Get Well, Blanco Brown!
• Music fans around the world are keeping positive thoughts for songwriter, producer and BBR recording artist Blanco Brown, best known for his impossibly catchy hit, “The Git Up,” who remains in intensive care in an Atlanta hospital after his motorcycle reportedly collided head-on with a pickup truck late Monday evening. Police say the 35-year old Brown was wearing a helmet.
Brown’s label, BBR Music Group yesterday released this statement, which reads, “BBR Music Group’s beloved Blanco Brown, the artist behind 2019’s worldwide viral smash “The Git Up” and current hit “Just The Way” was involved in a head-on collision Monday night near his home in Atlanta, GA. The accomplished writer, vocalist and Grammy-nominated producer suffered significant injuries and was transported to a local hospital where he underwent a 12-hour surgery to address those traumas. Additional surgeries are expected as he currently rests in the ICU. Blanco, his family and his friends ask for your prayers during this time.
BBR Music Group/BMG asks that any inquires be directed to the label out of respect for Blanco and his family’s privacy during this difficult time.” For inquiries, please contact BBR’s Jay Jones at jay@bbrmusicgroup.com. [Photo courtesy of BBR Music Group]
