Artist: Anthony Hamilton

Over that last year, I have seen my iTunes library slowly become inundated with electronic music, a shift from the hip hop heavy existence it was used to. But I don't think that is due to a true change in my musical preference, but rather a change in the industry. The music scene is being [...]

Anthony Hamilton's Comin' From Where I'm From [2003] is one of my favorite records. I used to drive around in my Chevy blasting "Mama Knew Love" and "Cornbread, Fish & Collard Greens." There was a fantastic and intriguing review from Matt Cibula in PopMatters , in which he argued that it was not only the best R&B record of 2003, but also the best country record. Definitely worth a read. It was frustrating that Sony put an extremely restrictive copyright protection on the CD, so I couldn't rip it to my iPod or [...]

After a three year hiatus, Hamilton returns with an inspired performance. Unfortunately, too often his producers don't seem as committed. In the mid-2000s, Anthony Hamilton was positioned as something of a male counter to Erykah Badu's feral femininity. With his southern affectations and distinctly masculine vocals, Hamilton played as a stark contrast to the majority of male R&B performers at the time, and his personalized subject matter only made that distinction more clear. He was a refreshing enough performer that the six years he spent floating in the ephemera that is the world of independent...

Anthony Hamilton's appeal isn't only his raspy strong warm voice, which he's applied to songs of wistful soul longing to great effect. It's also the Grammy winner's clear devotion to packing real quality and feeling into his music. The only fluff here is maybe in your pillows before you lie back and enjoy the ear-massaging groove. It's nice mostly smooth sailing on Back To Love (RCA) with a few electric jolts scattered throughout. Hamilton desires and lusts and aches but is a refined, restrained gentleman who doesn't need to get vulgar to make a [...]

Anthony Hamilton has returned with a new album entitled Back To Love . Dear Lord, the topic of love will never go away but it's okay because the artists do it justice with their multi-minute sonic pieces. Back To Love features many highlights and makes for a solid effort. However, we can't get over how oddly familiar the Keri Hilson-assisted "Never Let Go" sounds like Beyoncé's "Halo." One of the tracks, "Pray For Me," has us cooing on point. The soft song with the beautiful melody has Hamilton in a state of asking for forgiveness, a second [...]

How about a Anthony Hamilton remix! Soul music was never my thing but I don't think anyone out there could not have liked " Comin' Where I'm From ". Tumblewoof gives his biggest hit " Charlene " a remix, an unexpected but pleasant surprise. The tempo has been turned up a few notches but you can still feel Anthony Hamilton's energy in the hook. Love the beat, he turned a pretty down and blue song into an energetic mix. A big shout out to Tumblewoof . Definitely go check out his other work [...]

More Anthony Hamilton records continue to surface and I have not the first clue where it's from. At this point, something is better than nothing and as long as he's releasing music in some form, I'll just be thankful for that. "My Friend" is slow, reflective and soulful - three components which have always defined the uniqueness of Ant's output. The crooner harks back upon a past relationship which fizzled out for whatever reasons, but said person's return appears like nothing short of a gift from the heavens. It's just that good, wholesome, [...]

I took a poetry class in college once and my professor forbade us from writing about high school love because, quite frankly, nobody gives a sh*t about it except for people actually still in high school. As we get older, high stories do lose a bit of relevance and luster, but Anthony Hamilton manages to pull off the high school love story with his new tune, "High School Love." The track is nostalgic and heartfelt, making it appealing to the grown-ups, too. It sounds a bit odd to hear such a deep voice [...]

Finally. Finally. Finally. At last, we've are hands on some if not totally new, 100% unreleased, unheard music from our man Anthony Hamilton. Back in '08 AH dropped the excellent The Point Of It All and has been, aside from a feature here and there, totally silent. "Why Oh Why" is that classic Hamilton sound, a powerful but somber vocal on top a classic modern r&b instrumental. (Real shit). Get re-connected with Mr. Hamilton below.
