he's so humble

@kellyd7415 7 лет назад

YES!!!! And still so talented. Some of these "stars" today could learn a lot from him and what humility means.

His song "Turned Away" is absolutely one of my top 10 of the 80s. Love this dude. And he did great with Janet Jackson on her history setting Rhythm Nation World Tour...STILL the biggest debut tour by any artist in music history with over 2 million in attendance over the course of 9 months.

Wow. I didn't know that. ❤‍🔥

Turned away sounds almost like spread my wing.

@charlita25 3 года назад

Chuckii thanks 🙏🏾 for “Spread My Wings” performed by TROOP

I always wondered why he seemed to disappear after his initial success. Then I read up on him and found out he really was more interested in producing and being behind the scenes. The thing is, he was the total package: incredible singer, jaw-dropping dancer, and gorgeous. But to find out he didn't want to be a "superstar" was actually pretty cool. Now I love him even more!

The talent is backstage, behind the scenes. The freaks are on stage, all in front of the camera.

Why he is not mentioned along with Jam &Lewis, LA &Babyface, Teddy Riley is beyond me. He truly defines the word “Unsung” on so many levels. I recently heard an interview where he was called the “Rodney Dangerfield of R&B” pretty much sums up that the industry will not put everybody on, only the ones they feel deemed to fit their “agenda”

@GrantH Год назад

Yeah it’s a shame he’s rarely listed as one of the top producers/songwriters of that era unless someone is really in the know about music from that time. This guy had a definite signature sound. Not only are his solo records dope but he did great stuff with Troop, Gerald Albright, and others. Very underrated. Not to mention “Games” was the inspiration for “Return of the Mack”!

He doesn't have those type of catalogues.... let's not get ahead of ourselves

@@OmarHudsonReturn of the Mack is one of the most timeless songs ever made. The Alpha generation knows the vibe and this man created it over 30 years ago

@musiclover3928 13 лет назад

Chuckii had tremendous talent. His first album was off the hook!!.

@musicnerd72 2 года назад

He's one of my favorite producers. I put him on the same level as Prince, Jam and Lewis, LA & Face, Bernadette Cooper... and probably quite a few others I can't think of right now!

Nice Classic interview! Chuckii seems very humble! He's very handsome and Underrated!

@steveland76 13 лет назад

Man, I was listening to a couple of cuts from Chuckii's first album the other day in the car, and I must say the brother's music, his style was fresh. I even listened to a couple of songs he had produced for Troop called, "Spread My Wings", and "All I Do Is Think Of You. He was ahead of his time.
