He is making history with his hair-raising remake of the most iconic song in the history of African-American culture, The Negro National Anthem, "Lift Every Voice and Sing."

Harvey was born in the Bronx of New York City. His parents recognized his joy for music early and purchased his first drum set when he was just 2 years old to keep him from banging on their pots and pans. At age 4, Harvey and his cousins would sing and dance at family gatherings to the sounds of Motown and Stay Records. By then, it was clear to Harvey's family that he was destined to become an entertainer.

He grew up in a household with God-fearing grandparents and attended the St. Luke A.M.E. Church in Harlem. When he was 8 years old he began singing in the children's choir under the caring directorship if Yvonne Clark. By age 12, Harvey had recorded his first commercial for American Airlines under the tutelage of musical director Leon Tubman, also of St. Luke A.M.E. Church. The years to follow have proven to be a constant progression and refinement of his talent.
