Great episode. Erie at Dino writing the song "The Day I Die" 2 weeks before his death.

Agreed. Good and balanced participation from Luke as well.

Don't know if it's been suggested here, but Luke really deserves his own Unsung. Didn't realize how much there was to his career until watching the H-Town Unsung and then, a few hours later, catching the 30-For-30 on ESPN about Univ. of Miami back in the day.

But yeah, H-Town's was a good Unsung.

Money.........put u into a lot of arenas in life. (Luke)

One hit song doesn't warrant an Unsung episode. Bad choice.

that was my first thought after seeing the thread title...if they had another halfway decent song besides 'knocking the boots', its a mystery to most of the civilized world...

Man, I already done laid down how many Hits they had compared to Lakeside, the most recent Unsung artist and pretty sure they had more hits then this Wednesday's feature, Jennifer Holiday

STOP IT!!!!!

Here's some brand new H-Town:

That may be true but I can understand how dude may have thought that. That was by far their

most recognizable song although I hated it. I like Part Time Lover but it could have easily passed

for a Jodeci song. Most of their hits as the charts goes were prisoner of the moment. Unless you're a

die hard fan their catalog isn't that memorable. Hell I forgot about Emotions until you bought it up.

They had an interesting episode but when you talk about acts from the 90's H Town is down on

the totem poll compared to other acts from the 90's.

But other than Jodeci, B2M and maybe BLACKstreet, all the other early-mid 90s r&b groups are at the same level. [/b]What's the difference between H-Town and Shai, Silk, freaking Intro or Riff lol.[/b]

Popularity especially when it comes to Silk. I won't even get started

on the female acts like TLC, SWV, and EnVogue. Intro with 2 albums really? Who

the hell is Riff?

How about Az Yet? They even did a song with Peter Cetera

I was just speaking on the male groups. Riff had that jam, Everytime My Heart Beat.

I gotcha. I would even throw the Tonies(even though they debut 1988), Mint Condition,

and All 4 One(for their crossover appeal). I'm not dissing H Town but they are an

afterthought compared to the other male groups of that time.

They're Hitmakers along the lines of Silk, Shai, Next, Color Me Badd, Hi Five, Solo, ect according to this pyramid.

You're right about TTT and Mint Condition, but I didn't include them, because they're actual bands not groups. But the pyramid included them, lol.

Interesting list.

FYI:

ProFyle was produced by Teedy Riley and has some very good material.

Soultry has some joints produced by Mint Codition and also has som good material.

Black Men United is like USA For Africa & Band Aid. They're not real groups. So I don't know why they're on that list, and as a one hit wonder at that. BMU never recorded anything else.

Isn't 3T Tito Jackson's sons?

Truly sad how Dino died along with his pregnant girlfriend, but hell I'd been looking at H Town all those years and never knew they were twins Anyway, I guess Luke screwed a bunch of folks and he's on there trynna look all innocent and shit.
