BLACK BEAR • With an album set to drop on Valentine’s Day, rapper Blackbear is expected to make massive waves on the R&B charts in 2019. Born Matthew Tyler Musto, Blackbear left high school in the ninth grade to focus on music. By 17, he’d left home to work on his solo career with Ne-Yo in Atlanta, and in a few short years, went on to collaborate with musicians such as Justin Bieber, G-Eazy, Mike Posner and Machine Gun Kelly. However, despite takeing the industry by storm, Blackbear has dealt with some serious personal struggles along the way. In 2016, he was diagnosed with necrotizing chronic pancreatitis and underwent multiple surgeries. But, despite the threat that this condition put on his life, Blackbear showed no signs of slowing down—releasing two studio albums in 2017. Now he’s ready to share his latest project with the world and, in his own words, describes this album as his “best work to date.”
