R.I.P. Andrea Martin The singer/songwriter passed yesterday at 49 years of age. Martin was a writer on popular 1990s songs including En Vogue’s “Don’t Let Go (Love),” Monica’s “Before You Walk out of My Life” and SWV’s “You’re the One,” which each claimed the top spot on Billboard’s R&B chart. Each of those hits also reached the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, with “Don’t Let Go (Love)” rising all the way to No. 2. Martin also earned writing credits for Tony Braxton’s “I Love Me Some Him,” Leona Lewis’ “Better in Time” and Jennifer Hudson’s “I Still Love You.” The Brooklyn native was well loved.

Its weird, couple of weeks ago afew folks were posting her interview videos about how she got robbed off her work by the dance producers, and last night the news hit about her passing. Great talent and seem like a very kind spirit, I hope she's at peace wherever she is. | |

For those who are interested, you can check out her mixtape “Nothing New” on SoundCloud, which is a collection of the demo versions of the hits she gave to others such as En Vogue, Angie Stone, Blu Cantrell etc here https://soundcloud.app.go...qSfxPghfDA I think I prefer some of these songs in their original form, her voice has always been so distinctive. I’m not gonna lie, I even got emotionally overwhelmed listening to this mixtape. | |
