Episode 141. Ashley Scott is a talented vocalist from Philadelphia, PA who released his first album, "Love You For All Time," in July 2025 on Expansion Records. Known for international radio-charting singles like the 2022 release "Together," the groovy "Dance The Night Away" (2020), and his international anthem "Don’t Throw Our Love Away" (2021), Ashley is making his place in the R&B, jazz and dance genres.
He began singing and discovering music at the tender age of 3 from listening and watching his aunt, Helen Scott of The Three Degrees and Delfonics. Ashley continues to release music across the soul, jazz, and dance genres globally.
The biggest part of Ashley’s life and musical path came when he attended Howard University, where he received his Bachelor’s Degree in Music. At Howard University, Ashley studied jazz voice under legendary jazz drummer and vocalist Grady Tate, Kehembe Eichelberger, and the late Webster Lewis. Ashley also joined the Howard University Gospel Choir, which produced R&B artist Angela Winbush, Tawatha Agee of Mtume, Pure Soul, and gospel great Richard Smallwood. During his tenure with the Howard Gospel Choir, Ashley has performed behind Edwin and Walter Hawkins, and Dorinda Clark of The Clark Sisters. The choir was also privileged to perform for President Bill Clinton at The Department of Agriculture for the unveiling portrait of former Secretary of Agriculture Mike Espy.
Professionally, he has sung background for Lady Alma and Jean Carn as well as shared the stage with Bilal, Marcus Johnson and Grammy Award winners Take 6. In the studio, he has recorded vocals for Chavous, Sarah's Girl, Geneva Renee, Tye Tribbett, Jim Stephens, and Will Downing.
In other musical attributes, Ashley has served as a Board Member and Vice President of The Recording Academy Philadelphia Chapter. Ashley is the founder of The Soulful Sounds Series that is an R&B educational program. He co-founded a non-profit, The Artists United, with his partner Lox Knox, that educates youth in the entertainment industry through its I.C.A.R.E Academy program. In his personal life, he is a man who gives back to the community.
In this episode, host Troy Saunders and Ashley celebrate the release of Ashley's first full-length album, "Love You For All Time". From the first song to the last they discuss the inspiration for each of the eight songs in this wonderful compilation of music. Funny enough, Ashley expresses how he gets ideas from conversations held in his neighborhood barbershop. Troy jokes how that couldn't be one of his inspirations since he is bald and hasn't been in a barber's chair in over 20 years!
Ashley also highlights the list of exemplary musicians and writers that he has had the pleasure to work with on this labor of love. They include, but not limited to, Frank McComb, Eric Roberson, Najee, and Will Brock. With a line-up like this, how can you go wrong. Some of the highlights include "Always," Forgive and Forget," "Questions," "Not Now," "Looking Up To You," and the title track. Might as well say the whole album. Listen to this episode and decide for yourself.
