Are you talking about child singers/musicians who were famous as well, or just started out when they were very young? Because Aretha Franklin signed her first recording deal when she was 14, Gladys Knight was touring with the Pips when she was 7, matter of fact, her vocals was stronger than Michael Jackson's, but she never recorded any music until she was 17. LL Cool J recorded "I Need A Beat" when he was 16, plus Stephanie Mills was touring with the Isley Bros when she was 16.

Yup, all these would count.

-Janet Jackson
-LLoyd (don't think he's a "big" singer)
-Wow Bow
-Romeo
-Destiny's Child
-Does Bootsy count?


Bootsy counts, but Bow Wow, Romeo and Destiny don't because we were looking at people with REALLY LONG careers. Bow Wow and Romeo will count if they've got viable careers in their 40's.

The J5, Stevie Wonder, New Edition, Donny Osmond maybe.

I think to be a child singer and to be taken seriously, without falling into a novelty catergory , you have to be really good. The problem is that talent doesn't alway transcend well into adult hood i.e. Tevin Campbell.


Exactly--I think that's part of what me and my friends were talking about--how difficult it seems to be to get out of that "child" mode. Much like actors.
