King of the cover. Covers song such as Ephraim Lewis's Drowning in Your Eyes, Michael Jackson's Can't Help it
Talking BookTalking Book by Stevie Wonder

The best female artist in the last 15 years at least. THE queen of smooth. She has an equally good band accompanying her

So underrated its a crime. Has many influences in the r&b world, as is evident on many of his tracks. Well worth the money

One of his better albums, before he met P Diddy to whom he sold his soul to. Nice production and such an addictive voice
Back to FrontBack to Front by Lionel Richie

If you show me someone who cant find at least 3 songs they love on this album i'll show you a dead man. The best love-song writer in the last 30 years and thats saying something.

The most underrated artist in the history of underrated artists.

JavierJavier by Javier

Kid got talent! What a voice he has, and he worked with some great producers like The Underdogs. Anything with Nathan East on bass is out of this world.
Love StoriesLove Stories by Frank McComb

Just a bit better than his debut The Truth. Which is certainly saying something. Such a great modern jazz singer. One of the best voices of modern times

Maybe not to everyone's taste. But very talented musicians and that's what i appreciate.
Sign 'O' the TimesSign 'O' the Times by Prince

Prince's best album imo. The best double-album of all time (just after Stevie's SITKOL)
The DayThe Day by Babyface

One of the best modern r&b albums. Babyface really is a talent.
