biography
Philadelphia-born Taalib Johnson, aka burgeoning R&B artist Musiq (Soulchild), grew up the oldest of nine children and did not finish high school. Musiq, whose influences include James Brown, Patti LaBelle, Billie Holiday, and Sly & the Family Stone, participated in Philadelphia's open-mike scene in his early teens. The son of a die-hard '70s soul music fan, Musiq performed at Philly showcases like the Five Spot and Wilhemina's until his management team, Mama's Boys (Jerome Hipps and Michael McArthur), brought him to Def Jam Records' attention. Musiq's debut album, 2000's Aijuswanaseing, was recorded mostly at Touch of Jazz Studios in Philadelphia. Musiq's first single, "Just Friends (Sunny)," appeared on the soundtrack to Nutty Professor II: The Klumps, and two years later Musiq released his second album, the spiritual and personal Juslisen, which debuted at number one on the Billboard R&B/hip-hop charts. The following year brought the widely acclaimed Soulstar, and after moving to Atlantic, Musiq released Luvanmusiq (2007) and OnMyRadio (2008). ~ Kerry L. Smith, All Music Guide

- This brotha is on point, "I love him". Most of the music out today is so mundane. It's about time someone took it to another level...........his music is truly 4thesoul.

Musiq Unplugged

- Man where can i start with Musiq. First and foremost he is the true definition of a soul artist which blends so much type of genres into his music. He is so edgy, smooth, and talented! Its amazing to hear his evolution throughout the years. I clearly remember listenin to his first album back as a little kid and I fell in love with Mary Go Round and his first album aijuswannasing, and ever since then i've been hooked. I can truely say Musiq is one of the most underrated artist in the past 9 years! I would love to see him colabo with some unique artists out there in the game.

What Love Is Missing
-
- By Warrior King 7

- It may be corny, but I give praise to this brother for his style and his honesty within his music. Most people don't understand what I mean when I tell them I am a die-hard Hopeless Romantic, but I just have to reference "Love," or "Greatest Love" from his first and fourth album to give proof to my "theory" that a man can be a Hopeless Romantic. His music makes you wish that the love he sings of in his songs could be shared on a regular basis between yourself and another. The kind of love that fairy tales and happy endings are made of. Musiq Soulchilds songs are what Love itself is missing in todays world.
