Justin Calabrese, most widely recognized as an American entrepreneur, author, and business consultant, is adding a new dimension to his already dynamic career — music. Calabrese has announced the upcoming release of his first full-length musical album, Baptized in Regret, a deeply personal project born from years of overcoming childhood and young adult trauma.
Unlike his previous ventures in business strategy and retail, this album marks a raw and emotional departure. With powerful lyrics and unapologetic messages, Baptized in Regret confronts themes of religious abuse, emotional healing, and identity. Designed, written, and performed by Calabrese himself, the album speaks directly to those who have struggled to find peace after pain.
“This isn’t just music — it’s therapy,” Calabrese says. “Every song is a chapter of a story I never thought I’d share. But now I’m ready, and I hope it helps someone else find their voice, too.”
The album is set to release across more than 150 music distribution platforms in the coming weeks.
Calabrese first gained national recognition after his success as a teenage entrepreneur, earning a feature on NPR and solidifying his reputation as a business visionary. He has since launched over seven successful online retail ventures and advised hundreds of small businesses across the country.
Now, through Baptized in Regret, Calabrese is channeling his passion and pain into music — adding “artist” to his growing list of titles.
