Barnie C. Bills Jr., better known by his stage name SINSAY or Say for short, is a singer, songwriter, and producer hailing originally from Bolivar, Tennessee.

His name arose from his willingness to teach others, along with his love for Japanese Anime' and martial art films. But, some claim it's because his music is "sinful, with something to say"...   

SINSAY stepped on to the scene in 2002 as a member of the hip-hop group Trilogy, on Stacked Up Records, with their debut album, "Drama Made," where he coproduced several tracks and quickly became known for his catchy hooks and unique sound. This album also featured his first solo song, "Hard Times," a soulful ballad about love and betrayal, which he wrote and produced along with producer Larry(Yella Boy) Harris.

He would late team up with producer Carlito (Kinfolk Boyz) and released his second project, "Here For a Reason," with songs such as "Yours Got Me" and "1000 Times".

SINSAY is influenced musically by artists and groups such as Brian McKnight, Jodeci, Boyz II Men, New Edition, Lauren Hill, Jamie Foxx, Musiq Soulchild, Jasmine Sullivan, Neyo, and legendary artists such as Prince, Micheal Jackson, Smokey Robinson, James Brown.
