August Alsina

NOLA’s August Alsina is a young R&B singer that could be poised for big things: His debut, Testimony, came out on the esteemed Def Jam earlier this year, and his name was among those included in XXL’s annual “freshman class” list of hot up-and-comers. Usher also sees promise in the crooner: He secured Alsina as the opener for his upcoming stadium tour.
