      I don't think he was underated, but he was by no means over rated either.
      He had a lot of success, and a huge fan base across the world. He was big here in the UK, as were his stablemates, The S.O.S. Band.

      ​​​@@hermanmunster3358. I don't know if I would call Alexander O'Neal and the S.O.S. Band "stablemates". More likely "labelmates", with "TABU Records" in Minneapolis. Alex is only actually listed "album credit-wise" with S.O.S. Band on background vocals (along with Cherrelle) on the 1986 single "The Finest". Alexander O'Neal was more of a "protege" with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis=Flyte Tyme, and of course his primo 80s-90s solo work.

You Identified with it... Back in the 80's when we had Thursday Night "Ladies Night"... Man, every Club was PACKED... SMH!!!... I grew up in New Orleans and from Thursday thru Sunday the Social Night Life was "On and Poppin".... New Orleans hosted the "Worlds Fair Exposition in 1984"... Alex and Cherrelle were at the TOP of the charts then... this was the PEAK of the 80's Music Scene.... We will NEVER have Music like that AGAIN.... RIP 80's

He had a lot of great songs and albums. As soon as my family has Thanksgiving dinner. The first Christmas CD I play is "My Gift To You." I play it to New Years. The BEST Christmas Album EVER.

      I don’t think we have the singers or the songwriters anymore. So called Hip Hop culture has devoured songwriters and we already know what they’re about. Auto tunes and butt shots. The state of that culture is 👎 . I mean it has its place - the artists have to reflect their times but how about the transcendent qualities, the good/the God in us. There is still greatness in some Hip Hop artists like Kendrick Lamar but mostly the pretty or pleasing in R&Bis done and the latter certainly gave birth to the former. I guess it’s because the creatives are from down situations or thumbs down people or the industry just hates Black love and excellence. Idk. The true singers, well, I hear them all in Gospel, which is nice but we need the good news in the secular, too. I shouldn’t have to go to church to hear about love and the finer things. Besides, you been to some of these churches lately; might as well be at a Vegas floor show🙄 We have a few left : Maxwell, Alicia Keys, India. Arie, Chrisette, Goapele, HER, D’Angelo, a handful of people like that. As for the ladies and the gents...🤷🏽‍♀️ where is the love⁉️it’s all porn tapes and Kardashian wannabes. It’s funny peculiar, when Black people were struggling just for an equal opportunity we had all this love energy and joy to share in spite of our difficulties; but since we have arrived in the mainstream ( allegedly!) all we got is pity parties and gunfights. Money ( 50,000 new millionaires - FACT- but still no power ( depends how you define that) and definitely no respect ( the body count people!) What’s up with that⁉️ as Mos Def has said: “ it’s not about Hip Hop.” Per se🌞
