R. City are Theron and Timothy Thomas - St. Thomas-born brothers who have produced and written some of the most popular songs in recent memory including multiplatinum, chart-dominating hits like Rihanna’s “Pour It Up,” Nicki Minaj’s “The Night Is Still Young,” and Miley Cyrus’ “We Can’t Stop.” R. City has also contributed to numerous Grammy Award winning and nominated albums including Rihanna's Unapologetic (won Best Urban Contemporary Album), Jennifer Hudson's self-titled album (won Best R&B Album) and Ariana Grande's My Everything (nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album).

Veteran hitmakers in the studio for years, the duo is now poised to make their mark as chart-topping artists. On their major label debut album, the brothers collaborated with Dr. Luke on an album true to their roots and their own voice. “It’s our own genre,” asserts Theron. “We call it Caribbean hip-hop. There are elements of rap and the islands. This is the first time most people will really hear us, so we wanted to come out with something big.”
