JumpinJack AJ Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 I have followed Keith Sweat since the late 80's..and have all of his albums since the mid-90's. I can't wait 2 hear the new album. I gotta confess tho', i haven't listened 2 his albums in a big way since like 96/97. He's caught in a weird place where he waz blazing hot but since times have changed, he's not gettin support from radio and TV. He's also would do some trax that were a stretch 4 him. Either way, he always pumps out quality. I can't wait 2 hear something new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigted Posted May 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 I've been listening to Keith Sweat since the mid-90s, he's one of my favorite r&b artists of all-time so I'm looking forward to this release, but I doubt it'll sell much since his popularity is gone now, he came out around the same time as JJFP did, and with "Lost and Found" struggling to go gold with FP being the most popular ol' school artist, that's not good news for Public Enemy and Keith Sweat when they release albums this summer.

J-o-e Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 I've Heard a few Keith Sweat songs, i like them, but also havent heard him in a while, might have to check the new album, thanks for this ted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigted Posted May 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 Hey Joe you should check out his greatest hits album that he released last year if you wanna hear more from him, I only have a few of his albums but I'd say his self titled "Keith Sweat" is my favorite 'cause that was around the time I got into to him and it never gets old listening to. :2thumbs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumpinJack AJ Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 I planned on getting his Greatest Hits album...but never did. Since i own 5 of his other albums i wasn't in a rush 2 get one with music i already have. His self-titled album waz his "come back" album. He had done really well, but that 1996 album rejuvinated his career in a big way. Still In The Game waz real good and did decent. The next is where sales started 2 slip. It's a shame the way established artists like him who stay making quaity music start slipping in the marketing area. I picked up his Rebirth album which waz good i honestly never listen 2 it. After i get thru' with all my new music, i'll have 2 pop it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
