Published: Thursday 9th Mar 2017 by David

Tevin Campbell has something to say about Usher’s claim that the hit single ‘Can We Talk’ was originally penned for him.

Released in 1993, the number peaked at #9 on the Billboard Hot 100 and pushed sales of Campbell’s ‘I’m Ready’ album far over the 2 million copies sold milestone.

How he feels about Usher’s claim that the song wasn’t really his?

When I first signed to LaFace Records, I wanted to do an album with Babyface and LA Reid, right? I signed specifically for that reason. So LA Reid wanted Babyface to work on me and they were going through, you know, a lot of drama at the time. They were kinda severing their ties…he got mad…And he built an entire album for me, and he gave the whole album to somebody else…Tevin Campbell! ‘Can We Talk’…was my song…’
