I know I've mentioned him in a few other threads, but I love him and I was just flipping through my itunes library some more and my favourite song from his new album just came om!!

check out his new album, "the point of it all." it's good stuff!! I own all his albums in hard copy except for XTC and comin' where I'm from. I think Comin' from where I'm from will be easy to get, but XTC is a lost cause. if anyone knows where to find it you'll be my favourite!!!

I think his voice is one of the most soulful male voices of this generation and he just has this way of telling a story that pulls me in. Even if he's talkin' about how he did his girl wrong, he makes me wanna at least hear out his side.

I bought his album "soulife" on one track "I cried." that song is worth the price of the CD and more. so honest. I feel his pain. In today's world of prefabricated packaged artists who are just in it for the money, it's so refreshing to find somebody I can feel. and he seems to put out an album a year. I like that. keepin' current.

kay. I'll get off the soapbox now. but listen to "I cried" from Soulife and "Her Heart" from the point of it all.

I like him he has that very soulful type old school sound. I can't believe I don't have any of his CDs yet, but all the singles he released are real nice. I love that new he has out now.

He is the bomb and his new CD is and will be a classic. Thats another CD I can't take out the deck.

I think it is pretty overrated. I like him a little more now than I did say a few months ago though. Very soulful voice, but it always seems like hes always trying too hard to be profound.

nah. I don't think his profoundness is trying too hard, it seems real to me.

One of may favorite solo male R&B artist in the past ten years.

He has no weak albums (all 3 are above 4 mics) and his two compilation albums are also great as well. I also have all his stuff except his out of print xtc album from 1996.

The Point Of It All = best male solo album of '08, after Raphael's "The Way I See It". Dude been making REAL making and is still able to sell records without selling out or making bullsh1t joints like Usher for example.

Its funny because someone yesterday asked who is better, "Anthony or John Legend?". I couldn't stop laughing. LOL. John Legend? Now thats what you call trash!

Hmm, my favorite song on each of his solo albums, (not including his two compilations) are:

Comin' From Where I'm From - Charlene

Ain't Nobody Worryin' - Change Your World

Point Of It All - Diamond In The Rough

Honestly, I like Anthony. Him and Lyfe give me the impression of the major players in the soulful music today. However, Lyfe seems to try so hard to be soulful whereas it seems to come naturally to Anthony.

Charlene is an awesome track.
