We are proud to honor him with this year\u2019s ASCAP Vanguard Award.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Born in Brooklyn, New York, Leon Thomas was raised in a deeply musical household by his mother, a vocal coach, and his stepfather, who played guitar for B.B. King. He began his career on Broadway\u2019s The Lion King before venturing into television, where he rose to prominence with his breakout role on Nickelodeon\u2019s fan-favorite tween sitcom, Victorious. Following the show\u2019s end in 2013, Thomas transitioned seamlessly from screen to music, writing and producing for major artists including Ariana Grande, Drake, Chris Brown and Kehlani.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">After establishing himself as one of the industry\u2019s most sought-after creatives, Thomas stepped into the spotlight with his own <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/rapindustry.com\/leon-thomas-mutt-deluxe-heel-album\/\"><strong>sophomore album Mutt<\/strong><\/a><\/span> (2024).

Mutt would solidify his arrival as a leading voice in modern R&amp;B, earning multiple accolades including two Grammy Awards for Best R&amp;B Album and Best Traditional R&amp;B Performance, and an iHeartRadio Music Award for Best New R&amp;B Artist. With his newly released EP PHOLKS and a tour with Bruno Mars in select markets for his \u201cThe Romantic Tour,\u201d Leon Thomas is poised to make a lasting imprint on the
