Today we’d like to introduce you to Joshua Willis
Hi Joshua, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Ambrose: The Multifaceted Maestro of R&B, Hip-Hop, and Rock
Originally hailing from Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Ambrose is a powerhouse in the music industry, seamlessly blending his talents across multiple genres. As a captivating R&B and hip-hop artist, he delivers soulful melodies and hard-hitting verses that connect with audiences on a deep level. Under the moniker YBF Pharaoh, he commands the production scene, crafting beats that drive the next wave of hip-hop innovation. Beyond the studio, Ambrose brings electrifying energy as the drummer of Versus, a genre-defying band signed to Revival Recordings, where his rhythmic prowess fuels their unique sound.
Now based in Seattle, Washington, Ambrose continues to push musical boundaries, bridging his Southern roots with the raw energy of the Pacific Northwest. Whether he’s behind the mic, the mixing board, or the drum kit, his passion for music is undeniable. With each project, he redefines what it means to be a true musician in today’s evolving soundscape.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The road to success hasn’t been smooth. One of the greatest challenges Ambrose has faced is the loss of close friends he started his journey with—friends who were part of his early career but didn’t make it to where he is now. However, he has redefined relationships and continues forward with some of the same close friends, finding strength in growth and change. Another struggle has been sustaining himself on the road. Without the right resources and support, the journey can be tough. Thankfully, Revival Recordings has always had his back, providing the necessary support to keep going. Beyond the label, the unwavering love from friends, family, and his hometown keeps him grounded. From parents who send money when they barely have enough themselves to day-one supporters who believe in his vision no matter what—support is everything.
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
What sets Ambrose apart is their ability to merge these worlds while staying authentic. Their music is deeply personal, reflecting real-life struggles, triumphs, and emotions that resonate with listeners on a profound level. They take the most pride in their resilience—pushing forward despite hardships, staying committed to their craft, and continuing to elevate their artistry with every project.
Beyond their own success, Ambrose is proud of the journey Versus has taken and the work they’ve built under Revival Recordings. Whether it’s in the studio, on the stage, or behind the drum kit, Ambrose’s impact is undeniable—a true artist dedicated to pushing the boundaries of sound and storytelling.
