Born and raised in Philadelphia, PA, KA’RON—born Karon White—began his musical journey as a key member of the R&B group M.T.B (Meant To Be). The group made a splash with their debut single “Do Your Thing,” which received widespread attention after premiering on BET Jams and hitting airwaves on Boom 103.9 and Power 99. This early success led to a distribution deal with Twenty Two Recordings and set the stage for their evolving career.

The group’s momentum only grew as they rebranded to Project 2ONE5 under the guidance of music mogul L.A. Reid at Hitco. Named in tribute to their Philly roots, the group built a reputation for delivering powerhouse performances and collaborating with industry heavyweights like Hitmaka, The Dream, Roddy Ricch, and VEDO. Their creative approach earned the attention of major artists like Kanye West, Teyana Taylor, and Cardi B, who took note of their viral covers of Teyana’s “Issues / Hold On” and Cardi & Bruno Mars’ “Please Me”—both racking up over 7 million views each.

With hits like “Sexaholix,” Project 2ONE5 established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the R&B world, performing alongside some of the genre’s biggest stars, including Trey Songz, Megan Thee Stallion, and Tank. Their appearance at the BET Experience and the BET Awards signaled that they were just getting started.

Now, KA’RON is ready to take center stage as a solo artist. “If You Nasty” showcases his growth and artistic evolution, blending the smoothness of his R&B roots with a fresh, contemporary edge.
