I wonder, where's Tevin now?

His voice kiiinda reminds me of young MJ!

I wish Quincy could do another Jazz album...Didn't like that Q bossa album at all XP

his voice is so cute, i like this song. Reminds me of MJ

i always wonder if it was Quincy who turned out Tevin.

...Kinda?

He sounds almost exactly like little MJ.

Ah, those were the days! Tevin murdered this song. Back on the Block was the album of 1989. Great song.

When I first heard this at five, I actually thought it was Michael. Sounds JUST like "I'll Be There" in parts too...

It does. Tevin sounded like a 13-year-old Michael on many of those songs he did back in the day. This is one of them!

Yep. People actually thought he was gonna be a serious threat to Michael...and he could've been had issues not got in the way.

I love Tevin Campbell I still listen to him; he was getting his Michael on with this track. He get’s his Michael on a lot of his songs actually.

I love this interview. Tevin had such an old soul at a relatively young age, just as Michael had at that age.

Yes I watched this before I think Tevin could have been big like Usher.

I wish Tevin would've blown up more. Dude just had an incredible voice. I gotta some more of his music in my collection. The only album I have by him as a solo artist is I'm Ready and that is on cassette! I played the hell outta that tape back in '93 on my old Walkman and around the house.

I have his greatest hits album I need to download the ones he did on soundtracks I love the goofy movie songs l2l and Stand out when I was little.

I loved everything Campbell ever put to tape. It's a shame the career couldn't have taken the next step; even so, I wish him joy and peace of mind.

One of my absolute favorites by Tevin, even more so than "Tomorrow":

It's a shame that his career went to nowhere. I think he's a way talanted than Usher and these others R&B singers.

Rahsaan Patterson put his stamp in this one for Tevin.

I don't think so. He couldn't dance as well as he sings .

So MJ had him beat.

Yeah I don't think he could ever be a serious threat to Mike, but on his own, Tevin would've definitely blew other successors out of the water because there was one thing Tevin had: A VOICE! The kid was exposed to so many things by the age of 14, during the success of his career-defining albums T.E.V.I.N and I'm Ready (drugs, family issues, bad management, law problems, etc.) What a tragedy because this kid was destined to be a worldwide name.
