A soul singer of rare finesse, Kem is blessed with a voice whose warmth and richness are matched by an almost effortless sense of ease and control. The Nashville-born and Detroit-based vocalist has made excellent use of those gifts across the span of gold-selling albums for Motown that began in 2003 when the iconic label picked up Kemistry, Kem’s self-released debut. On plush and emotive ballads like “I Can’t Stop Loving You” and such smooth blends of soul and jazz as the kind he delivers on “You’re On My Mind,” Kem puts a classy yet modern spin on the romantic sounds of Quiet Storm R&B.
