Ohhh!! "Turned Away"! One of my all time favorite slow jams!

Chuckii Booker was Cool back in the day."Touch" was my Jam.He also Produced the Jackson5 Re-Make "All I Do is think of You" on Troop."Treat U Right" He did on Angelia Winbush back in 94 was a cool Jam.He was Janet Jackson's Musical Director for Her 'Rhythm nation TOur".

yep I got that Troop Album.Chuckii was also on Barry White's "Practice what you preach" from 94.I heard of Mikki Bleu&didn't get alot of Buzz on it.I bet you like Newkirk as well??

hmmm...The Rhythm Nation Tour...front row..Chuckii Booker sang "Turned Away" to me... and handed me his towel...It's funny...I never remember Chuckii Booker until some "ol' skool" person mentions his name!!

Much love 4 Chuckii. The first CD was fire! Two versions of "Turned Away" then two killer jams with "Touch" and "That's My Honey" We need Chuckii back!

daaamn we really go way back u n i lol when u said newkirk i had 2 think of the movie livin large... always did like small thang lol brother brother ull soon discover...its just a small thanng...lol

Just think Chuckii thought he couldn't write. What? Troop couldn't ddecide on what to wear. Try dealing with 5 people with different tastes. Just a little more polish. Qincy lost a $50 bet that Chuckii couldn't write a song by himself. Oh well. When yall are ready to talk.

Chuckii was more of a Session Cat&He did a few things.He was also in "HouseParty3" backing up Immature in a Scene.Chuckii was also the First Musical Director on BET's Late Night Show back when Michael Corriuer(Misspelled) was the Host.

chuckii was good...where the hell is he now??!!! He should do more albums.

Session work mainly.can't quite get a deal as a Solo Artist&He came around at the right time when Minneaplis&New jack Swing was in it's peak&after the Record Companys Gave Cats like Dr.Dre,Puffy,Jermaine Dupri,etc.. Side-Labels&whatnot Cats like Chuckki had to go back to Session work,touring&Gigs which I don't think He Minds because it's a Steady Check as to hoping your album gets put out&the other daily matters a Solo Artist has to deal with.

Great thread! I loved Chuckii Booker's first album, but I was a big fan of Mikki Bleu. I bought I Promise back in 1989, and I think that album is great! I especially liked "Until" and his version of "Knocks Me Off My Feet". Additionally, I could tell from the sounds used on one of the songs ("Can He Rock You Like This") that Mikki and I were using the same keyboard on some of the music production we were doing at the time.
