Some artists are born into the spotlight — Dustin Michael was built for it.
From his early days as a member of the chart-topping R&B group B5, Dustin Michael Breeding carved out his place in music history. Discovered and mentored by Sean “Diddy” Combs, B5 took the industry by storm with their hit remake of the Jackson 5’s “All I Do,” earning legions of loyal fans and becoming one of the most recognizable teen groups of the 2000s. Their success under Bad Boy Records saw them release two critically acclaimed albums, solidifying their place in pop and R&B culture.
But Dustin’s story didn’t stop there.
After parting ways with Bad Boy and later signing with the legendary Motown Records, B5 released the viral single Say Yes in 2013 — amassing over 5.5 million views and reminding the world why they captured hearts in the first place.
Eventually, Dustin made the bold move to step out as a solo artist. With a passion for creating music that’s both emotionally raw and sonically progressive, he began crafting a sound that reflects his journey — from fame to growth, from boy band frontman to independent voice. In 2015, his solo debut Pay It Forward gave fans a deeply personal glimpse into his mindset as an evolving artist, balancing love, ambition, and self-discovery.
Now, Dustin continues to push boundaries — unafraid to be vulnerable, experimental, and honest in his music. Whether performing smooth R&B ballads or modern trap-infused tracks, he brings a level of polish, passion, and performance that only comes from years of dedication to the craft.
Beyond the music, Dustin is known for his powerful visuals, global perspective, and genuine connection with fans. A recent music video filmed in Paris not only showcased his artistic eye but also paid tribute to victims of terror attacks — proving his heart is as big as his voice.
Dustin’s visual storytelling is just as powerful as his music. A standout moment came with the release of Kodeine Nights ft. YFN Lucci, filmed in the heart of Paris. The cinematic video not only highlighted his artistic depth but also served as a tribute to the victims of terror attacks in the city.
