Video: Johnny Gill - 1991 Interview With MTV Japan For Self Titled LP


Although you won't truly know the power of Johnny's music until you sit and absorb his studio recordings in full, this VHS rip of his interview with MTV Japan in 1990 serves as an introduction into Johnny's influential presence as one of R&B/New Jack Swing's leading talents.

For his 1990 self-titled LP on Motown Records, the New Edition member struck the music scene with energetic songs that can rock a dance floor 'til this day such as "Rub You The Right Way" and "Fairweather Friend", sounds which virtually helped define the sound of New Jack Swing. His love ballads remain as classics while providing a groove like none other through outstanding vocal talent paired with greats of production, from the La & Babyface-written "My, My, My" to the incredibly smooth "Lady Dujour" written and produced by Jam & Lewis. The sound of music has since changed, but one things for certain is Johnny's aura on recordings is one in a million as one of R&B's most timeless voices.

Enjoy this feature interview for Johnny's 1990 album as an in-depth look at one of the greatest talents of R&B to emerge from the background of Gospel singing, Motown Records and the wing of legendary production teams La & Babyface and Flyte Time. Hear Johnny perform live plus speak about each song on the album with additional interviews with Jam & Lewis as they speak on working with the young superstar.
