Very shocking. I hadn't seen or heard from him in a while. Another great R&B legend gone. RIP.

HOW DO YOU KEEP THE MUSIC PLAYING????.... *flowers*

I liked his part at the end of this. Great voice. One day I hope there will be a cure for brain cancer.

Still gives me goosebumps 2 this day. R.I.P. James Ingram, one of the greatest male voices of our time.

RIP I have always loved this song he did with Linda Ronstadt, the classic Somewhere Out There from An American Tail (1986).

I just listened to his songs recently on Youtube.....sorry to hear that.

I'm trying 100 ways to express how much he's going to be missed.

RIP James

#wbw honoring #JamesIngram this is from the recording of Michael Jackson’s PYT which James wrote w/ #quincydjones . #janetjackson invited#mindycohn & I to the session. As I said yesterday after hearing of James’s passing... I have a small collection of memories of him and his fam. This is the first one. #music #pyt #blessedlife

I guess my best wasn't good enough.

in addition to his amazing voice,James also wrote some great songs.He co-wrote "P.Y.T (Pretty Young Thing)" for Michael Jackson and he also plays the keys on Carl Carlton's funky 1981 smash hit "She's A Bad Mama Jama".

He was also the collaborator of the 80s and 90s. RIP

100 Ways...

You want some funk? Better Way... I think it was from one of the Beverly Hilly Cop soundtracks... I loved it. I turned a white guy on to R&B through this 80's R&B song. Great talent. I was wondering where we was for the Quincy thing.

Sudden and sad.

As much a dynamic singer Ingram was, he too was a brilliant musician. One of his contributions was in teaming on the classic R&B "A Night to Remember" by Shalamar.

I love that song

Another wonderful voice and multitalented artist gone.

Rest peacefully.
