partnership with Vydia to enhance our digital distribution capabilities.

Our collaboration with Twelve’Len, a childhood friend of Brownlee, contributed creatively to our projects. In 2019, we signed ZYA, a promising R&B artist introduced by Twelve’Len. Additionally, in 2021, we signed Gen Bello, whose debut EP Geneses has been a notable addition to our roster.

Recent Developments

To support our expanding operations, we established a warehouse space and SoundWAV Recording Studios in 2019. This development reflects our commitment to providing state-of-the-art facilities for our artists and projects.
