“Above all, Mr. Wilson keeps it light. What a relief! A great singer who knows it’s not all about him”…Ben Ratliff\The New York Times
Nationwide Tour Starts February 12
New York, NY – Charlie Wilson released today his 6th solo album – Forever Charlie as he gears up for his nationwide headlining tour of the same name which kicks off February 12 in Cleveland, OH (see below for all current tour dates).
“Goodnight Kisses” when it was released was the #1 most added song and continues to climb the MediaBase Adult R&B chart; this week it is *12. He wrapped 2014 with two Grammy nominations—Best Rap/Sung Collaboration and Best Rap Song—for Kanye West’s “Bound 2.” Wilson has had a grand total of 18 hits thus far including eight No. 1s, among them “My Love Is All I Have,” “You Are,” “Without You” and “There Goes My Baby.”
Now Wilson brings his heart and soul back to the forefront with Forever Charlie. “If you just want to hug up on your girl, I’ve got those records,” he declares with a laugh. “And if you want to dance, those records are there too. That’s why I call it Forever Charlie—because I’m not ever going anywhere.”
Upcoming TV performances include; The BET Honors (2\23), The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (2\24) and Jimmy Kimmel Live! (3\26). Charlie Wilson’s Who Am I debuts this week on Oprah.com\http://www.oprah.com/own-show/Charlie-Wilsons-Incredible-Life-Journey.
