This week on The R&B Money Podcast, Tank and J Valentine welcome the iconic songwriter Johntá Austin to wax introspective.

Taking it back to the beginning, Johntá reminisces about his first brushes with fame, from singing in church to starring in TV shows as a child. He recalls the fateful night as a teen where his life changed forever after an appearance on a legendary late night show.

Detailing his journey through the music industry, Johntá outlines his early collaborations with some of R&B’s greatest visionaries and the process of transitioning into a full-time hitmaking songwriter. He and Tank connect over the struggle all artists face, even at the height of success.

Johntá pulls back the curtain on creating timeless love songs like “Be Without You” and “We Belong Together,” analyzing what made 2005 his career-defining year. He explains how he helped discover and develop a future superstar’s iconic debut album.

At its heart, this episode is a vulnerable and real discussion about the ups and downs of the creative journey between two icons and a trailblazer who helped shape 21st century R&B music as we know it. There's no better authority than these three legends together in one room.
