Robert's Story
Life
Hey What's up people? I've been trying to do this for the longest...but better late than never. I am in Los Angeles! Yup, Cali baby! It's OFF THE HINGES!!! It's God's country for real! I have been here since July 1990 and it has been an amazing journey to say the least. After high school I went straight to work for the city. the Court of Common Pleas. That was my first J.O.B. which I worked from the 11th grade! I only went to school 8-12 the last 2 years. Most of you may remember that I sing, dance and act. Well I am still in the game. After high school I traveled alot with my band called "A Different Class" and a band call "JUSTICE", it was the bomb! We packed clubs out all over the east coast! I was also doing Dinner Theater around town. In 1987 I began my solo venture and played the World Famous Appollo Theater in Harlem and won! That was my signal to push full steam ahead. My manager at the time brought my to LA for the first time in 1987-88 to record a demo and shop for a record deal but it was not time. So I came back to Philly kickin and screamin because I knew that I belonged in LA. As divine timing would have it in 1990 I took off! Headed West and the rest is history. God has well established me here I am building a wonderful career that I could not have planned if I tried...Though I have traveled the world doing plays, tours etc...In the midst of all of that I have become A Real Estate Broker! YES, I OWN MY OWN COMPANY!!! I'm tellin you I couldn't have planned this journey if I tried. My company name is R.M.Gee & Associates. I've been in the Real Estate/Mortgage business since 1992! God is Good! Because of the Real Estate I have a totally different approach to the Business of "Entertainmen...Expand for more
t" and I'm grateful because it's so scandless...Knowledge is powerful when used...For the first time I am Producing myself!!!! My first time exposing my writing and producing skills!!! If Ray Charles could fight for his masters blind....Why are we asleep... Well I'm wide awake and I've got to own mine at this stage of the game...It comes with great sacrifice and labor but when you were born to do it you cannot rest until your work is done...Did you guys see me in Luthers video "The Power of Love" ? That was my first job in the "BIZ" when I got here. Many jobs and moons later Did you guys see me in "The Little Richard Story."? After working with Robert Townsend doing the LIVE musical version of The Five Heartbeats he called me in for the role of "Bossman"! I toured this year with a play called "A Bird In Flight" and when I got back to LA I was cast in a play called "Body Language" which featured the music of our Philly Queen, Ms. Patti LaBelle! I was nominated for an NAACP award for my role as "Holt", BANANAS! Did you see ya boy on the BET Comedy awards? I'm in the opening skit with crazy azz Steve Harvey.I will shout out and let the King" fam know what's crackin...I have millions of stories and things to tell but I'm saving them for the book...Stay tuned. My website is up, it's RobertGee.com of course. It will be updated soon. But CD is titled All My Love" and is available on iTunes and cdbaby.com! The CD is also carried at The Sound Of Market Street! In 2010 I won the BEST R&B MALE VOCAL PERFORMANCE from the BLACK MUSIC ASSOCIATION B.M.A. I have a beautiful life here in Los Angeles and I am blessed! Big Ups to EVERYBODY for stopping by this page and all the FB fam...
Peace & Blessings,
