    It sounds crazy but as legendary as the great Charlie Wilson is, and with his amazingly unique and strong voice, even he couldn’t have done with Weak what Coko and SWV did with it. It’s one of the greatest vocal performances I’ve ever heard on a song. An absolute timeless classic that will never die. Thank you SWV and Brian Alexander Morgan!

      That's because Charlie Wilson is one of inspiring voices of the vocal styling of New Jack Swing. Charlie influenced Aaron Hall. Aaron Hall along with TeddyRiley production was the blueprint for RKelly, Jodeci, etc. New Jack Swing became Hip Hop Soul with Mary, SWV leading the charge for the women.

I WILL BE PURCHASING THEIR NEW CD 'STILL" ON FEBRUARY 5TH. I know all too well about them back problems. My Lord! So as much as I would love for the show to return & see them tour I can relate/UNDERSTAND the back pain that keep Coco from the show and touring. No one would truly understand back pain unless they are experiencing them also.

    • @mikeharris468
