Carl Thomas
While it seems that Bad Boy is falling apart all around him, Carl Thomas may be the artist that can save it. The Chicago native is best known for lacing two popular rap tracks with his sultry vocals - Biggie's "The World Is Filled With Pimps and Hoes, " and the remix of Puffy's "Been Around the World." Even when competing with the throbbing tracks and the personalities rapping over them, Thomas' voice stood out. His newest single, "I Wish," comes off his long-awaited debut album, due this summer. It's the kind of soul you've probably been wishing for for a long time - it's insistent, infused with the kind of raw emotion and distinctive vocals that make for music that takes a hold of you and refuses to let you forget it.

While Thomas is mysterious about his current love life, (we do know he's left Chicago behind to take up residence in Brooklyn) he has plenty to say about love.
