[@replicacity92]

Dino had one of the greatest voices ever in any genre. He just passed away at a young age so he’s underrated af

Indeed

[@billo5065]

Dude was a beast 💯💯💯..one my favorites

[@JusKinginIt]

Dinos voice/style is a mixture of Ginuwine, Anthony Hamilton with a twist of Lyfe Jennings..the boy goes hard!

[@carlwallace1129]

Dino was a trend setter and was 1 of the HipHop and R&B G.O.A.Ts, Sisqo and especially Ginuwine swagger jacked Dino and HTown's style. But Ginuwine wined up being a souped up Shazam upgrade when his solo career was set and done. Dino and K-Ci from jodeci were the dopest in the 90s IMO.
