Welcome Lorenzo To The NTUNED Mix-Up

LORENZO was born in Los Angeles, California, but raised in Havana, Florida, a small town outside of Tallahassee, Florida. As a child, he sang in the churches and was an avid listener of Luther Vandross, Peabo Bryson, Michael Jackson, El Debarge, James Brown and Sam Cooke - just to name a few. In high school, Lorenzo was active and competed in sports, making him one of the top cornerbacks in the state of Florida.

In 1990, Lorenzo put out his first album, Let Me Show You. The album was released with Alpha International through CEMA Records. The album's title track reached #64 on the R&B charts, while the album's other single "Tic Tok" reached #41.

While in Philadelphia working on his first album, Lorenzo had the privilege of working with great "behind the scene" legends such as Joe Tarsia (legendary recording engineer), Mike Tarsia (son of Joe Tarsia-awesome engineer), Joe Jefferson (he wrote "Sadie", "Brandy", "Mighty Love", "Love Don't Love Nobody"...just to name a few), the late John Whitehead (half of McFadden & Whitehead - he wrote "Backstabbers", "Ain't No Stopping Us Now"), Mike Forte (he signed Lorenzo....produced "Gotta Get You Home With Me Tonight" and "Don't Say No Tonight" by Eugene Wilde...he also produced and co-wrote "Dreaming" by Vanessa Williams), Bruce Weeden
