How Consistency Helped One HVS Conservatory Artist Reach a Major Milestone
From Scholarship Artist to Republic Records
Every artist dreams of hearing the words:
“You’ve been signed.”
For Tig3r Lewis, that dream has become reality.
Hollywood Vocal Studios Conservatory is incredibly proud to celebrate one of our founding scholarship artists as he officially signed with Republic Records, one of the world’s leading record labels. This milestone follows the release of his single “Too Easy” and his debut EP, Mr. Right Now, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter in his career.
For everyone at HVS Conservatory, this achievement is about far more than a record deal. It reflects years of dedication, artistic growth, and a commitment to becoming the strongest artist possible. Learn more about Scholarship Opportunities.
A Journey Built on Consistency
When Tig3r first joined HVS Conservatory as one of our founding scholarship artists, he brought tremendous talent, curiosity, and determination.
What distinguished him wasn’t simply his voice.
It was his work ethic.
Week after week, he invested in his craft, consistently showing up for lessons with Adreana Gonzalez, performance classes, refining his artistry, strengthening his vocal technique, and embracing every opportunity to grow. That consistency became the foundation for everything that followed.
Artist Development Beyond the Voice
At HVS Conservatory, we believe great careers are built on more than vocal ability alone.
Today’s artists must also develop:
- Artistic identity
- Live performance skills
- Professional work habits
- Creative confidence
- Emotional storytelling
- Long-term career vision
- Branding Competence
Throughout his training, Tig3r embraced every aspect of that journey.
He performed in our showcases, refined his original music, accepted feedback with humility, and continued pushing himself as both a vocalist and songwriter.
Those experiences helped prepare him for the opportunities that followed.
Signing with Republic Records
Republic Records has launched and developed some of today’s biggest recording artists.
Joining its roster represents a major milestone for any emerging musician.
Earlier this year, Tig3r officially signed with Republic Records while releasing new music that introduced audiences to his distinctive blend of soul, R&B, blues, and guitar-driven songwriting. His debut EP, Mr. Right Now, continues to build momentum as he performs for audiences across the country.
Watching one of our scholarship artists reach this level is incredibly rewarding—not simply because of the achievement itself, but because we witnessed the work behind it.
Success Doesn’t Happen Overnight
People often see the announcement.
They rarely see the years that came before it.
Behind every record deal are countless hours spent practicing, writing, performing, learning, and growing. Tig3r’s journey reminds us that sustainable success is built through consistency, resilience, and a willingness to keep improving.
Talent may open the door. Dedication is what keeps it open.
Inspiring the Next Generation of Artists
One of the greatest privileges at HVS Conservatory is watching artists grow—not only as musicians but as people.
Tig3r’s success has become an inspiration for every student currently walking through our doors. His journey demonstrates that professional dreams are achievable when artists combine talent with discipline, mentorship, and a commitment to lifelong learning.
