He never even wanted a record deal or to be a star. He just wanted to sing. Along his path to success though, Musiq Soulchild was battling some personal demons that, if not handled correctly, could potentially ruin everything.

Musiq has classic hits! He lead the neo soul wave in the early 2000s imo. That was a such great time for music.

I agree. A lot of talk about how the 90s was music was at its peak but we tend to forget or didn’t realize that the early 2000s was the true peak for music. Especially for Rnb/neo soul

@TheNewgreatlife 2 года назад

@@cookinwitp0ppin331 That's true facts! Not just opinion, ACTUAL FACTS! The summer of 2001 in particular is actually R&B's ultimate peak. Almost every mainstream urban act had a hit album out that year. There was huge saturation and huge hits to match! We haven't seen an era quite like that since.

@TheNewgreatlife 2 года назад

@@thedepresseddog6035 I don't know about what Sade had out then, but I'd say Erykah Badu truly lead the early 2000s neo-soul. She was the only 90s pioneer that continued making music throughout the 2000s while D'Angelo, Maxwell, and Lauryn Hill all disappeared. By 2003, she was the only already established name still making neo-soul.

Musiq Soulchild doesn't ever get brought up in the conversation even though his music is amazing! He's always been treated as "just there." It's definitely about time he got his flowers! "Just Friends", "Halfcrazy", and "B.U.D.D.Y." are some of my favorite and most played songs ever! Big shoutout to "Love" too. That's a classic R&B song of the early 2000s! My mom is stuck on "Teachme."

I'm from Va and Philadelphia is a city I fell in love with. My 1st visit was in 1998, everlasting memories. The part of Va I came from, was slums and gentrified in the late 90s early 2000s. Philly is a place I rock with hard! Love the women out dere, beautiful queen's! Many brothers are cool and knowledgeable! The streets is real out dere! Nothing but respect. I recently did a job out dere, January 5, 2022. Truck delivery from Maryland too Philly. I currently live in Maryland left my hometown for a better life. Again love Philly. I went too "Gooey Louie's; too get a chicken cheesesteak! Gooey Louie's ran out of the chicken cheesesteak so I walk down a few block's too a soulfood seafood restaurant got crab cakes and macaroni/ cheese, expensive 19.76 but it was delicious. Maryland is known for its 🦀 crab cakes, so I was surprised Philly made dem really good! Love y'all beautiful queen's man!

@BLACKSENSUALITY 2 года назад

It’s so disappointing to me that an artist of Musiq’s caliber could ever have to feel unappreciated & unsupported. This Brotha has delivered so many classic songs. His songs from years ago can be played today & still sound fresh. I wasn’t annoyed by his choice to rap or go purple. I just assumed that he was experimenting with different styles of music. He’s one of a few artists whose work never disappoints or gets boring. If I remember correctly, some of his relationship business went personal, he was painted as being shady & unfaithful & that’s when public sentiment & support seemed to change a bit. It impacted his public image or persona, but the music has never ceased to pop. In any event, I like how you chronicled his career & his life. You did good!

Can you do a video on Raheem DeVaughn and Melanie Fiona? Thanks and keep up the good work! I feel like fans are so hypocritical sometimes. They want "real" music but don't support it with their dollars and streaming counts. The artist has to make a living so they change up to what's selling and the fans get mad.

Unfortunately, it's very hard to change your persona and brand once you are successful with one style. People become committed to that persona and idea of the artist.

@Pandy879 2 года назад

Reading these comments. These are just some of the reasons why artist can’t be who they really are. They can’t create the music they truly want to create. People peg you for a style of music or a specific song that they can’t be open to anything else that doesn’t fall in that same category. Musiq soulchild is amazing. From the beginning and currently. He’s one of my favorite artist hands down. I love ALL of his music and alter ego music as well. You have to be able to be open to more than just what you are comfortable with. It hurts my heart hearing him say he can’t perform all his new music because because people shut it down only to hear his old songs when in reality, he’s not Musiq from the early 2000s. He has evolved. Please try and be understanding and support. It can be very discouraging to hear so much negative feedback from those who don’t even give his new music a chance.

Him and his music is the bomb! I saw him in concert twice and he sounds just like the record!!!!!!

Never bought any of his 🎵 music. After hearing just a small portion from your video, I think I might ⛏️ pick up something this year. Being an older adult now, I don't keep up with everything current, because far too many young people who make music now just don't appeal to me. I grew up during the 60's through the 80's, so I have always been Old School, primarily.

I've always loved, admired and respected this talent brothers work. I wad fortunate to see him live at Radio City Music Hall and his talent is definitely something to behold. Not to mention his band was comprised of full figured beautiful and talented women..just goes to show that he's about talent ..not simply the clichéd presentation. I still give his tracks heavy rotation in my mixtape series. His entrance into the music industry heralded the birth of the Neo Soul Era. Philly had some of the best Neo Soul artists whose music had stood the test of time. Glad to see he hasn't given up on sharing his gift with the world.

Musiq should reconcile with his previous producers that was involved with his early success at Def Soul.. Because Musiq deviated from the music that we can feel. I’m a huge fan of Musiq but the music after the previous producers split is hit or miss.. On a side note: Musiq needs to sing all his songs in his concert.. I went to a show and he let the crowd sing all night 90% while he sang 10%. I didn’t pay for karaoke.. Much Respect to the video & I’m still a huge fan of Musiq! ✊🏾

@qb6570 2 года назад

That was by design. He didn't want to be pigeonholed in Neo Soul music. He wanted to be free in music. He did an interview with the 85 South show this year about his music choices.

@tamcar04 2 года назад

I saw him live in 2019 and I was shocked at how underwhelmed I was...he didn't sing any of his hits and his performance was really lackluster

@skindippedingold 2 года назад

I saw him live a couple of times in Philly and Baltimore and he was very disappointing. He was late to the shows and hardly sung the entire song which yielded lazy performances. I’ll just continue to steam his music. Awesome video btw!

I play his music literally everyday. So beautiful & Love are my favorite songs by him. Love was originally supposed to be a Gospel song where inserts of the word Lord would originally be said instead of “Love.” He is so underrated.

I'm glad he went back to being himself as Musiq because those rap personalities wasn't for him and that's not what got him to the dance. I still jam those first couple of albums.
