May 16th we recognize two birthdays in music and they have a connection.
Janet Jackson was born May 16, 1966.
Here is her video for the song "Alright" from her "Rhythm Nation 1814" album released way back when she was 23 and this video featuring appearances from three dearly departed performers, Cab Calloway and The Nicholas Brothers, Fayard and Harold.
And Ralph Tresvant was born May 16, 1968.
Here is his solo hit song away from his group New Edition. "Sensitivity"
What is the connection between these artists? Not only do Janet Jackson and Ralph Tresvant share a birthday, they also had their greatest solo successes produced by the team of Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
Happy Birthday Janet and Ralph!
