Michael Stokes is a contemporary R&B singer and songwriter whose recordings range from plush slow jams to melodic, uptempo tracks suited for club play. Originally from Benton Harbor, Michigan and based in Orlando, Florida, Stokes has been active since the late 2000s with singles released with support from Blok Movaz Entertainment, Almighty Nation, Honorable Court, and CMS Management. Following early-2010s singles such as "O.D." and "Come Over," Stokes gained more traction on U.S. radio in late 2015 with "Dancin' on the Wall." A handful of additional singles arrived during 2016 and 2017, including "Lay Back Down," "Children of the Night," "Casanova," and "Angel." ~ Andy Kellman
