Starkes
is the self-made voice behind a new wave in soul music — the creator and concierge of
Beggin R&B
Born and raised in the heart of NYC, Starkes carries the city’s grit, romance, and rhythm in every note he sings. His sound is heartfelt, vulnerable, and unapologetically soulful — a modern return to the emotional storytelling that once defined R&B. As the “R&B Concierge,” he creates music for the lovers, the feelers, and anyone craving something real — music that hits deep and stays with you long after the song ends.
A lifelong student of music, Starkes blends classic soul influences with modern textures, creating an intimate atmosphere where listeners feel personally guided through every emotion. His performances are immersive, his lyrics intentional, and his delivery rooted in genuine passion. Whether he’s singing about real love, heartbreak, or self-discovery, the goal is always the same: connection.
But Starkes is more than a singer.
Through his podcast, conversations, and perspective-driven content, he shares insight on creativity, growth, discipline, and life — offering motivation grounded in real experience, not empty talk. This is a space where music, mindset, and meaning intersect.
With Beggin R&B, Starkes isn’t just making songs — he’s building a movement and crafting a signature experience. One rooted in honesty, presence, and emotional depth.
If you believe music should make you feel something —
If you value artistry, perspective, and real connection —
You’re invited to be part of what’s being built.
