The Global Hip Hop & R&B Artist Redefining Independent Success
In a music industry often defined by fleeting trends, Brent Winter, known professionally as B.WINA, is building something much more permanent.
With a mantra that declares,
is a multi-continental force whose music bridges the gap between soulful storytelling and high-tier technical production.
Based now in Toronto, B.WINA brings a “fusion of cultures” to the Canadian scene, blending his Caribbean roots with the urban textures of Miami, the technical precision of Los Angeles, and the rhythmic soul of Brazil.
A Journey Without Borders
B.WINA’s path to becoming a “World Music” visionary began in St. Croix and traveled through Antigua, the United States, and South America.
His artistry is backed by a solid academic foundation from the SAE Institute in Los Angeles, where he mastered audio engineering and music production.
This technical expertise is what sets him apart. He isn’t just an artist behind the mic; he is the architect of the sound. His time in Brazil, mentored by the legendary DJ Nazz (Carlos Machado), refined a sound identity that is as magnetic as it is authentic.
Global Acclaim and 159 Million Eyes
The numbers behind B.WINA’s career are staggering for an independent artist. His debut single, “The Way,” achieved a potential global media reach of over 159 million viewers through organic PR and international news pickups across the US, India, Indonesia, and Canada.
From performing at Youth Day Toronto before 40,000 people to ranking #15 on ReverbNation in Los Angeles, B.WINA has proven that music with a message—centered on youth empowerment and family values—can resonate on a massive scale without the backing of a major label.
“Rising Up”: The Newest Chapter
His latest release, “Rising Up” (released October 31, 2025), is already garnering high praise from industry leaders. Wanda Ryan, CEO of DOC Entertainment, describes the track as having a “vibrant hip-hop pulse and soulful flair,” calling it a standout that truly delivers.
