Avant Artist Snapshot:

The cousin of R. Kelly, Avant (born Myron Avant) is an urban contemporary singer and songwriter. Avant struck gold with his 1998 single, "Separated," which cracked the top of Billboard's R&B charts. His 2000 debut full-length, MY THOUGHTS, was produced by Steve Huff and released on Magic Johnson's label Magic Johnson Music. The album set the template for Avant's modern soul sound, which bears resemblences to R Kelly's, a sound refined on subsequent albums such as 2002's ECSTACY and 2006's DIRECTOR. Avant signed with Capitol for his 2008 self-titled release, which spawned the Top 20 R&B single "Break Ya Back."

Title Note

This is an Enhanced audio CD which contains regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.

Personnel includes: Avant (vocals); Steve Huff (various instruments, bass, programming); Charles "Al" Willis (guitar); Ketara Wyatt (background vocals).

Engineers include: Rob, Steve "Stone" Huff, Larry Strum.

Recorded at Streeterville, Batcave, Battery Studio and Chicago Recording Company, Chicago, Illinois.

This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.

The first artist signed to Magic Johnson's label deal with MCA Records, MY THOUGHTS is also Avant's debut album. "Separated" is an energetic, passionate song about a love gone wrong which is pretty much the album's theme, rooted in the ups and downs of love, and Avant uses his dynamic voice to clearly rise above these perfectly positioned tracks.

Produced by Steve "Stone" Huff, the album is rare in today's R&B scene, in that Huff is the sole producer. This means there's a refreshing consistency to all the tracks. Besides lacing the songs with his silky vocal delivery, Avant also co-writes ten of the cuts here. Some of the highlights of MY THOUGHTS are "Reaction," "Let's Make a Deal," and "Serious." Overall, a very well-rounded and polished sounding debut.
