He instantly knew that she was a star and would one day be a huge success in the music business. Stokes met the young songstress when she was only 5 years old. It was during this time that Stokes discovered and began working with Jhene Aiko. In the 00's Stokes also founded the hit boy group B2K. Her first single under Motown 'Smoke, Drink, Break-Up' was released in February 2014 and immediately began climbing the R&B Chart. In 2013, Mila J was the talk of every major label in town, but decided to re-sign to Motown. The mix tape exploded obtaining over 600,000 downloads, causing a stir within industry insiders who then took note. In late 2012, Mila J went into the studio and put out a mix tape of 5 songs.

However, due to creative differences, the album was not released.

In 2006, Mila J was signed as a solo act at Motown under the direction of music mogul Sylvia Rhone to work on what was set to be her first solo album, Split Personality. Gyrl disbanded and Mila J went on to be in another Stokes created girl group called Dame Four. Later signed by Stokes, Mila J and her two group members landed a deal with the MCA label in 1995 under the name Gyrl. While working with Immature, Stokes was introduced to singer, rapper and dancer Mila J. As his career furthered, Stokes went on to discover the 90's Boy Group sensation Immature. He knew he had a great eye for new talent when he landed his first record deal with a group he was managing called 'Next Issue.' That situation didn't work out, but it gave Stokes the experience and determination to make his stamp in the music industry as a force to be reckoned with. Stokes later realized that his passion was in the management field.

His mother Irene 'Mama Stokes' was an actress/comedienne, which gave Stokes his early interest in the entertainment industry. Stokes began his career in music at the young age of 12, singing in different groups and talent shows. Known for his ingenuity behind chart-topping success stories such as multi-platinum selling groups 'B2K' and 'Immature' and solo artists 'Omarion' (former lead singer of 'B2K') and Marques 'MH' Houston (former lead singer of 'Immature'/'IMX'), Stokes continues his meteoric rise in the music. A Los Angeles native, Stokes has been immersed in the music business since the age of seventeen. Stokes has made a name for himself in the music industry with the discovery of such stars as Brandy, Immature, B2K, Jhene Aiko, Sevyn Streeter, Mila J, Kevin McHale (Glee), Omarion & Marques Houston.
