Recently selected by Forbes for the Culture, Amillion has ascended to the role of CEO of 1NA Record Label, 1NA Radio Show, and 1NA Alkaline Water. His remarkable career has been spotlighted on major networks such as ABC, BET, MTV, Vh1, and iHeart, showcasing his diverse artistic abilities and unyielding drive.
Amillion’s musical journey has led him to headline tours across the globe, including destinations such as the United Kingdom, Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, Amsterdam, Canada, the Virgin Islands, and various locations throughout the United States. His international acclaim is paralleled by his dedication to inspiring and uplifting his local community through his movement, 1NA—One In A Million. This movement encompasses his music projects, poetry books, health beverage, and community activism, all unified by a mission to inspire millions to become unique individuals rather than mere statistics.
The 1NA brand has forged significant partnerships with prestigious entities such as Lamborghini, iHeart Radio, WDRB Media, Move On Voting Campaign, Fox News, DTLR Stores throughout the United States, and Zara Fashion Retailers internationally. Amillion’s influence extends beyond entertainment, as evidenced by his successful tours to schools, prisons, churches, and shelters.

Over the past decade, 1NA Workshops have been featured in more than 50 school districts, public libraries, juvenile facilities, and adult prisons.
Recently, Amillion’s 1NA Alkaline Water Cover made history by becoming the first Black-owned Alkaline Water Company in grocery stores such as ALDI.

In addition, 1NA Radio Show has now garnered over 400,000 total listeners. 1NA Record Label has signed R&B sensation Kason Miller and is set to go on tour in 2024.
In addition to his artistic and community efforts, Amillion has established the Amillion The Poet Scholarship Fund and the 1NA Foundation, which have collectively awarded $5,000 to high school and college students since 2017. His entrepreneurial spirit led to the creation of the 1NA Alkaline Water Company in 2021, further promoting physical wellness alongside mental health.
Amillion’s accolades are numerous and prestigious. He received an ASCAP nomination and contributed to the score of the #1 movie in the country, “The Equalizer 2,” starring Denzel Washington.
