May 10, 2022LA Reid & Babyface who started in the group "The Deele" left the group in 1988 to start producing on their own. The Deele cut 3 albums for SOLAR! Same label as Midnight Star! LA & Babyface co-wrote "Don't Be Cruel! Teddy Riley, Aaron Hall, LA & Babyface all did work on the Don't Be Cruel album. I suppose Don't Be Cruel isn't really New Jack Swing yet but if it isn't it almost is.... Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis was also part of the SOLAR label who, by the way, produced Control in 1986. If you listen closely to the Don't Be Cruel album it almost sounds like it could've been produced by Jam & Lewis - kinda has an SOS Band and/or The Time vibe to it. Another "New Jack Swing" pioneer Gene Griffin produced Bobby Brown's "My Prerogative"!
