Spin: Bilal is the most underrated male singer of all time

[dora_da_destroyer]

don't think he's underrated at all, especially given his low profile and propensity for long breaks. yet even with that BET knew to pull him out the cut for the prince tribute, that alone let's you know his talent registers on people's radar

Seems like a great concert to be at. Favorite performance of Sometimes starts around 3:26


Sometimes

 

[I love Latina women]

I still haven't listened to it

Word?
That's his best IMO

I have this weird thing where if I fall completely in love with a debut project from an artist, I'm hesitant about checking for the next one out of fear of being disappointed.

Especially if I see that the second project isn't being talked about like the first one.

Sometimes I end up going back months later and finally checking it out, sometimes so much time passes that I completely forget about it and never do.

That's the case with his second project.

He’s excellent on features. One of the best songs on LWFC.

YES!!!! The soulful/gospel influenced vocals at the end... WHEW!

"sometimes" is one of the greatest songs EVER. personally i think he has a pretty great discography, so many great songs. glad to see "something to hold onto" posted already.

once this album dropped "slipping away" immediately became a favorite for me and i've played it constantly since. some incredible live videos of this one out there as well as others (i really need to catch a show eventually) but god damn i could watch this shyt endlessly

I'm still highly pissed I went to see him in concert back in '12 and me and bout 6 others was jamming to his catalog but once went started doin songs off the 1st album they crowd started jumping and getting into the show
