Trevor's Album Of The Week is 'Still Ghetto' by US R&B singer Jaheim, released in 2002.

Trevor's Album of the Week is Still Ghetto by US R&B singer Jaheim, which was released in 2002.

Trevor's Album Of The Week is 'Still Ghetto' by Jaheim.
A multi-talented artist, Jaheim is most famous for his R&B vocals, although he has also rapped, modelled, and acted. 
His second album, 'Still Ghetto', was released at the tail end of 2002. Another Top Ten hit, it placed two singles in the Top 40, "Fabulous" and "Anything." 'Ghetto Classics' followed in early 2006 (Valentine's Day, to be exact) and became his first number one album. 
Jaheim's considerable vocal talents only increased during the recording of this second album, and a stronger set of songs made it a definite improvement on his debut. Better yet, Jaheim takes the loverman persona to another level, devoting more songs here to relationships than love itself.

Series contrasting original genuine soul with contemporary hip-hop and neo-R&B. Tonight's playlist features Lionel Richie , Black Men United and new acts, with an album spotlight on the 2002 album Still Ghetto by US neo-R&B singer Jeheim. Repeated on Saturday at 2am
