Torion

Torion (Sellers) is a hip-hop / R&B recording artist from Atlanta, GA. He began singing, dancing and acting on his own at only 9 years old. His influences included artists such as Chris Brown and Usher. After winning a few talent shows, his family supported him to continue down this road so that he could further cultivate his talents.

His abilities soon gained the attention of artist and VP of Young Money Cash Money Records, Mack Maine, who along with Lil Wayne signed the 14-year-old artist to his first record deal. Weezy and Mack unveiled their latest signing in the video titled “public service announcement number 2,” in which they dubbed Torion “the future.”[1][2][3][4][5][6]Torion’s rise to success continued as he was given the honor of becoming a brand ambassador for Hype Magazine.[7][8][9]

After an amicable split with YMCMB, Torion was quickly swooped up by Sony music. Torion’s newest single, “Twerk Don’t Hurt” ft. Cash Out was released on November 17, 2014 via Sony Music.[10]
