So, O'Bryan, used to be compared to Prince? What were people sniffing? I just read on wiki, that back in the day, O'Bryan was compared to P. Now I remember O'Bryan back in the day as having a jheri curl and a few minor hits. I didn't think he was that major? Am I wrong? "Lack of home training crosses all boundaries." | |

No,he wasn't a major star but he had several big hits on the R&B charts...
"I'm Freaky" is his best single  | |

I loved O'Bryan. From what I've read, Don Cornelius was part of the reason he never got to be really huge. Something about they got into disagreements and Don supposedly ruined his career.
"Lovelite" is his best song 2 me. One of the funkiest joints of the 80s for sure. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

You have to remember, each record company had this young, "sexy" guy that the girls would love. O'Bryan just happened to be Capitol's. I think Motown was the last to jump on the bandwagon with Georgio. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

I think Motown was the last to jump on the bandwagon with Georgio. And both of them flopped harder than a mothafucka... I was a little scared of Georgio though when I first saw him (I was four, so give me a break...  ) | |

I was a little scared of Georgio though when I first saw him (I was four, so give me a break... )I wouldn't say that O'Bryan flopped. The guy actually sold well. Georgio didn't do very well, though. I don't think either had cross-over success, though. AlexDeParis where are you with ur stats? I was never afraid of Georgio, I just found it a little strange he was singing about Tina Cherry and looked like "Tina Cherry". People always talk about Prince's style, but you could always tell he was a "man". [Edited 10/31/08 13:03pm] **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

They compared him to Prince because of the falsetto. I think Junior sounds much more like Prince. Andy is a four letter word. | |

I don't know how well he sold but he got lots of radio airplay. I don't think either had cross-over success, though.
Thank God. Crossover success usually ruins artists. Andy is a four letter word. | |

Thank God. Crossover success usually ruins artists. I guess that's what I meant by flop that neither of them were mainstream then again that's not a bad thing. Both of them had some R&B success, O'Bryan more often than Giorgio and I think the reason Giorgio didn't get any success after 1988 was because he was talking shit about MJ and Prince. | |

It makes him look like one of those ugly ass Chipendale dancers which look like muscle bound women. I don't know why women find those type of men sexy. Maybe they're lesbians.

I know!!! 90% of those guys are usually gay. If they aren't gay, they are in love with themselves. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

I thought it was purty. 
But this is what people were into back in the '80s.
"Dude looks like a lady...yeah but he's hot".  | |

His first album was great but after that, he didn't have any success because the lead single, "Rollin", for the next album sounded like shit. Andy is a four letter word. | |

"Dude looks like a lady...yeah but he's hot". And those shaved and waxed chests.....  And those trimmed or shaved dicks...  What the hell happened to men? And people wonder why child molesters exist. Hell, the strippers and porn industry promotes a child looking image to the public.Andy is a four letter word. | |

Giorgio especially in that picture looks like a twink. Oh, I'm aware of what twinks are from when I used to have internet at home. Other than the org, the only other sites I would look at would be porn. I mean, why the hell else would anyone want the internet? I think those porn sites put viruses in the computer and killed it. I got a new computer at home now and I'm not getting internet on it for that reason.
Anyway, twinks were all over the gay sites. I soon learned that bears where hairy men but most of them were fat. It didn't take me long to figure out that the sexy hairy men were called cubs. Andy is a four letter word. | |
