If you like: Justin Timberlake
Check out: Mike Posner
This 20-year-old Duke University senior is among the festival’s most promising newcomers, bridging the divide between radio pop and suburban hip-hop. Originally from Michigan, Posner surfaced as a vocalist when his tracks aired on Detroit radio stations. He has MC skills along with a voice able to deliver R&B riffs. He and his band, the Brain Trust, are working on debut album “The New Deal” for J Records, but Posner’s mix tape “A Matter of Time” is available for download on iTunes. Posner plays a CMJ showcase at SOB’s Thursday at 9 p.m. Listen at: myspace.com/mikeposner.
