This title and thread is updated and edited because of Austin's live performance from 27/7 on Lopez Tonight. It's his first single All I need live

Austin Brown performed this on Global Soul TV the other week. Unplugged type performance. Austin singing and playing guitar.

Speaking of Austin..He released his single, "All I Need" today.

I actually like it.

He's got potential. He's got a natural falsetto although I'd prefer if he used his head voice more like he did in the clip I posted in this thread

He's gonna be on George Lopez's show tomorrow night (7/27).

Five bucks says he's gonna be asked about MJ constantly.

Here's the performance:

Yes his first single is out and is called "All I need"

Hmm... interesting (about the single coming out). I'd probably check it out later.

Overall I have to say that I think that Austin's got a chance. His voice is good enough. Not as distinct and original as Michael's and not as soulful as Jermaine's but he has got a good enough head voice and a natural falsetto. His dancing is really promising. He has got the Jackson style, a little bit of Michael and a little bit of Janet. He has got stage presence, he did really good considering it was his debute. He manages to display some pretty advanced dance moves and sing at the same time without having to lip synch. He isn't a virtouso per se with the instruments but he knows a little bit of everything. Comparing to other Jacksons I'd say that Tito is a lot better guitarist and Jermaine's bass chops is much more impressive but Austin knows a little bit of everything like Randy (although Randy is a bit more skilled in terms of instruments). He is still rather young and I think he'll do good among the ladies. With the right songs and the right promotion he'll do good. The Jacksons minus Janet and Michael were always best as a group effort combining their respective skills. Austin is the whole package and could make it on his own.

Im sorry thats ALOT of stage make up man. He using that Little Richard #53 pancake make up. he needs to come about 2-3 shades down

I know... he is to handsome for that.. but it is fine. Out of all the new generation Jacksons I see he has the most talent out of the bunch. He definitly has alot of potential to make it. I was surprised by his natural convincing stage presence and I see he has alot of his family influences in him.

He is behind Janet for the Throne. Aside from being a Jackson, simply as a performer in today's market, he is way more interesting live act than most. He has some maturity as a performer, the kind that seems to come from developing your skill sets and presentation through working day in and day out. That was nice to see.

Right!

@ him rocking the highwaters like you know who. Nice little tribute (though he can't rock em like Mike did).

I admire him for at least doing something.

Seems like alot of other siblings/ nieces and nephews dont even want to bother. Me personally Im so scared and nervous for dude i can't watch him. As if its me on that stage, I want him to suceed SO MUCH MAN!

Even more than Tito...and im pulling HARD for Tito....

That was cool. Seemed like he got his dance moves from Michael and James Brown lol

Good performance. I wish him much success
