Hi My name is Darius Barnes

My passion for singing, started at an early age and as a teen I had the opportunity to perform as a singer in weddings and auditioned to become a tenor finalist for the Stellar Music Awards Youth choir in Houston, Tx 2006 where Gene Moore Gospel recording artist was one of the judges along with Eric Carrington. As a finalist, I traveled to perform before many known artists in the Gospel music industry in Nashville, Tn.

After graduating high school, I attended Tyler Junior College before transferring to Prairie View A&M University where I obtained my Bachelor of Arts degree in Music in 2014 with a concentration in voice.

While attending Prairie View A&M, I was under the choral direction of Dr. Jan Taylor. My vocal training was taught by Mr. Leon Turner baritone. My teachings in music theory, Music Lit and sight reading were by composer Dr. John Cornelius. Through my hard work in music as an undergrad, I was given opportunity by Dr. Cornelius to become a staff singer at Kingwood First Presbyterian under music choir director Dr. Todd Miller.

After graduating in 2014 from Prairie View A&M, I started releasing original songs I wrote and some that I produced as a gospel recording artist from 2014-2020. Along with performing, I did features for local artists in the Houston area on their albums. After that time, I went to music production and in 2023 I received my first placement as a producer. That song was called Old Ways by Mr Ad the problem solver ft myself lucky luciano & gifted the flamethrowa on all platforms. It was released as the music video also on street flava tv a local music tv show based out of Houston, Tx.
