For instance, like Beyonce, Kelly, Michelle, and Letoya for Destiny's Child have one or Omarion of B2k have a solo CD. I pick.... T-Boz of TLC The twins in Jagged Edge- I think they would fit in perfect with today's R & B music. Shawn stockman of Boyz II Men- Why not? He already did a few songs for different movie soundtracks so a Solo CD would be just fine. LaTocha Scott of Xscape- wonderful voice and I would love to see her come out with a CD Bryan Abrams of Color Me Badd- I think he would also fit in perfect with today's R & B or pop music. Jazz of Dru Hill- It's time for him to come out with one...so far Sisqo had one, Woody and supposedly Nokio. | |||

Moofu 2008-10-12 22:06:01 Total Posts: 725 | I download some of Wayna's solo stuff he has one song titled "Official" that I like. Shawn had "love again" and "visions of a sunset" the latter is an alright track. Nate also has a solo song titled "wishes" which is awesome and you guys can check it out on youtube. | |||
DJGee 2008-10-12 22:22:15 Total Posts: 56 | Wanya released a solo album in 2000 called "Milenium Renaissance" that flopped horribly. Then 2 years ago he released the mixtape that had "Official" on it, but I didn't really like the cd as a whole. Shawn would be my first choice for him to go solo from that group. Speaking of, I know Slim from 112 has a solo album coming out called Loves Crazy, I got to hear some of it a few weeks ago, its pretty good! I'd like to see the twins from Jagged Edge go solo as well, and I wouldn't mind seeing RL from Next do his thing either. | |||
Sonofsoul 2008-10-13 07:03:53 Total Posts: 212 | RL does have a solo album. It's titled RL: ements. i listened through it a few times and really wasn't feeling it, but it's worth a listen. I don't really listen to too many "groups" so I have no one that I want to hear go solo. Beyonce would be at the top of my list...if she hadn't already gone solo | |||
lpc26 2008-10-13 08:36:37 Total Posts: 732 | I wasn't aware that Wanya had released a solo LP in 2000. I don't remember that song "official" by Wanya either. I can't believe I missed that CD. The only song I know that Jazz of Dru Hill did was the song from Nutty Professor Soundtrack called "here with me". I have about 4 to 5 songs of songs that Shawn stockman did off of different movie soundtracks. I remember R.L solo album, I might see if I can get it off of amazon.com. | |||

R&B Guru 2008-10-13 09:52:40 Total Posts: 2527 | Wanya's solo lp isn't really a solo LP but more of a "Wanya Presents" album. Shawn Stockman has done a TON of solo stuff (probably 8 or 9 tracks). My favorites are probably Condition of My Heart and Visions of a Sunset, probably Stand as well. If anyone's interested, email me and I can see if I can send you some of his tracks. | |||
d0rk 2008-10-13 13:53:38 Total Posts: 359 | Daron Jones & Q of 112, has several songs out. RL, has a lot of new songs out the past couple months. Former Dru Hill member Scola did a song with a girl around '07-early '08, I have to look at my files for it. Pleasure P of Pretty Ricky is doing his thing, the song "I Did You Wrong" ain't that bad. Doode, everytime someone mentions Shawn Stockman, I always wished he did a full version for "Love Again" =/ | |||
R&B Guru 2008-10-13 19:49:30 Total Posts: 2527 | I'm not sure I know love again. Ima have to check it. Got me excited though... thought it was the same Love Again as Sam Salter's but alas it's not. | |||
Moofu 2008-10-13 21:30:28 Total Posts: 725 | Shawn's love again is pretty nice. Guru you a Sam Salter fan? Have you heard his version of "Color of love"? | |||
R&B Guru 2008-10-13 22:42:01 Total Posts: 2527 | Hahaha yep. Those two songs and I think "You Are" are really the only songs of his I've listened to and really liked. The rest is up and down. But I wish the "Little Black Book" album had been released. I love the concept and between Love Again and Color of Love, it was a pretty good album. I used to have the whole thing, not sure how much I have now. | |||
JohnnyAwesome24 2008-10-14 08:13:20 Total Posts: 1928 | All of these guys should just stick to being in the groups they are in. None of them have released anything that was better than decent and I doubt they ever will. If it ain't broke don't fix it right? | |||
junebug18 2008-10-14 08:29:07 Total Posts: 540 | Co-sign^^^^...I'd wouldn't want to hear any solo from an artist that is already great in a group. Releasing solo work always tears the group apart. | |||
