About Ruben

The Velvet
Teddy Bear

🐻 "The Velvet Teddy Bear"
"Born and raised in Birmingham — performing for the world."

Ruben Studdard won America's heart on American Idol Season 2 and has spent two decades since building one of R&B's most soulful catalogs. His warm baritone has carried chart-topping hits, Broadway stages, and sold-out touring venues across the country.

A proud product of Birmingham's rich musical tradition, Ruben has remained connected to his hometown — performing locally, giving back to the community, and representing Alabama on the world stage. With his Grammy-nominated debut Soulful to his most recent release Unconditional Love, his voice remains one of the most distinctive in the genre.
