2025 has already been a whirlwind for the R&B crooner. He graced the stage at Prada’s exclusive pre-Met Gala event, performing for a star-studded crowd including Tracee Ellis Ross and Hunter Schafer. He’s also nabbed a BET Award nomination and recently joined forces with Teddy Swims on the track ‘Are You Even Real’.
This year also marks the five-year anniversary of his breakout 'TAKE TIME' EP, which featured his global smash hit 'Heartbreak Anniversary'. With 'BELOVED' on the horizon, it’s clear GIVĒON is ready to reclaim his spot at the forefront of R&B.
