Alexander O’Neal – Criticize
Securing his name in the R&B history books, Alexander O’Neal is one of the genres most iconic names. With chart smash ‘Criticize’ lighting up dance floors across the world twenty five years after its release, his sound has transcended generations.
Originally released in 1987 from his album ‘Hearsay’ this week sees the single back in the UK charts once more. Currently appearing on Channel 5’s Celebrity Big Brother, last night saw Alex perform the hit to the Nation proving his voice still has the ability to transcend generations.
Signed by Prince to Warner Records back in the early days as part of ‘The Time’ his journey in and out of various band formations propelled him to be the solo artist that we best know him for today.
American born, Alexander O’Neal has created a cult appreciation across the globe. His back catalogue transporting his singles in to the UK and Billboard top tens as well as a triple platinum selling album and ever expanding discography.
With his heart firmly in the music industry and a loyalty to the thousands that still buy his records, O’Neal’s passion to keep his sound alive is ever present.
With work already started on a brand new album and a busy touring schedule planned, 2015 is set to be a groundbreaking year for the soul man.
