Tank


I have the pleasure of seeing Tank in a front row seat many years ago. The details are fuzzy because it was so long ago but he came down and performed in a play at my school- Hampton University. I loved Tank back in the day (those muscles!) and thought he was crazy underrated. I still think he is for how talented he is. 

He is a great writer- great voice- plays the piano. I have a few songs in the playlist. 

Starting with Please Don't Go. I remember they played this one of the radio a lot. Beautifully sung but I sure hope his girl went....


Next up, I Hate U. I always forget about this song until I start listening. It kinda sounds like it could be a Jamie Foxx song (makes sense cause Tank wrote a few songs for Foxx.). 



I'm the Reason is beautiful. I wish he would do a live version of this song. I think it would be fire. There really aren't enough of his live performance on the tube.


I Can't Make You Love Me might be my favorite. It's a remake and has been redone by many artists. This is my favorite. Stripped down with just the lyrics and piano. If you've ever been in this type of situation ship this song will hit hard.


Next up, Emergency. I love this song..and the video. I don't know why his shirt is off, but I'm glad it is 😂 I'm about to go start it from the beginning again. 


Some of his songs make me think he must be a serial cheater....still a bop though. Maybe he deserves? 



Last song- Slowly. So underrated.  The shirt, pants, chains, is so early 2000's. I love it. I get so confused though because this song sounds just like a Jamie Foxx song- but it's not. They really have the same signing style and song vibe. Wild.



Anyway... that's all for Tank. I'm about to go and zone out and replay this list.
