You might not know him by name...but if you've seen Love and Basketball.....(which you all better have...one of my favorite movies!!)
Then you'll know "This woman's work"
and I believe the music video features him like swimming in the sidewalk or something.
Either way...I orginally thought this track was sung by a woman....but once you know it's a man...then here's where opinion comes in.
Personally....I think his voice on this track..and others...is unbelievable. I'm a huge R&B fan, so when guys can go to the high register...I think it's incredible....he sings the whole song on a higher level than probably thought possible fora man...but I think..no cracks or dropoffs in the piece makes his voice seem almost flawless.
Guys heard of him?
If so...what do you think of this song or him in general?
If you've heard other songs, but not "this woman's work" try and listen to it first.
This is all just me being overly excited because I'm hearing this song for the first time in a long while.....plus i LOVED the movie love and basketball...that soundtrack was amazing in itself...tons of my favorite came from that movie....
Your thoughts?

I just remember that I am 100% positive that Ayhja has heard him....esp on that "sumthin sumthin" track...
I should post that list from that CD and see what you think of it now..and if you have any more reccommendations..
lmao hopefully you remember what I'm talking about...otherwise I'll feel pretty stew-pide
I'm actually gonna go listen to that cd and go to sleep...it brings back some painful memories, because it never got a chance to fufill its purpose....but the crafting of it was a memorable experience in itself..
This was of course before ADN....and all these other people and personalities...back when me and the leader here had tons of conversations that lasted hours upon hours......so yeah this probably more should be in a PM....but eh...
Night guys

Indeed...
Crafting a clever love making CD is a fine art, and I must say, I had that shit down to a proper science...If I got her in the Explorer, and the music was doing its thing, I probably was gonna cut that night, no questions asked...Considering that I would have least like to have met the dame in question, and it still worked out well, I am proud...Man, I used to spend DAYS crafting a CD...You pay attention to a woman, season that shit properly, and you will win her...It was almost too easy back then....
Ahh, those were the days...
Maxwell is that dude...You can let his first CD play the entire way through, no need to skip a trick...And then, there is the sumthin' sumthin' remix that I think LG is talking about...
Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnn...
I am sweating thinking about all the things that went on to that CD....I plan to play it for luv the first time I see her and we are alone, but don't tell her that..! She'll try to prepare... /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
I haven't heard much from Max lately, I do wonder what he's up to...But, either way, he will always bring me fond memories...No R and B fan should be without The Urban Hang Suite....

Holy shit....so I go all the way upstairs...search in my cd pile.....finally come across the cd....and it's dated 11-17-04.
Absolutely no shit......I was as shocked as you guys are!
Well...nvm, this definitely has turned into more of a pm through a thread type thing considering no one has any idea what this cd is even about...
God damn man...how much has changed in this year I can't even begin to tell ya...but I will say that my appreciation for you Tyrone, coming into my life...and introducing me to all these people here and giving me advice and everything has only grown stronger......
and fuck a fapper or other members who will try and ruin this thread..... through skirmishes and arguements on this site I've learned so much more about myself then I ever could have imagined...and that goes out to DD and raum as well....
Please all...feel free to go off topic and feed off my emotional state as I've been doing through multiple replies to my own thread for the past hour...
Love yall man.
