For years I have searched this performance since it was aired on BET's tribute to Stevie Wonder in 2002. What an excellent compilation and arrangement of Stevie's best, but most of all what a stunning performance by Brian McKnight. Such talent!
Extremely versatile: he's possibly the only musician; that can sing anyone's song at such a high level. He's sounds very similar to Stevie wonder by the way.
I had to come leave a comment because as a fan of Brian’s, I did not realize how much he sounds like Stevie until I heard ribbon in the sky. I was like wow. The influence is SO CLEAR. Lmao
Once again he has no Grammys, Eric Benet has no Grammys, Kem has no Grammys but Rihanna, Cardi B has one. The Grammys are prejudice, Maxwell does have one. Chris Brown and R. Kelly has several come on now.
Got me so emotional, Thank you Brian! I am so heartbroken, that I am not where I should be, a musician, live for music, I have it in my soul I love it from the bottom of my heart, I play but it's not that good since I stopped when learning when i was small due to moving, but I will not give u p and make it a journey. God bless you Brian!
I LOVED some Brian Mcknight. His music dominated my wedding and reception. I hurts me to my soul to see the FK boy he turned into and how he's treating his older kids.

@mychalsean The duets i've heard was some of the most amazing music that has ever passed through my ears. Its here on youtube. Brian was at his vocal best during those duets. Stevie is aging and can't carry or hit certain notes. still good though.
@ gdawg they have duets on RU-vid of them singing older Stevie songs. They r not that great but not bad either. U can here that Stevie is aging ya know
Wow I can tell Brian is heavily influenced by Stevie becuase he sounds exactly like Stevie. Just a mkge evolved technically better version of stevies voice. Without Stevie there'd clearly be know brian. Ribbon in the sky almost made me shed a tear.
