Hailing from Chicago, Praxton’s musical journey began at just 3 years old under the guidance of his father—a gifted musician and songwriter who quickly recognized his son’s extraordinary talent. Determined to keep him on a positive path, his father kept him grounded in music, starting with church performances, local talent shows, and consistent mentorship that helped shape both his character and craft.
At 15, Praxton’s life took a pivotal turn when he connected with powerhouse producers Trillionaire Kyle and Marquis. They immediately saw his potential and began helping him develop his artistry. During this time, he faced one of the toughest transitions for a young male vocalist—the natural shift in vocal range. But instead of stepping back, Praxton pushed forward. He kept recording, training, dominating in track, and maintaining honor roll status in school. At 16, he was introduced to industry legend Maurice White of GMG1 Music Group, who immediately saw something special in him. That moment marked another leap forward in Praxton’s professional journey. Now 17, Praxton’s voice has matured into something truly rare—silky smooth, emotionally rich, and powerfully controlled.
Musically, Praxton is influenced by legends like Chris Brown, Michael Jackson, and Whitney Houston, while staying rooted in gospel—a genre that remains close to his heart. In fact, he’s committed to including one gospel record on every project as a tribute to his faith and the God-given gift that started it all.
His upcoming single, “I Like the Way (The Kissing Game)” is his rendition of Hi-Five’s hit written by the legendary Teddy Riley and produced by The Trillionaires and Jamal Smallz. The single is poised to be a major breakout moment, blending classic R&B vibes with modern soul.
Praxton’s rising star power has already led him to tour with Nickelodeon’s That Girl Lay Lay, share stages with artists like Mary J. Blige and 300’s WanMor, and perform at events like the Peace in the Streets tour (Gary, IN and Chicago). He’s also gained support from GTI Radio and made waves during the Chris Brown Meet & Greet experience. With over 1.6 million streams, 30K+ Instagram followers, and 52K+ TikTok fans, Praxton is on fire—and he’s just getting started. Fresh off recording 15 new songs to critical acclaim, he’s proving he’s not just chasing trends—he’s building a legacy.
