EPISODE 131: Philadelphia native Tim Johnson Jr. has established himself as a dynamic singer, songwriter, producer, multi-instrumentalist, and actor. At just 10 years old, Johnson’s talents led him and his family to Las Vegas, where he landed the coveted role of Young Simba in Disney’s The Lion King. His acting career continued to flourish with roles in Everybody Still Hates Chris (Paramount), Saturdays (Disney), Ballers (HBO), Meet the Blacks 2, Fist Fight (Lionsgate), FBI (CBS), and critically acclaimed films such as We Were Meant To (Sundance 2023) and Pens and Pencils (2023 NAACP Image Award nominee). His commercial credits include major brands like Nike, Apple, Verizon, Baskin Robbins, and Sprite. In 2018, Johnson captivated audiences as a semi-finalist on FOX’s The Four: Battle for Stardom, reaching millions worldwide. Since then, he has continued to carve his own path in the music industry, independently releasing singles, EPs, and two albums, all written and produced alongside his father. His signature blend of R&B, pop, and soul resonates deeply with his growing fan base, while his electrifying stage presence brings undeniable energy to every performance. instagram.com/cityboyjr
