Bigg Robb – Southern Soul’s Funky Gentleman

🎙️ Artist Spotlight: Bigg Robb – Southern Soul’s Funky Gentleman Bigg Robb is a name that lights up our playlists—and for good reason. He’s one of the most unique voices in Southern Soul and modern blues, bringing together funk, soul, and pure feel-good vibes in every track. 🎧 Who Is Bigg Robb? Born and raised in Dayton, Ohio, Bigg Robb’s musical roots go deep. He started off behind the scenes in the legendary funk group Zapp, working with none other than Roger Troutman. That influence is all over his sound—talkbox effects, funky basslines, and that unmistakable Midwest-meets-Deep South flavor. He eventually stepped into the spotlight as a solo artist and quickly became a fan favorite on the Chitlin’ Circuit and Southern Soul charts. He’s been grinding ever since, dropping albums, collaborating with artists across the genre, and bringing the party to stages across the country. 🎤 Why We Love Spinning Bigg Robb Bigg Robb doesn’t just make songs—he makes moments. Tracks like: “Good Lovin’ Will Make You Cry” – A Southern Soul anthem with real emotion and bluesy swagger. “The Bigg Girlz” – A celebration of curvy women that always gets a reaction. “Looking for a Country Girl” – A classic Robb blend of humor and honesty. “Black Woman” – A heartfelt tribute that’s both powerful and smooth. His music connects because it’s real, it’s fun, and it feels good. Whether he’s making you laugh, nod your head, or reflect a little, there’s no mistaking a Bigg Robb record. 🎶 For the DJs & Southern Soul Lovers If you program Southern Soul, blues, or old-school R&B, Bigg Robb is essential rotation. He bridges generations—your younger listeners love the funk, your older crowd loves the message. And live? He turns any show into a party. From hole-in-the-wall juke joints to blues festivals, he knows how to work a crowd. Want to spice up your weekend mix? Drop in “I’m Ready to Party” or “Good Good”—just be ready for the phones to light up. 📻 Final Word Bigg Robb is proof that real music with soul, groove, and a little grit still matters. He’s a reminder of the power of Southern Soul to tell stories, bring people together, and keep the party going—even after the cookout ends. So the next time you hear that voice come across your speakers, do yourself a favor—turn it up.
