I know and I find that so sad sad the guy could really sing. All of a sudden he was singing hooks for Big Pun and Joe and it was over eek So sad.

Yeah but those were throwaways from his previous albums. Some you can tell were from the "Where I wanna Be" days.

You can call me "ROC" for short wink

We used to bump his album in Spring of 2000 when I lived in Phoenix. "Have You Seen Her" was the shit. He was street Neo Soul for sure.

Love Donnell Jones. I always felt that he and Avant were very underrated singers. Avant has been putting out mediocre albums in recent years though. confused

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

This was a straight-up party-joint when it came out :

Even independent artist Dennis Taylor got inspired by that, lol :
