Recently, Styles has been nominated as, Artist Of The Month by Urban Media TV, and is a nominee at this year’s 2012 UMA’s (Underground Music Awards) for Most Original Male Artist. A. Styles definitely has a promising future in the music industry. Coming off his latest project Star In The Makiing, the 22 year old emcee has been making some noise and generating a buzz in the tri-state area with his singles such as, “Blackhole” and “MOE” both produced by local Producer, Colin McCabe. Colin both produced and engineered all of Star In The Making.
