18 Dec Charlie Wilson – Just Charlie | Album Review

Not many people know that Charlie Wilson is one my very favourite singers ever. He inspired early '90s R&B vocalists such as Aaron Hall and R. Kelly with his musical output from the '70s and '80s alongside his brothers in the magnificent Gap Band. Since the turn of the century, he has made appearances on music by The Neptunes, Snoop Dogg and most recently with Kanye West. On the whole I have enjoyed his feature appearances. His album releases have unfortunately not impressed me half as much; Charlie, Last Name Wilson and Uncle Charlie haven’t touched me anywhere near his earlier output. I’m sorry to say, Just Charlie is a continuation of my yearning for a return to an Uncle Charlie that resembles his former self.
