Babyface

Early life

Edmonds was born on April 10, 1958, in Indianapolis, Indiana, to Marvin and Barbara Edmonds. Barbara was a production operator at a pharmaceutical plant. Edmonds, who is the fifth of six brothers (including future After 7 band members Melvin and Kevon Edmonds, the latter of whom went on to have a modestly successful solo career), attended North Central High School in Indianapolis, and as a shy youth, wrote songs to express his emotions. When he was in eighth grade, Edmonds' father died of lung cancer, leaving his mother to raise her sons alone. At this stage, Edmonds became determined to have a career in music.

Music career

Edmonds later played with funk performer Bootsy Collins, who tagged him "Babyface" because of his youthful look. He also performed in the group Manchild (which had a 1977 hit "Especially for You" with band member Daryl Simmons) as a guitarist. In 1982 Edmonds played with funk band Redd Hott produced by Geoge Kerr. He played keyboards in the light-funk and R&B group the Deele (which also included drummer Antonio "L.A." Reid, with whom he would later form a successful writing and producing partnership). One of his first major credits as a songwriter for outside artists came when he wrote the tune "Slow Jam" for the R&B band Midnight Star in 1983. The tune was on Midnight Star's 1983 double-platinum No Parking on the Dance Floor album. Babyface remained in the Deele until 1988, when both he and Reid left the group.

His album Playlist consists of eight cover songs and two original works. It was released on September 18, 2007. It was the first album on the newly re-launched Mercury Records label.

On February 4, 2014, he released a Grammy Award-winning duet album with Toni Braxton titled Love, Marriage & Divorce on Motown Records.

Other ventures

Writing and producing

From the late 1980s to the early 90s, he wrote R&B and dance songs, writing and producing music for Bobby Brown ("Roni"), Karyn White ("Love Saw It"), Pebbles ("Girlfriend", "Mercedes Boy"), The Whispers ("Rock Steady", "In the Mood"), The Deele ("Two Occasions"), Johnny Gill ("My My My"), After 7 ("Ready or Not"), The Boys ("Dial My Heart"), Damian Dame ("Right Down to It") and Sheena Easton.

In 1989, Edmonds co-founded LaFace Records with Reid. Three of the label's early artists, TLC, Usher, and Toni Braxton, were very successful. TLC's second album CrazySexyCool, for which he wrote and produced some of the hits, became the best-selling album of all time by an American girl group. Under his direction, TLC sold more than 60 million albums worldwide, and a combined total of 75 million records. Toni Braxton's first two albums, Toni Braxton (1993) and Secrets (1996), for which he wrote the majority of the songs, went on to sell a combined total of over 10 million copies in America alone.

Babyface helped form the popular late-1990s R&B group Az Yet. Edmonds also helped to mold and work with some of his then-wife Tracey Edmonds' acts, such as Jon B and producer Jon-John Robinson.

Edmonds has worked with many successful performers in contemporary music. “I’m Your Baby Tonight” (1990), produced for Whitney Houston, was Houston's introduction to R&B music and Edmonds' first No. 1 Top 40 hit in the US. He also wrote and produced Boyz II Men's 1992 "End of the Road" and 1994 "I'll Make Love to You", both of which established records for the longest stay at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. He co-wrote, co-produced, and provided backing vocals on Madonna's 1994 Bedtime Stories, which featured the seven-week No. 1 hit "Take a Bow", and shared billing with Eric Clapton on the chart-topping Grammy winner "Change the World" from the Phenomenon soundtrack. He also wrote and produced the No. 1 hit "Exhale (Shoop Shoop)" for Houston as well as the rest of the critically acclaimed 10 million-selling Waiting to Exhale soundtrack in 1995, which spawned additional hits for Houston, Brandy and Mary J. Blige.

Additionally, Edmonds has produced and written music for many artists including Bobby Brown, The Whispers, Pebbles, After 7, Johnny Gill, Deele, Karyn White, The Boys, Damian Dame, Tevin Campbell, Patti LaBelle, Chaka Khan, Aretha Franklin, Madonna, Janet Jackson, Faith Evans, Beyoncé, Diana Ross, Sheena Easton, Toni Braxton, Michael Jackson, Michael Bolton, Paula Abdul, Eric Clapton ("Change the World"), Whitney Houston, Brandy, Mary J. Blige, Tamia, Shola Ama, 3T, Sisqó, Dru Hill, Fall Out Boy, Céline Dion, Samantha Jade, Backstreet Boys, Honeyz, Katharine McPhee, Mariah Carey, Vanessa L. Williams, Bruno Mars, Kelly Clarkson, Chanté Moore, En Vogue, Zendaya, Kenny G, Kristinia DeBarge, Lil Wayne, Kevin Abstract, P!nk, Marc Nelson, TLC, Ariana Grande, Jessica Mauboy, Xscape, K-Ci & JoJo, NSYNC, Jordin Sparks and Phil Collins, among others. He received three consecutive Grammy Awards for Producer of the Year from 1995 to 1997.

Babyface was in the studio for about two years with Ashanti to produce her album The Declaration (2008).

He worked on the Lil Wayne album Tha Carter III (2008), on the Kanye West-produced "Comfortable". He also worked with R&B singer Monica for her sixth studio album Still Standing (2010).

In 2013, Babyface served as producer for Ariana Grande's debut album Yours Truly, producing the majority of her songs, including her second single, "Baby I".

In September 2014, Babyface collaborated with Barbra Streisand on her album Partners, performing a duet on the track "Evergreen" and background vocals for other album tracks.

Babyface also collaborated with Foxes on her second album, All I Need (2016), producing and co-writing "Scar".

In July 2016, Babyface along with Bruce Roberts and Carole Bayer Sager helped write the song "Stronger Together" sung by Jessica Sanchez. The song was played after Hillary Clinton's speech at the 2016 Democratic National Convention. The song's title is named after the slogan that the Clinton campaign used as a show of uniting behind the Democratic nominee. The song was one of the top trending songs on Shazam that week. The song was widely perceived as positive by the listeners, and received praise by celebrities like Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian.

Acting career and film producing

In 1994, he appeared and performed on an episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 entitled "Mr. Walsh Goes to Washington (Part 2)".

In the mid-1990s, Edmonds and his then-wife Tracey Edmonds expanded into the business of motion pictures. Upon setting up Edmonds Entertainment Group, the company producing films such as Soul Food (1997), Josie and the Pussycats (2001), and also the soundtrack for the film The Prince of Egypt (1998), which included contributions from numerous artists, including Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston. They also executive produced the BET reality series College Hill (2004-2009). Edmonds also worked with David Foster to compose "The Power of the Dream", the official song of the 1996 Summer Olympics, performed by superstar Céline Dion. Linda Thompson provided the lyrics.

Babyface also participated as a duet partner on the Fox reality show Celebrity Duets (2006).

He was portrayed by Wesley Jonathan in the 2015 Lifetime biopic Whitney and is portrayed by actor Gavin Houston in the Lifetime biopic based on Toni Braxton entitled Un-Break My Heart, which premiered on the network in early 2016.

On August 30, 2016, Babyface was revealed as one of the celebrities who will compete on season 23 of Dancing with the Stars. He was partnered with professional dancer Allison Holker. He and Holker were eliminated on the fourth week of competition and finished in 11th place along with Vanilla Ice and Witney Carson.

Soda Pop Records

Edmonds founded his record label Soda Pop Records in 2009. Since founding the label he has signed R&B icons K-Ci & JoJo, releasing their first album for the label entitled My Brother's Keeper. In 2013 Babyface secured a distribution deal with E1 Music for the label.

Personal life

Babyface married his first wife, Denise during his young adult years. In 1990, Babyface met Tracey Edmonds when she auditioned for the music video for his song "Whip Appeal". They married on September 5, 1992, and have two sons, Brandon and Dylan. On January 7, 2005, Tracey filed for divorce in Los Angeles County Superior Court, citing irreconcilable differences. In October 2005, Babyface and Tracey announced that they were ending their marriage of thirteen years.

In 2007, Babyface began dating his backup dancer Nicole "Niko" Pantenburg (former backup dancer for and personal friend of Janet Jackson). Babyface and Pantenburg have a daughter born in 2008. The pair married on May 17, 2014.

In 2015, Babyface donated money to the presidential campaign of Republican Senator Marco Rubio.

Impact

In 1999, a 25-mile (40 km) stretch of Interstate 65 that runs through Indianapolis was renamed the Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds Highway.

Babyface was placed at number 20 on NME's "50 of the Greatest Producers Ever" list. NME wrote of his impact:

"One of the founding fathers of all the best bits of modern US R&B. And so you can't hate him if some of the schlock can be traced back to him also. Babyface was a pioneer of New Jack Swing in the 80s, before setting up LaFace with old mucker Antonio 'LA' Reid to give the world TLC, Usher and Toni Braxton under their guiding hand. There's barely a prominent artist in the genre he hasn't worked with, and as a result he's clocked up a mammoth 26 R&B number ones."

For the music meme: honeyz, yes, bob dylan

Honeyz First song youtube took me to: End of the Line First Impression: The clip is super 90s, and I’m kinda over that. But for song I’m still kinda here for it? Even though it’s not the best girlband I’ve seen from their time period. Do I like it?: Sure Would I listen to more from them?: If it’s less generic than End of the Line, yes. Rate (from what I heard): 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10

Yes (Band) Favourite Song: Probably their most popular: Owner of a lonely heart Least Favourite Song: I dont know them enough for this. Favourite Album:No answer Least Favourite Album: Same Song that got me into them: Maybe it was ‘Love Will find a way’? I got into them later. Seen Live?: Nope Rate: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 Bob Dylan Favourite Song: I know some of his songs, but I think Tangled is what got me really into him? Least Favourite Song: I cant answer this, Iunno his repertoire is too extensive. Favourite Album: Again, not enough knowledge Least Favourite Album: See before question Song that got me into them: I think ‘Knockin; on Heaven’s Door’ because that’s one of the first songs my parents explained to me (like, what it was about) when Eric Clapton covered it when his son died. Seen Live?: Noooo

Rate: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10

http://www.internetunleashed.co.uk/?p=32100 Snoop Dogg wants night out with Liam Payne - http://www.internetunleashed.co.uk/?p=32100 The rapper reckons the perfect cure for the former 1 Direction star’s break-up would be a lads’ outing to Sin City. He also said he could introduce Liam, 24, to a string of stunning women to take his mind off his relationship woes.Snoop told the Daily Star Sunday: “Break-ups are never easy for real, but getting angry never made anybody feel better. You know it’s just going to make you feel worse.“I like my boy Liam. He is cool. We partied a little at my album launch a couple of years back and I would like to help him out for sure.”Snoop, who is married to Shante Taylor, said the best cure for heartache is to find someone new. GETTY IMAGES FRIENDS: Liam is close friends with Snoop Dogg “The best way to get over a hot woman is to go and find another hot one – well, maybe more than one” Snoop Dogg He added: “There aint no point trying to fight the world. When you are getting over a woman it’s about honeyz not hate. “The best way to get over a hot woman is to go and find another hot one – well, maybe more than one! “I can take my boy Liam to the hottest clubs in Vegas and introduce him to women so hot all his troubles are going to fade away. “After a weekend in Vegas with me he will forget what he was even angry about.” GETTY IMAGES SPLIT: Liam and Cheryl broke up earlier this year Last week Liam was snapped getting close to a model in Cannes. He was pictured dancing in a club with brunette Cairo Dwek. According to sources the duo first met at Medusa restaurant and cabaret club. Liam followed her on Instagram and “liked” her pictures. Liam and Cheryl, who have a baby called Bear, confirmed the end of their relationship last month. The pair admitted they were sad and said it had been a “tough decision to make”, but will remain close for the sake of their son. Announcing their split, Liam tweeted: “Cheryl and I are sad to announce we are going our separate ways. It’s been a tough decision for us to make. We still have so much love for each other as a family. “Bear is our world and we ask that you respect his privacy as we navigate our way through this together.” Related articles Source link

26 Songs That You'd Think Are 10 Years Old, But Were Actually Released In 1998

https://styleveryday.com/2018/02/24/26-songs-that-youd-think-are-10-years-old-but-were-actually-released-in-1998/

26 Songs That You'd Think Are 10 Years Old, But Were Actually Released In 1998

Oh god, how are these songs TWO decades old?

“The Boy Is Mine” – Monica and Brandy

I’d hope if this was ever made into a modern-day version, it’d actually just be about two women ditching some fuckboy and deciding to become besties instead.

Atlantic

“I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing” – Aerosmith

Look, I know it was for a movie, but it has always appeared to my childhood brain that Steve Tyler was singing this song about his daughter.

Columbia

“Closing Time” – Semisonic

Though the song is normally played to get people the fuck out of the pub, it’s actually been cited as a song inspired by Dan Wilson’s impending fatherhood.

MCA

“…Baby One More Time” – Britney Spears

That school uniform will never not be iconic.

Jive

“One Week” – Barenaked Ladies

When looking up this song again, I found this very intense Reddit thread where the person dissected that the song was about a bloke murdering his girlfriend, and now it’s all I think about.

Reprise

“C’Est La Vie” – B*Witched

“Do you play with the girls, play with the boys? Do you ever get lonely playing with your toys?”

These lyrics really have a whole new meaning when you listen to this song as an adult.

Epic / Via rebloggy.com

“This Kiss” – Faith Hill

I mean, if you like love and stuff, this song is still nice.

Warner Bros.

“When You Believe” – Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston

They’re smiling at each other, but I think they low-key hated each other too.

DreamWorks

“When The Lights Go Out” – Five

Fuuuuuuck, this is so much worse than I even remembered and I still love every second of it.

BMG Records

Lenny Kravitz is still cool. This song is still cool. I don’t care what you say.

A&M

“Finally Found” – Honeyz

This song probably made your tender, childhood heart believe in true luv.

Mercury

“Believe” – Cher

ICON!

“Every You Every Me” – Placebo

Hands up if you knew this song because you played some F1 Formula Racing game on PlayStation One?

Just me? OK then.

Virgin Records / Via giphy.com

“Iris” – Goo Goo Dolls

I love this song, but he needs to leave those telescopes alone.

Warner Bros.

“Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)” – The Offspring

It’s that song you’re 100% guaranteed to still know all the lyrics to.

Columbia

“Save Tonight” – Eagle-Eye Cherry

See, there are some songs I remember SO vividly considering they are 20 years old… and this is one that I just assume my mum probably liked.

Work

“Doo Wop (That Thing)” – Lauryn Hill

Fun fact: Hill became the first woman since Debbie Gibson in 1989, to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard charts with a song she wrote, recorded, and produced on her own.

Ruffhouse

“Shimmer” – Fuel

STILL GOOD!

Epic

“Teardrop” – Massive Attack

It’s OK if you really only identify this song with the very strange video clip.

Virgin

“Too Close” – Next

And I betcha didn’t even realise how dirty the lyrics actually were in the ’90s.

Arista

“We Like To Party” – Vengaboys

“WE LIKE TO PARTY! WE LIKE, WE LIKE TO PARTY!” – I defiantly bellowed as an eight-year-old.

Groovilicious/S.R.

It may have been a one-hit wonder for the band, but what an absolute banger.

MCA Records

“Frozen” – Madonna

This is Madonna at her best. No disagreements allowed.

Electronica

“I Want You Back” – NSYNC

OK, so technically it was released in 1996 in Germany of all places. But it made its way to the UK and US in 1998. Fun fact: The song was originally meant to be recorded by The Backstreet Boys.

RCA

Who could ever forget this FIFA world cup anthem?

Frankly, I'm starting to think the Tumblr urban legend of the fem top might actually be true because I have consistently hooked up with men who go out of their way to present as masc or whatever and even self-describe as such only to turn out to be moaning whore bottoms as soon the clothes come off. This is literally the story of my ENTIRE SEX LIFE from ages 18 to today. I have no complaints about tonight because this dude was literally a pleasure to bone and he was SO FYNE but like he could not have been more masc in his presentation and execution up till the clothes came off. I'm gonna start throwing pussy at las bien mariconas to see if I finally get some D like I have reVIRGINIZED.

Also, unpopular opinion, but water honeyz have the best bussy, this is uncontested and a fact. Butter Puss was a cancer and that shit... as the name suggests... was like butter. This scorpio dude was even better bitch wow. WOW!

Babyface

Early life

Edmonds was born on April 10, 1959, in Indianapolis, Indiana,to Marvin and Barbara Edmonds. Barbara was a production operator at a pharmaceutical plant. Edmonds, who is the fifth of six brothers (including future After 7 band members Melvin and Kevon Edmonds, the latter of whom went on to have a modestly successful solo career), attended North Central High School in Indianapolis, Indiana, and as a shy youth, wrote songs to express his emotions. When he was in eighth grade, Edmonds' father died of lung cancer, leaving his mother to raise her sons alone. At this stage, Edmonds became determined to have a career in music.

Music career

Edmonds later played with funk performer Bootsy Collins, who tagged him "Babyface" because of his youthful look. He also performed in the group Manchild (which had a 1977 hit "Especially for You" with band member Daryl Simmons) as a guitarist. He played keyboards in the light-funk and R&B group the Deele (which also included drummer Antonio "L.A." Reid, with whom he would later form a successful writing and producing partnership). One of his first major credits as a songwriter for outside artists came when he wrote the tune "Slow Jam" for the R&B band Midnight Star in 1983. The tune was on Midnight Star's 1983 double-platinum No Parking on the Dance Floor album, and while it never was a single, it received massive radio airplay and the song is still played on quiet storm radio stations. Babyface remained in the Deele until 1988, when both he and Reid left the group.

His album Playlist consists of eight cover songs and two original works. It was released on September 18, 2007. It was the first album on the newly re-launched Mercury Records label.

On February 4, 2014, he released a Grammy Award-winning duet album with Toni Braxton titled Love, Marriage & Divorce on Motown Records.

Other ventures

Writing and producing

In the late 1980s, he contributed to the creation of new jack swing, writing and producing music for the likes of Bobby Brown, Karyn White, Pebbles, Paula Abdul and Sheena Easton.

In 1989, Edmonds co-founded LaFace Records with Reid. Three of the label's early artists TLC, Usher, and Toni Braxton were very successful. TLC's second album CrazySexyCool, for which he wrote and produced some of the hits, became the best selling album of all time by an American girl group. Under his direction, TLC was able to sell more than 60 million albums worldwide, and a combined total of 75 million records. Toni Braxton's first two albums, Toni Braxton (1993) and Secrets (1996), for which he wrote the majority of the songs, went on to sell a combined total of over 10 million copies in America alone.

Babyface helped form the popular late-1990s R&B group Az Yet. Edmonds also helped to mold and work with some of his then-wife Tracey Edmonds' acts, such as Jon B and producer Jon-John Robinson.

Edmonds has worked with many successful performers in contemporary music. “I’m Your Baby Tonight” (1990), produced for Whitney Houston, was his first No. 1 Top 40 hit in the US. He also wrote and produced Boyz II Men's 1992 "End of the Road" and 1994 "I'll Make Love to You", both of which established records for the longest stay at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. He co-wrote, co-produced, and provided backing vocals on Madonna's 1994 Bedtime Stories, which featured the seven-week No. 1 hit "Take a Bow", and shared billing with Eric Clapton on the chart-topping Grammy winner "Change the World" from the Phenomenon soundtrack. He also wrote and produced the No. 1 hit "Exhale (Shoop Shoop)" for Whitney Houston as well as the rest of the critically acclaimed 10 million-selling Waiting to Exhale soundtrack in 1995, which spawned additional hits for Houston, Brandy and Mary J. Blige.

Additionally, Edmonds has produced and written music for many artists including Carole King, Patti LaBelle, Chaka Khan, Aretha Franklin, Madonna, Janet Jackson, Faith Evans, Al Green, Beyoncé, Diana Ross, Sheena Easton, Toni Braxton, Michael Jackson, Michael Bolton, Paula Abdul, Eric Clapton, Pebbles, Tevin Campbell, Bobby Brown, Whitney Houston, Brandy, Mary J. Blige, Tamia, Shola Ama, 3T, Sisqó, Dru Hill, Fall Out Boy, Céline Dion, Samantha Jade, Backstreet Boys, Honeyz, Katharine McPhee, Mariah Carey, Vanessa L. Williams, Chanté Moore, En Vogue, Zendaya, Kenny G, Kristinia DeBarge, Lil Wayne, Japanese singer Ken Hirai, P!nk, Colbie Caillat, Marc Nelson, TLC, Ariana Grande, Ella Henderson, Jessica Mauboy, Xscape, K-Ci & JoJo, NSYNC, and Phil Collins among others. He received three consecutive Grammy Awards for Producer of the Year from 1995 to 1997.

Babyface was in the studio for about two years with Ashanti to produce her album The Declaration (2008).

He worked on the Lil Wayne album Tha Carter III (2008), on the Kanye West-produced "Comfortable". He also worked with R&B singer Monica for her sixth studio album Still Standing (2010).

In 2013, Babyface served as producer for Ariana Grande's debut album Yours Truly, producing the majority of her songs, including her second single, "Baby I".

In September 2014, Babyface collaborated with Barbra Streisand on her album Partners, performing a duet on the track "Evergreen" and background vocals for other album tracks.

Babyface also collaborated with Foxes on her sophomore album, All I Need (2016), producing and co-writing "Scar".

In July 2016, Babyface along with Bruce Roberts and Carole Bayer Sager helped write the song, "Stronger Together" sung by Jessica Sanchez. The song was played after Hillary Clinton's speech at the 2016 Democratic National Convention. The song's title is named after the slogan that the Clinton campaign uses as a show of uniting behind the Democratic nominee. The song was one of the top trending songs on Shazam that week. The song was widely perceived as positive by the listeners, and even received praise by celebrities like Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian.

Acting career and film producing

In 1994, he appeared and performed on an episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 entitled "Mr. Walsh Goes to Washington (Part 2)".

In the mid-1990s, Edmonds and his then-wife Tracey Edmonds expanded into the business of motion pictures, setting up Edmonds Entertainment Group and producing films such as Soul Food (1997), Josie and the Pussycats (2001), and also the soundtrack for the film The Prince of Egypt (1998), which included contributions from numerous artists, including Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston. They also executive produced the BET reality series College Hill (2004-2009). Edmonds also worked with David Foster to compose "The Power of the Dream", the official song of the 1996 Summer Olympics, performed by superstar Céline Dion. Linda Thompson provided the lyrics.

Babyface also participated as a duet partner on the Fox reality show Celebrity Duets (2006).

Soda Pop Records

Personal life

In 2007, Babyface began dating his backup dancer Nicole "Nikki" Pantenburg (former backup dancer for and personal friend of Janet Jackson). In 2008, Babyface and Nicole welcomed a daughter. The pair married on May 17, 2014.

In 2015, Babyface donated money to the presidential campaign of Republican Senator Marco Rubio.

In 1999, a 25-mile (40-km) stretch of Interstate 65 that runs through Indianapolis was renamed Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds Highway.
