"Christmas Musiq" sees the multi-platinum superstar putting his unique stamp on such seasonal staples as "Jingle Bells," "O Holy Night," and "The First Noel." The collection follows 2008's acclaimed "Onmyradio" and 2007's RIAA gold-certified Atlantic debut, "Luvanmusiq," which debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200.
Musiq � who was recently nominated as "Best Male R&B/Soul Male" at this year's Soul Train Music Awards � is currently hard at work on his much-anticipated sixth album. The as-yet-untitled collection � which features production from chart-topping songwriter/producer Jack Knight (Diddy, Keyshia Cole, Mario Winans) � is slated for release in 2010.
Inspired by such icons as Stevie Wonder, James Brown, and Ray Charles, Musiq made a blockbuster debut right out of the gate with 2000's acclaimed "Aijuswanaseing." Fueled by the breakthrough singles, "Just Friends (Sunny)" and "Love," the album went on to earn RIAA platinum for sales exceeding 1 million. In addition, Musiq was honored with a number of awards, including Billboard Music Awards for "Best New Artist," "Top R&B Artist," "Top R&B Male," and "Top R&B Single" (for "Love"); the Soul Train Music Award for "Best R&B/Soul Single" (for "Love"); and the ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Award for "Top R&B/Hip-Hop Song" (for "Love"). Further nominations came from the Grammy Awards, American Music Awards, The Source Awards, BET Awards, and NAACP Awards.
