Christopher Williams I'm Dreamin' off the New Jack City soundtrack and his album Changes. CLASSIC SONG it's too bad artists dont make music like this anymore!
@Rodney Norman.... I can't. Typically, I don't laugh at things, but that was a funny response. People born in the mid/ late 70s, early 80s MADE 90s MUSIC!! That's why MUSIC was good. We had OUR parents MUSIC from the 70s to listen. BAM!!
@@md4111 I'm in my seventies and have grandkids in their twenties. My age is proudly displayed out there for the WORLD to see. This serves to prove what i know of that Golden Age of Beautiful music, compared to today's obscene vulgarity.
Wesley's Nino Brown character is legendary... I would love to see a sequel to New Jack City... But I want them to use 90's jamz again tho... None of that new trash!!! 😉😉😉💯💯💯
Man this man can sing. You don't hear that rich beautiful baritone sound like his on the radio anymore . He is a mix between Micheal McDonald and Teddy Pendigrass. I'm a singer and he's a singers singer. When you hear them sing with that rich tone ..you say damn you better sing! 🤔
I thought this WAS Teddy!!! I was a kid when this came out so I never really listened to the artists names when the songs came on the radio. Usually you could tell their voice. But you nailed it. Teddy and Mike McDonald. I just remembered randomly that I loved this song and came to look it up.
I can't even explain how much i enjoyed and miss the 90s. Being born in 77, i was the perfect age in 1990. We got to experience the 80s and all that came with. A few of my friends from that era have passed, so i listen to these songs and think of all the fun we had.
I was born in 87, making me a TRUE 90s kid who enjoyed this music as a kid. These hits stayed on repeat even with the 2000s kicking off in my teenage years. I often think of how it would have been to be a teen or young adult in the 90s!!!
And a PK (preachers kid) too? I know all the church women - young and old - was thirsty for that Fine Young Thing! Nibble Nibble on him!! I bet he was like a big pack of chewing gum in church - That’s pass around Pack! LOL
I was 6 when this came out....grown ass man now, but I wish THIS was my era....going to the club with colorful ass suits, dancing to New Jack Swing with a fly girl from Living Color type chick.
Kim Martin The problem with music today is that they don't have any creativity whatsoever. At least with hip-hop music in the 80's and 90's, even though they sampled beats from other artists in the past (James Brown, Rick James, the Isley Brothers among others) they put their own spin to satisfy their own artists. Today hip hop samples the same beats which is usually crappy and not worth listening.
+Kim Martin You know what, there's a new kid from Sydney, Australia bringing this style back. He calls it Neo-Swing. His name is Mike Champion. His album Young Boy, Old Soul is super dope. I'm 32, so I grew up rockin' to New Jack Swing with my cousins that were 11 and 15 years older than me. This era's music was the ishhhh for real!
I'll never forget the girl in my 8th grade home room class, who was obsessed with Christopher Williams back in '92-'93. She use to bring his posters to class & kiss them! Carla girl I'm here because of you lol!
To have been brought up in the 80s-90s era was a privilege hands DOWN!!!! Those were the days and I will never forget the timeless music that came along with living in those golden days!!
Remember when you used to buy soundtracks to movies? Most times the soundtrack was hotter. Not in this case though because movie and music instant classic!
Christopher Williams is a 90’s Gem!! we need to celebrate our black artist for what they’ve contributed to the culture. Not w8 til they’re deaths to realize they’re brilliance. Thx Christopher.....this toast is to you baby🎊🍾🥂🎉
@@benbestfriendfranciscocasc3103 Why bring that up tho? The point is that he is a talented artist with an impeccable voice that he was born with. Whatever mistakes he made in his past has nothing to do with us here listening to his music today. Y'all always trying to remind people of someone's dark past.....just stop it already.
Bro, why does this song make me feel so nostalgic? I was born in 1986, so I wasn't even grown when the movie and this song came out, but the nostalgia, man 🥲
I remember it as if it was yesterday...the 90's,, where just about every song was a hit, every artist had talent, urban movies /tv shows were good, and let's not forget about the hightop fade + the dances, Def Comedy Jam...God I miss the 90's. 🤗
I am here because of Gene Deal. I didn't know Christopher Williams made this song. I heard this song plenty of times throughout the years on my local radio station 94.3 WYBC and in the movie New Jack City.
Kim Martin don't you dare judge me I don't know who you are and if you're using this person YT account, but make your own and troll somewhere else peace and blessings loser! blocked.
Damn, that is one good-looking man 💯 I have loved that song ever since he made it! I was mesmerized and didn't pay too much attention to the song! I know all of the words, but that body 😮. This is coming from a 68, soon to be 69 year old. I love music and always have 💯
I miss it too!! So many artist, so much music still!! The music scene of today sucks EGGS!! For real YO! 60's 70's 80's 90's then it all died... Like the song says "The day the Music had died" Bye, Bye Ms. American Pie - LOL!
He is toooooooo fine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT A GORGEOUS MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!so sad what happened to him...I pray for his speedy recovery!!!!!!!! What a GIFTED MAN. HIS VOICE IS BEYOND THIS WORLD...REMINDS YOU OF TEDDY PENDEGAST......
New Jack Swing era needed a longer run. It really did. Man, if you were born in the 60's to early 80's you had a time. If you were born in the early 60's you were around 30 when this dropped and were doing so some things.
THIS SONG WAS BEAUTIFULLY DONE !!!! IT SHOWS THE MORE HAPPIER SLOWER MOMENTS OF THE NEW JACKS.. WHEN I HEAR THIS SONG OR SEE THE VIDEO ...I THINK OF THE MANY HAPPIER MOMENTS IN MY LIFE!¡!!! AGAIN THIS SONG WAS BEAUTIFULLY DONE!!! DESIGNED FOR THE REALITY OF TRUE HAPPINESS!!!
Man how I would’ve loved to grow up in the 90s man… they truly were rocking!! So stylish, people actually dancing having a good time! No drama, no cell phones, natural interaction with people!! I’ll give anything to experience that!
In the 1990's I was in my 20's. Let me tell you that the new jack swing era was the greatest music to vibe to. Especially in the summer, It was perfect harmony. It was a pleasure to have been a part of that decade.
Just saw Christopher Williams on Unsung last night. Great performer with an interesting backstory. Talented actor as well, underrated vocalist of the 90s.
Man, this was the height of my DJ'ing days. What a time. The babes, the love, the music. Now all my vinyl sits quietly in their album sleeves. But I'm going to break it out this summer and start mixing me up some non-stop CD's. Drop the top and cruise into the sunset...
GRIND ETHIKS MIXTAPE SHOW Hell no! I got tired of packing all that wax, turntables, amps and speakers all over the place. Setup, breakdown, drunk ass people bumping the 12's... nahh... I'm done. Now I just enjoy all that music by myself. :)
I'm mad jealous of anyone that spent their 21 and up years in the 90s like my moms n dad. They have mad stories, pics n videotape of their 20s. Crazy! Clubbing in the best era of Hip Hop, with this New Jack Swing sound flowing heavy, Raggae, ballads......the infancy of TLC, BBD, Guy, Jodeci, BIG, Jay Z, Mary J Blige, SWV, etc etc..Movies like New Jack City, Love Jones, Love n BBall, Boys in the Hood, Menace, etc etc, A young Halle Berry n Denzel!! Dafuq?!!! C'mon. Pops told me about the Greek picnics, in Philly n NY, the Freaknic in ATL, the Bike shows... crazy!! Y'all mfs even were witnessing the Mikes in their prime, anyone Tyson, Jordan, Jackson....word to Biggie. I peeped the drip also, Tommy Hilfiger, Coogi, Cross Colors, Overalls with 1 strap down, biker shorts, Polo, J's, Karl Kani, Pelle Pelle.....pops had the Gumby, the kid n play haircuts.....y'all mfs had Martin n Def Comedy Jam n NY Undercover......damn!!! Fuck y'all 4real. I was born 20 years too late, on gawd.
I'm 48....AND still can do the Same dance ...I did back in 1991 when *New JACK City* was out...am I....My brothers Keeper. 😂🤣🤣🤣*After 4 kids....u wouldn't know 😋 *Its 2018....I'm Still Here! Ahhhhhh
Ikr ? My personal style is influenced by this movie. (The black turtleneck with chain) I hate this millennial generation. -_- easily offended by everything, scared to push boundaries, trap music, fortnite, regurgitated 80s beats, no innovation, obsession with social media. Smh.

Wow, hard to believe it’s been almost 30 years since New Jack City. I enjoyed Christopher Williams unsung, it’s always good to hear how our singers from back in the day are doing. He still sounds great. Blessings to you all.
I would like to take this time to thank God for having allowed me to be a 90s kid!!!

Straight facts, beautiful voice he has. He was the total package. Sad they didn't see it.

Perfectly said!! HEAVY voice with broad RANGE and STRENGTH!
I think you worded it perfectly he sounds exactly like a blend of them both, I can't unhear it now lol
Yeah he is a mixture of them I never that of that maybe those were his idols
I miss baritone singers. Wish we had more in this generation
New Jack City is always what comes to mind when I hear this. That’s one of the most underrated soundtracks
Yeah sung by the "Educated Brother" via Nino Brown lol!

Underrated where? When this came out people went crazy over it. I was there and it was a whole moment.

Christopher Williams needs to be featured on "Unsung" because someone with his talent should have gone further in the music business.
He is on there
@Chauntel bland i totally agree with you brother because truthfully speaking..this dude could really sing,his CD "Changes" is a CLASSIC!
I feel the same! What a voice I remember when Stephanie Mills introduced him at he concert, what a night.
Chauntel Bland that man had/has a voice!!!
Because he did't get the recognition he deserved, among others in this time.

Hell no! I got tired of packing all that wax, turntables, amps and speakers all over the place. Setup, breakdown, drunk ass people bumping the 12's... nahh... I'm done. Now I just enjoy all that music by myself. :)
You ever make a mix and if so where can I get a copy?
We need you back +Junkman2000
You can always hire a crew to set things up and break things down.
I'm mad jealous of anyone that spent their 21 and up years in the 90s like my moms n dad. They have mad stories, pics n videotape of their 20s. Crazy! Clubbing in the best era of Hip Hop, with this New Jack Swing sound flowing heavy, Raggae, ballads......the infancy of TLC, BBD, Guy, Jodeci, BIG, Jay Z, Mary J Blige, SWV, etc etc..Movies like New Jack City, Love Jones, Love n BBall, Boys in the Hood, Menace, etc etc, A young Halle Berry n Denzel!! Dafuq?!!! C'mon. Pops told me about the Greek picnics, in Philly n NY, the Freaknic in ATL, the Bike shows... crazy!! Y'all mfs even were witnessing the Mikes in their prime, anyone Tyson, Jordan, Jackson....word to Biggie. I peeped the drip also, Tommy Hilfiger, Coogi, Cross Colors, Overalls with 1 strap down, biker shorts, Polo, J's, Karl Kani, Pelle Pelle.....pops had the Gumby, the kid n play haircuts.....y'all mfs had Martin n Def Comedy Jam n NY Undercover......damn!!! Fuck y'all 4real. I was born 20 years too late, on gawd.

@@buttarain27 but is it really that or something else, like a disease? :(
I'm here because I remember this era

Being a kid, living in Alaska and parents playing this over and over..❤
New Jack City was a dope movie and soundtrack
I'm listening to it now
Back then, u had to have the movie on vcr tape and the soundtrack on cassette
*I was born in the wrong time* I love everything about the 90s and late 80s the clothes, music, parties.....
Ikr ? My personal style is influenced by this movie. (The black turtleneck with chain) I hate this millennial generation. -_- easily offended by everything, scared to push boundaries, trap music, fortnite, regurgitated 80s beats, no innovation, obsession with social media. Smh.
If you like this music you need to check out my New Jack Swing Mix
