Anthony Hamilton
Hailing from Charlotte, North Carolina, Anthony Hamilton began singing in church
and local talent shows before moving to New York in the early 1990s and signing
with Uptown Records. After the label folded, he bounced to MCA and released his
debut album XTC in 1996. Sporting a classic vocal style different from
the neo-soul crooners who were then coming into vogue, the LP got good reviews
but failed to generate much hype. He soon started writing songs for artists like
Donell Jones, toured with D'Angelo and sang on records by Eve and Tupac, among
others. He finally hit the big-time in 2002 after teaming up with Nappy Roots
for their single "Po' Folks" and earning a Grammy nomination in the process.
Hamilton then hooked up with Jermaine Dupri, who signed him to So So Def and
produced his next album.
