He recently did some shows up in Conn, and is in the middle of working on an album which should be out soon. He still around.

Yeah, I thought his music was pretty smooth, and he was pretty easy to look at too.

Crazy that I just found out last year that "Take A Bow" (by Madonna) was originally his song co-written with Babyface. I knew he started out in the LaFace camp, and i'm sure he "paid his dues" alot and had a hand in crafting a few classic tracks here and there when he was coming up in the early 90's.

I liked his official remixes of MJ's 'You Are Not Alone'. I don't like that song too much but his minimalist approach worked well on it.

His last album was released in 2009 I believe...It is pretty well done. Not a classic or anything but I like it more than Stronger Every Day...ALMOST...

I do like this track also from Helplessly In Love. "Its U" The chorus is a bit repetetive though; however it has that midtempo dance sound he always has on all of his albums

I regularly play albums Cool Relax and Pleasures U Like. But I have also been known to put the cut In to Deep on repeat and fall asleep. Such smooth r&b. I wish his career had been more sucessful.

He's coming with Monica and Mint Condition next month. I'm not sure if he's got new music out or on the horizon, though.

Check out my tribute to Prince
