nothing neo-soul about it. i'm normally not that much of a r/b person (i'm more eccentric), but i fell in love with this album. it's r/b, but his voice...man, it's tight. and the songs are deep. it really is about his life!! i'd compare him to an anthony hamilton.

btw, i picked up the new anthony hamilton today, but haven't had a chance to check it out!!!

Have any of you guys heard "Lyfe"'s cd? I LOVE IT.

Donnie Hathaway (my favorite artist of allll time) has a new live cd out. I just found about it and ordered it off Amazon!!

I recently ordered "A Donny Hathaway Collection" from Amazon. The sound quality isn't that great but I love all the songs. I wonder if the quality of the live album is better than the one I have.

I heard November 9th, but I also heard January 2005, too!

It's about time!

Has anyone checked out "The Dana Owens Album" by Queen Latifah yet? I like what I've heard so far.

I saw this brotha perform live and he's not a "studio artist", this man can SANG! I believe he is from Ohio and his album title is after the ID number he had in prison.

Didn't he release an album before that didn't do well. I don't see why not though...the brotha can sang!!!!

AKA2D '91 · #12 10-13-2004, 04:08 PM

He can sing. I guess since he is on "J" records (Clive Davis), he will do better as it relates to marketing and promotion.

lostnfound117 · #13 10-13-2004, 04:08 PM

You guys should check out Van Hunt. I also love this cd!!

Thanks to all of you guys who recommended Lalah Hathaway. It's tight!!

ladylike · #14 10-13-2004, 04:20 PM

Would Van Hunt be a mixture of Lenny Kravitz and Maxwell?

Jamie wasn't that well known then. He was trying to make it as a singer and he didn't have the right people promoting him. So, he moved on to acting...Its about time they gave him his props; he's a great singer.
