Album Notes

IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE ITS BEEN 3 YEARS SINCE THE EPIC R&B/SOUTHERN SOUL CD, "TIME SERVED" HIT THE RADIO AND DOMINATED THE CHARTS AND AIRPLAY FOR THE NEXT 2 YEARS. BUT OMAR CUNNINGHAM IS BACK WITH A NEW ALBUM TITLED "GROWING PAINS" THAT WILL AGAIN DOMINATE THE SOUTHERN SOUL WORLD AND BEYOND. THE NEW CD FEATURES 10 SUPER SOUL LAYERED TRACKS THAT WILL PLEASE SOUTHERN SOUL AND R&B FANS WORLDWIDE. EACH TRACK IS A STANDOUT, SOMETHING OMAR IS NOW FAMOUS FOR. THE LEAD SINGLE IS A SOUL THUMPING GRITTY SONG WITH A HINT OF THE OLD STAX SOUND CALLED "I'M YOUR MAINTENANCE MAN." OMAR, ALREADY ACCLAIMED AS THE BEST SOUL BLUES WRITER AND HE HAS THE AWARDS AND HITS FOR HIMSELF AND OTHER ARTISTS TO PROVE IT, REALLY TAKES THE FEMALE LISTENER ON METAPHORICAL JOY RIDE WITH "MAINTENCE MAN". OMAR GOES FROM GRITTY SOUL TO PLAYFUL R&B WITH THE SOON TO BE CLASSIC, "WHAT YOU WANT WITH MY MOMA TO A HINT OF MOTOWN WITH "I CAN'T MAKE YOU DO RIGHT'. ANOTHER STANDOUT IS THE SMOOTH BUT SERIOUS BALLAD, "IF WE CAN'T GET ALONG" WHICH IS PRIMED FOR MASS AIRPLAY AND URBAN AC APPEAL. OMAR EVEN HAS A TRACK THAT WILL GET THE CLUBS JUMPING WITH "LET ME SEE YOU SHAKE YOUR JELLY." OMAR GET BACK TO HIS SOUL BLUES ROOTS WITH THE TRACKS, "MR. LOWDON", "FIND A GOOD WOMAN" AND "THAT'S A LIE." AND THEN THERE'S THE SUPER LOVE BALLAD, "HERE I AM." YES, OMAR WENT A PERFECT 10 FOR 10 AS HE CLOSED THE CD OUT WITH A INSPIRATIONAL SONG, "GOTTA KEEP", FEATURING LACEE, VICK ALLEN, BIGG ROBB AND LAMORRIS WILLIAMS.
