Kem
Comment:
It's one thing to overcome homelessness and addiction, but Kem also managed to move 10,000 copies of his Kemistry debut before Motown scooped him up for a five-album deal. And what a find Kem was — a natural-born performer/producer who went from being a waiter and wedding band-singer to delivering some of the decade's finest quiet-storm jams. From the spare, spine-climbing keys of "I Can't Stop Loving You" to the caressed chords of "Love Calls," he doesn't coat his compositions with crossover tactics or bangin' beats; he keeps things clear and concise, bringing to mind the kind of jazz-schooled R&B stars who once owned the airwaves long after dark. So bring those lights down low and ease into Kem's instant classics, including the hazy horns of "I'm Missin' Your Love," the string-chased pianos of "Why Would You Stay," and the deftly nailed high notes of "Heaven."
