Johnny"s music will always be on my playlist. You can't take away that silky smooth voice. Sit back and listen to MAYBE or TAKE ME, I'M YOURS, and you will also put him on your playlist. Please continue to sing Johnny as long as GOD allows you to. Stay Blessed.

[@rickysmith3214]

You are partially right. He was a bonifide R&B star before he joined NE. He had some success as a solo artist and a hit duet with fellow DC native Stacy Lattisaw on "Perfect Combination." He joined NE to record "NE Heartbreak" with Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis in Minneapolis before the smash tour with the same name in 1988. I know because I took my then girlfriend to the Capital Centre to witness Johnny coming home to a crazed audience of 18,000 plus. He did his solo Motown album which featured "Rub You the Right Way," in addition to "Fair Weather Friend" and "Wrap My Body Tight" which featured the production mastery of Babyface along with Jam & Lewis on "Rub."

[@rickysmith3214]

The solo record on Motown was released in 1991.

[@waunita6]

Yes and him and Staci Lattisaw were doing their thing way before New Edition - DC Greats!!

Johnny Gill displayed his GOD given talent in a Gospel Play in 2011. Johnny Gill is a very private person. Johnny should counter-sue Dewitt.

[@angelinareese4093]

I think his music speaks well over decades and people must treat people right. It is unfair that people try to take artists down with rumors and if he was that is his own darn business. I am so sick of people wanting to tell someone who they are. Johnny has been a wonderful entertainer and tired of being the nice guy people want to walk all over.

Johnny to me has the ultimate R&B/soulful/funkiest gospel baritone voices with a range .. the other was DINO from H Town, who both have this natural innate instinctual voice that can tell any story…..No matter the mood feel or song. I was blown away back in the early 80’s when I first heard Johnny on (Block party) & (perfect combination) with Stacey Lattisaw. Man! I could not believe this boys age. I know some will disagree.. but I don’t feel NEW EDITION is Johnny's bag. It demeans his talent & cheapens his high status as one of the greatest voices out there. NEW EDITION to me is a boy band for boys not a man with a real talent and voice. Hey! but I guess it’s easy work and consistently well paid… which again does him a disservice. Not even BOBY respects New Edition, because he’s had that huge solo experience that really to him was bigger than the band he left and came back to. But Johnny is the king of R&B vocals for me.

He’s a phenomenal man and singer. Just a humble soul that’s has a beautiful voice. But it’s so sad that media made up a lie about his sexuality if you pay attention to the girl behind him when he doing the interview you can see the girl he was engaged to. He should sued whom ever made up that rumor of him being gay. I meet him 5 years ago and trust me there’s nothing gay about that man. Eddie Murphy, Sugar Ray Leonard, Arsenio Hall. Stevie Wonder are his good friends just to name a few of his good friends.
