Charlie Wilson, Charlie.. Last name Wilson

Okay, Uncle charlie has really out done him self this time. His latest LP is a classic.

The former lead singer of The Gap Band has proven to be a mind blowing talent as a solo artist.

With the tracks like Magic & Charlie, Last Name Wilson.. he really puts the R back in RnB. Uncle charlie also does an outstanding rendition of "Let's Chill"..which leaves me not ever wanting to hear the orginal by GUY!

Do yourself a favor y'all.....pick this up at your local wreka stow!!

I heard the single and I hate it disbelief


He used to do great songs like "Outstanding" and "Yearning For Your Love",and now he's doing some lame,R.Kelly-produced crap? How the mighty have fallen.

I hate that new song, too David. It sounds like some old ass playa dude trying to pick up some young chick at the club and he's gotta tell her what material possessions he's got to get her attention.

Hello! I heard the whole cd and I hate it. He should be leading and teaching instead of following and copying what's "commercial".

This is sooo beneath Charlie.

I agree david, the lead single sucks. But the album does have some nice cuts. I actually thought it was going to be worse than it is. It's not great but it was worth the $9.99 I paid for it. Maybe it just a matter of it out doing my low expectations.

everytime i hear this song i get an image of an old man still running after skirts. He's in the corner of a dark club, singing, trying to catch the attention of a young female with tight clothing to give him his number. He doesn't want to approach her like any other man, so he thinks that introducing himself to her in a charming song will help lure her to his silk lonely sheets. For those skanks who go to clubs looking for dick, he just might succeed, but then again, you don't pick up respectable women nor men from clubs anyway... confused
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

Wanna hear this record. Just don't want all slow jams..I'll end up skipping a good slow jam in search of an uptempo song like R. Kelly's "TP3.com" which is just bored

Underwhelming CD....R. Kelly got Charlie singin about "magic in my pants". What in the blue hell? 5 thumbs down. FAR from a classic. You can't put whipped cream on a goat turd and call it ice cream. This so-called "music" is beneath Charlie & his talents.

Nope it's "pants".Listen in at about 1:30 into the song...


I like the album very much.The best track would have to be Floatin' with Will.i.am and Justin...
