Carl Thomas is so insipid. http://www.amazon.com/gp/...324&sr=1-4
I bought Carl Thomas album along with Musiq's Luvanmusiq because of all the positive reviews on Amazon.com. What is interesting about this album? I am not feeling it at all. | |

I have asked myself the same question. I don't understand the appeal of Carl Thomas. The guy can't sing and has no range. I have listened to all 3 of his albums and the first one is better than the rest (and that's not saying much). **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

I was crazy about his
first album because I thought he would be the male version of what Puff was doing with the Marys and the Faiths but was quickly disappointed with the second release... kinda boring... gotta be in the mood for that sort of thing because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." | |

I've never liked this guy's music. He just doesn't have any range nor soulfulness in his voice. The only songs I really dug by him were 'Summer Rain' and 'Emotional'. Check me out and add me on:

In your opinion which male Neo-Soul artist surpasses Musiq in soulfulness and range? I will admit that I find Musiq's latest to be not even a half-hearted attempt to achieve what he did in his debut. | |

His biggest problem is that Puff and his team are not very good at actually creating music with meat on it's bones. That cookie cutter shit quickly plays out. | |

 Maybe Puff should consider changing his name to "hot air and no substance" | |

I remember when he came to Southern University for our Homecoming Week that was the year 2000 and "Summer Rain" was all the rave... his show was boring as hell but when the beat dropped for SR... the whole place got up it was the greatest feeling magical even too bad most people left after he did that song ROTFL because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." | |

I missed most of the action before the concert... probably in my room getting h***  because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." | |

I was all about this CD at the time...
still love "I Wish" I knew about his credits for vocal work on Bad Boy productions and then BET blew up that single. Can't say I have gone back to it though. It is very spring/summer 2000 related. | |

How did you guys hear about Carl Thomas? I errr... I just remember hearing "I Wish" and loving it I was just about to start college and was in Wal-Mart shopping for my dorm room and saw his album didn't know it was out... totally took a chance but LOVED the album... yup... we had a rented Montero Sport at the time and I remember riding around and KNOCKING this album
I take it back I think I remember hearing the remix for "Been Around The World" BAD BOY had a remix everytime you turned around and they all were HOT!!! yup, I got that on vinyl [Edited 3/20/08 17:45pm] because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." | |

Carl Thomas is one boring motherfucker. I've never liked any of his songs and he sounds no different from any other R&B singer. He is wacker than wack. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

yup
my favorite song from there is probably the Kelly Price-assisted "Giving You All Of My Love" I can never get enough of that song because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." | |

Summer Rain is just ok but I get tired of people making whole songs based off of other people's stuff. every time I heard it I kept singing to myself: summer soft, wakes me with a kiss to start the morning off.... | |
