Freddie has hits! at his peak he was considered Luther's rival. Peace!

[@JustJammin]

Wow, so he was up there! Thanks for letting me know.

@@JustJammin Yeah in the mid eighties Freddie and Luther were going song for song and album for album and this particular album contributed to that debate and with good reason.

Thanks for subbing!

[@TaylorMadeCori]

I miss those days when there were artists whose voices were so distinct, you knew who it was when they sang that first note. When they had different artists gunning for that top spot..... Prince vs MJ, Freddie vs Luther... Whitney vs....well....no damn body...LOL. The 80's were an amazing time for R&B...it brought the balladers OUT. Like Jeffrey Osbourne, Lionel Richie, Luther, Peabo Bryson, Freddie Jackson, Howard Hewitt, Glenn Jones...the list goes ON....p.s. Freddie is the BUSINESS. his voice alone....man. Please check out more of his stuff..

[@michaelprice3992]

Freddie Jackson.....from 1985 - 1992 he had EIGHTEEN Top 10 R&B hits.....15 were top 5 R&B hits...and an incredible 10 #1 R&B hits in that 7 year span!

[@hassafella]

Freddy was ruling the airwaves back then..

[@michaelprice3992]

Tasty Love was one of his TEN R&B #1 hits.....Freddie and Luther were the top 2 male soul crooners of the 80s.....

[@louisokeefe8307]

Started with New York Soul and Magic outfit Mystic Merlin in the early 80,s , but only did one album with them as lead singer... which was mystic merlin,s Full Moon Album circa 1982 on capitol recs... They were a class funk and soul band... Were they incorporated magic tricks and singing and playing their instuments at the same time saw them live in 1982... very special outfit indeed... check Freddie out on mystc merlin,s classic Mr Magician track from the above album also perfect, also from full moon... Freddie left the band soon after 1983, he got feed up with them trying to get him to be part of their magic tricks and singing together performances so when he sang with them he keep his feet on the ground. They did the playing and magic together he just sang... he said in an interview once these cats are trying to persuade me to get cut in half while im singing with them, but i love them cats still. please check out mystic merlin and that special full moon album and them two tracks listed... peace young soul rebel keep the land of the good groove going teach the yut dem...

[@jodyknox2311]

Freddie was that dude 85-88!! Turn on the radio during this time and you heard one of his songs.

[@justicesupreme1643]

@Just Jammin that whole album by Freddie Jackson was a classic album with great songs on it.

[@makingmnz7564]

Mystic Merlin had some great disco-funk albums, with Freddie Jackson as lead vocalist. My personal favorite is Mr. Magician. Freddie's solo career was huge. He had so many hits right from the start. One of his number one's, Hey Lover, had a beautiful jazz and quiet storm combination, which made it have an almost ethereal quality. Freddie's 1990 opus, Do Me Again, was his most consistent album, given the hit machine Barry J Eastmond, and Paul Lawrence wrote and arranged most songs. It was also his most successful, with both hit singles and a number one R&B album. My favorite is, It Takes Two, and it really is the only one with a smooth groove that is perfect for Freddie's talents.

[@Maal7432]

That smooth shit, lil bro.

[@jodyknox2311]

A lot of people were born in 1987 because of Freddie

[@ericdennis3899]

A Lot Of Babies Were Made Off Of Freddie Jackson's Music He Has More Top Ten Hits On The R&B Charts Than Michael Jackson His Debut Single Rock Me Tonite (For Old Time Sake) was a huuuuge hit & You Are My Lady is a Bonified & Certified Wedding Classic Have You Ever Love Somebody,Jam Tonight,Just A Little Bit More w/ Melba Moore & Hey Lover with long time Producers Paul Laurence Jones & Barry Eastmond Solidified His Sound

[@BrothaJ365]

Aw man, I resented Freddy off rip, they had him coming for Luther spot. I was like nah go siddown somewhere, but I had to give in, he really came with the soul! This was the song that did it. I forgave Melba Moore 😂 for bringing him out to light, actually loved their duet.

[@traceejohnson290]

Please do a Reaction Freddie Jackson, "Have You Ever Loved Somebody" I think you will really like it, I ❤ it!

Good morning heartache by FJ

[@sixfootbeauty]

Oh memories of my teenage years. Freddie was right there with Luther Vandross. That was the time for male r&b singers. I hated that folks were trying to create a rivalry with the men that were out comparing them to Luther when they all had a different sound. WTBS, check out Eugene Wilde and Glenn Jones, super talented brothers that put out some great love songs during that time.

[@creamone]

I have the 12" single for this till this day

[@TooSkinnyKenny]

"Tasty Love" is a direct imitation of Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing"

[@nohalfstep4435]

If gonna do Freddie gotta do the album Don't Let Love Slip Away.

[@glenallen9993]

Freddie had the hits in the 80s, often compared to Luther Vandross. He has recorded some good duets as well with Melba Moore, Natalie Cole and Melissa Morgan. I actually like his other hits much better than this

[@TooSkinnyKenny]

you should hear Freddie Jackson's friend and collaborator Lillo Thomas, they sound exactly alike. Maybe start with my favorite Lillo Thomas song "(You're A) Good Girl".
