Musiq

American R&B, soul, funk, alternative, blues, jazz and hip hop artist Musiq (birth name Taalib Johnson) was born on September 16, 1977, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S. He left home at 17. It was during that time he started to build a reputation for being musically gifted, beat boxing for MC's, free styling on the open mic circuit, scatting at a jazz club, or just performing a cappella in the streets of Philadelphia, which is where he got the name "Musiq" and later added "Soulchild", which is intended to respect and represent the legacy and traditions of past soul artists. He cites as his inspiration such icons as Stevie Wonder, James Brown, Patti LaBelle, Billie Holiday, Sly & the Family Stone and Ray Charles. And now, you may download Musiq's one of the most successful album, Juslisen, in mp3 from our site. This album was nominated for "R&B Album of the Year" at the 2003 Grammy Awards.
