Whether introduced via cassette, CD's or digital download, for most of us 90's R&B provided the soundtrack to our lives, from childhood and young adult life, good times and hard times, falling in love, heartbreak, weddings, vacations, losing loved ones, and of so much more. That 90's Vibe celebrates the artists, songwriters, and producers that made us fall in love with 90's R&B music. This book is a journey that delves into the stories behind some of the biggest 90's R&B songs, from newcomers like Jodeci and H-Town, En Vogue and Destiny's Child; to established hitmakers like Michel Jackson, Barry White, New Edition and Aretha Franklin. This book traces R&B's evolution throughout the decade, from the new jack era to the rise of neo-soul and beyond, highlighting some of the lesser-known stories and relationships behind the songwriting, performance, and production excellence that made the 1990's the last great decade of R&B music.

Author, Attorney and Entrepreneur, A. J. Tavares is an award-winning writer of music history and reference books. The Washington D.C. native gained an appreciation for music via exposure to the diverse D.C. music scene of the 1980's and 90's which was filled with vibrant Hip-hop, Go-Go, Rock and Punk communities. He spent the latter part of the 1990's travelling the U.S., soaking up the various musical styles and collecting stories about the popular songs and artists from each region. Twenty years later, in the throngs of the 90's R&B resurgence he decided to research and update the stories and publish them. That 90's Vibe, Stories From the Last Great Decade of R&B is the first of his R&B book series.
