I met this brother on the train several months back. I was like Bilal? lol. We rode the train together and had an interesting conversation. I love his music.
oh shit. so jealous right now. i happy you had this beautiful experience. i can only imagine the amount of positive peaceful energy vibrating off of him.
I thinking of making this the song that me and my wife dance to on our wedding day. This song discribes our relationship to a perfect T. If I could afford it I would love to have him sing it at the recption.
I love this video A LOT! Soul music is deeper than u think people! This guy doesn't get the respect he deserves! Soul Sista and this song here is AMAZING! Love the woman in the video she is gorgeous!
Any man who takes the time and express the beauty of being pregnant in the artistic way Bilal did deserves to be at a million plus views. Especially, when a man is there to sing and rub his seed(s) inside his lady. Major Stock,just went thru the roof for Bilal whereas I am concerned.
this video I miss SO much and the song/album brings back so many good memories, hanging w/my ecclectic group of friends and loving life and being in love...down to earth sistas and brotha at their best
Why are'nt the outstanding video's sky rocketing through the roof ? While starving artist like Bilal , who not only have prolific messages, yet and still somehow or another are not getting their just due ? Are our video's getting flagged ? These fly by night artist don't hold a candle to Bilal.
he recorded an album called "Love For Sale" a few years ago, but it was shelved. however, you can find it on various p2p networks and it's definitely worth the search.
One of the hottest albums ever. I was about 17 or 18 when it dropped and I fell out of love with mainstream HIP HOP/ R&B and feel in love with NEO SOUL! Bilal was one of my favorite artists. We need more of this music and less of the garbage thats flooding the market know.
Yo man, dude is extremely talented. He was originally going to work on soundtracks because of his classical and jazz background. But I am truly glad someone wanted him to sing on his own music. We always say we miss Bilal and D' Angelo. Well what about calling these radio stations and requesting for their music. I am from Houston and I do it all the time. These musicans need us like we need them. Just an up-and-coming producer throwing his heart felt thoughts into this wishing well. Wake up!
Drugs have been the downfall of many talented artist,Bilal was an amazin voaclist His first album wasa masterpiece,he just was not consistent enouh,drug addiction takes away you're motivation,I hope for the best for the brother,we need that ginuine soul, jazz and funk sound that Bilal meshed together so well
How you figure he's on drugs is beyond reason he's a father a husband a an artist who is maybe beyond your comprehension therefore you label him a drug addict shame shame shame on you.
there was nothin to do with drugs, it was his label who delayed and shelfed his album as they saw little commerical success with it, even tho had been recordin it for 3years. He is releasin a new album this year on a small label, it seems similar to what happend with artist like fiona apple who had massive critically acclaimed albums but the music company preferd crap like j-lo for a quick profit instead of releasin great albums.
Too bad Bilal likes to ride that white horse weaving his way through constellations, the beast with a thousand eyes has him in its powdery grasp sinking like qicksand
my nigga bilal on blow. i didnt know that shit. On a serious I prayed for my girl amy winehouse and I pray for my nigga B. I wish yall both well. will some please post "sometimes"
Bilal is underrated in the mass media, but he's on Everybody's shit! Jay Z, Common, Solange, The Game-- he's on a lot of 2008 albums as a background Artist.
i saw bilal in concert in SF this summer...late august...and he was real good. he cut off the locs but he looks pretty much the same otherwise. He didn't sing much off this album, but his voice is amazin and he's real entertainin...
Now i just wanna get a Co sign from any fans of em out there...He was part of the "Boys" old kid group right? i remember hearing that on B.e.t in like 2002 sometime n buggin off that...
This is song is the BOMB!!! I love it!!!!! It's so sad that the radio don't play this stuff. He's done stuff for D'Angelo, Raphael, Roots, everybody. The boy is tough.
me either. i typed in bilal and saw a vid for this. mike city produced this joint and it was my fav on his cd just as the mike city produced song for usher's 8701 album..
yyyeeeaa When Will u Call ... i forgot about that one.. luv that one 2... man bilal need a new album, d'angelo need a new album... we got 2 support our artist n good music.. keep Dwele, Musiq, A. Hamilton n voices like that goin.. Get these albums.. n send a message to the record companies n radio stations
Bilal is just pure talent that we need to get back to. His words does exactly what he said they would do (listen to the beginning of his album, First Born Second).
For of you who didn't know, Bilal was an opera singer before his album came out. COME BACK TO US BILAL, WE ARE NEEDING ANOTHER BANGIN RECORD FROM YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EXACTLY!...wake up world. What artist today can sing opera in 7 languages!...and Love for Sale is a true continuation of his gift as an artist...I play it almost as much as 1st Born Second.
there is another albumn called Love for Sale it was leaked on the internet but the label never officially dropped it....check it out on imeem...It is a true testament to how gifted he is
I admire pure music i think he deserves more than this man especially how his album leaked, t-pain busy using that synthesiser and he making millions how does that work.

I had a feeling that he was a Muslim. And what's funny is that this song now reminds me of Muslim people--after the fact that I hadn't heard it since around 2002 or '03.
Bilal is like a throwback...just down home good music... that you can play in the bedroom or at a barbeque...its the type of music you can see yourself listening to when your fifty talking about those were the days.. to bad people really don't know him...
