Bobby Valentino (or Bobby V.) (born Robert Wilson
on February 27, 1980 in Jackson, Mississippi) is an American R&B singer. He was

University where he majored in Mass Communications, graduating in 2004 with a
Bachelor of Arts degree. He is currently signed with Island Def Jam music
imprint and is a member of Ludacris' Disturbing Tha Peace label. His first
single, 2005's "Slow Down", from his self-titled debut album became a top 10 hit
on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart, receiving a huge amount radio and TV
airplay. In 2005, he also joined other R&B/hip-hop acts including Bow Wow and
Omarion on the Scream 4 Tour. Valentino released a second single from his debut
album titled "Tell Me". Rumour has it that Bobby will shortly have to change his
name, following threats of legal action from the UK violinist of the same name,
whose 25+ year career includes credits with the likes of Bob Dylan, Tom Petty,
Mike Oldfield, Nick Lowe, Billy Bragg and many, many more.
