He was the bomb back then, I still listen to I'm Ready and Can We Talk. People don't remember that they tried to make Usher the next Tevin, but Usher's voice changed too early. I think they made Tevin too serious too fast, plus the whole gay thing killed his career (shows how different it was just 20 years ago.) Chris Brown voice on his first album was modeled after Tevins, play Excuse Me Miss and Just ask me to at the same time.
