MUST give credit to these background singers. They're definitely a unit and they definitely shined, especially on "Lady Dujour."

I drove all the way to Kansas City to see him it truly was the Johnny Gill Experience!! He’s super talented, plays multiple instruments and his vocal ability even with a cold was insane been a fan since day 1 still bumping this in my car🥰 He’s the real deal...They don’t make em like him anymore and that’s FACTS❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ musical genius 😌

[@belindagreen5366]

OMG, I thought I had seen all of his performances! This segment of the BET with the guitar I missed. This is a favored man with gifts that can't be duplicated. His vocal range, his multiple instrumental abilities, his swagger and sexy stage presence; All I can say is he's One of a kind.🤷 GOD Bless you Johnny Gill💞🌹💞

Thanks I’ve been looking for this I sware and I’m 12 finna turn 13 and I love old school please keep this up here forever please and be safe

[@PurpleRain500]

Certainly! I will keep all of these up. I’m 23 about to turn 24 next month and I just ADORE classic R&B and REAL music by REAL musicians. The “artists” today just don’t do it like this. All of that autotunes and electronic music doesn’t cut it. Back then you either had it, or you didn’t. Very few ways of faking the funk back then. Thanks 4 watching and please check out my other videos! Stay safe and stay blessed! 🙏🏾💜
