Says Posner, “First of all, I’m so grateful for all the blessings and wonderful people in my life who have supported my creative process. I’m beyond excited to share “The Way It Used To Be” with the world. I love releasing music in the summer when the weather is beautiful and people are happy.”
Since the release of Posner’s major label debut ‘31 Minutes To Takeoff’ in August of 2010, he has been in the studio working on his own music as well as producing and writing with artists such as Justin Bieber (“Boyfriend”), Labrinth (“Beneath Your Beautiful”), as well as Big Sean, Wiz Khalifa, Snoop Dogg, 2 Chainz, and Sammy Adams. He has also traveled all over the world promoting his album and his three smash singles, the multi-platinum breakout hit “Cooler Than Me” (recorded in his dorm room), his top 10 follow up “Please Don’t Go” and “Bow Chicka Wow Wow” which featured Lil’ Wayne. Posner has performed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, The Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and many more.
In March of 2009, Posner’s first mixtape ‘A Matter of Time’ (recorded in his dorm room) rose to the #1 position on iTunesU, promptly garnering him the attention of major labels. After signing a deal with RCA Records that summer, Posner returned to Duke University to finish up his course load, all the while beginning work on his debut album, self-releasing his second free mixtape ‘One Foot Out The Door’ through iTunesU and rocking shows every weekend at colleges and festivals across the country. Just a year after ‘A Matter of Time’ reached #1 on iTunesU, his debut album ‘31 Minutes to Takeoff’ reached #1 on iTunes proper. 25 year old Mike Posner hails from Detroit, MI and currently resides in Los Angeles, CA.
