Jaheim has been off the scene since 2007. Now, he's back with a new album, Another Round ,which will hit stores February 9. He's got a new look(he cut his braids)- glad to see he made the change. His latest single "Ain't Leaving Without You" samples De La Soul's 1991 classic "Ring, Ring, Ring(Ha Ha Hey)."
One thing about good talent is, regardless of how long of a hiatus an artist takes, we never forget a song that captured their essence. Jaheim blasted on the scene in 2001 with his smooth soulful sound and has had hits such as "Anything", "Just In Case" and "Put That Woman First". He's released four albums since his debut. Three which included the word 'Ghetto" in the album titles, his debut Ghetto Love; Still Ghetto and Ghetto Classics. In 2007, he left the ghetto moniker behind when he released The Makings of A Man.
In 2009, Jaheim returns with the distinct voice he's known for, and an uptempo joint that will definitely have you doing a two-step. The first single "Ain't Leaving Without You" from his forthcoming album samples De La Soul's 1991 single "Ring Ring Ring (Ha Ha Hey)" . This track is produced by Kay Gee of Naughty By Nature fame and written by Lady And A Tramp (they co-wrote 4 and produced 2 tracks off of the album), Balewa Mohammed (The Clutch), & E. Laues.
Look for Jaheim's album to hit stores February 2010.
