Artist of the Week: Musiq Soulchild

Blending Soul, Funk and Hip-Hop, Musiq Soulchild has coined the twist of music that most musicians rarely have. His one of a kind music style is very well received that one week after the release of his album “Luvanmusiq”, Billboard Hot 200 crowned it at the highest spot. The album was sold 149,000 copies in the first week and consequently broke the 100,000 perimeter that has haunted US albums sales for four consecutive weeks. At the same time, his first single titled “B.U.D.D.Y." constantly placing itself in the Top 5 of Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop chart for 16 weeks while scoring the airplay gainer. Through “B.U.D.D.Y.” he reintroduced the 'soul' part of him that he had abandoned for more than 5 years. He finally deserves to be called the 'child of soul' again.
