R&B Thread About Nothing

Solo.....extremely, SEVERELY slept on! SMDH

I absolutely LOVED these brothas when I was in high school.....I wish there was a time machine so I can go back to the mid - late '90s! Music is just not made the same anymore. A damn shame!









^^^^^This song ALWAYS gets me in my feelings because it helped me understand the notion of a man loving a woman more than that woman loves him. Once that happens, it is a wrap for you if you just so happen to love that man also. I put myself as the one signing this to that man instead of a man singing this to a woman. (sighing)

HBD Alexander O'Neal!

The album version has this part where the music fades and it's just these drums playing and his singing. It's soooooooooo good. I've been denying myself of this extra magic to an already classic jam for so long...

My dad recorded “if you were here tonight” on the vhs. When i would watch the video, I would always get spooked but at the sametime laugh when Alexander O’Neal eyes bucked when he woke up

Another severely slept on group.....U.N.V.

The same thoughts that I had in my post above for the group Solo applies for these brothas also. Madonna really did not know what to do with them or how to promote them when they were signed to her label because she was still putting out music herself at the time. Again, a damn shame because these dudes could SANG! There were a lot of male R&B groups in the early-mid '90s and though UNV was hella dope, they did not have the same presence as Jodeci, Boyz II Men or Silk.



^^^^^I wanna see anybody try and attempt to cover that song.....it is one of those joints that NOBODY can EVER touch!

RIP Bruce Swedien, a sonic master. His expertise, ears, and vision had a hand in several musical masterpieces. Check his receipts.
