THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYIN'! 
R&B is getting alot of popularity to the point alot of japanese singers are doing R&B like Chemistry, Crystal Kay, Ken Hirai, and others "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." |

Last I heard, he's still recording I used to have one of his albums. I thought he was going to have some success here but then he disappeared (from US scene). The states are picky about what foreign acts they embrace. I thought Kylie would have been big here a long time ago. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |
