Born: July 5, 1973 in Columbus, Georgia.
Early Life:
Joe Thomas was one of five children and grew up in an environment filled with Gospel music. Both his parents are ministers. The Thomas family moved to Alabama when Joe was two and he grew up as an active member of the church and sang in the choir, played guitar and eventually directed the choir. In the late 1980s, he started playing in local bands in Alabama. He eventually moved to New York City to pursue a musical career.
The Breakthrough:
While working in a gospel music store and singing in a church, Joe met producer Vincent Herbert and recorded a three-track demo. Joe released his debut album, Everything, in 1993. It spawned a number of hit singles, including the #10 R&B hit "I'm in Luv." Joe signed with Jive Records for his 1997 album, All That I Am, which reached No. 13 on the Billboard 200 album charts and No. 4 on the R&B charts. All That I Am eventually went on to sell over a million copies in the U.S.
'My Name is Joe':
Joe released his fourth album, My Name is Joe, in 2000. It became his most successful album, reaching No. 1 on the R&B charts and No. 2 on the Billboard 200. It eventually sold over three million copies.
Split from Jive Records:
In 2007-2008, Joe left Jive Records and claimed that R. Kelly had been sabotaging his career while they were labelmates: "R. Kelly was very instrumental in making a lot of decisions when it came to my records being played on the radio," Joe told EUR's Lee Bailey. "He would make a call to the radio station or to the label and say, 'Hey, this Joe record is too hot right now. Y'all need to pull that back.' And they would oblige."
"The Love Scene"
Yeah
Ooh...hoo...ooh...
Well, well, well, well, well, baby
Hoo...hoo...baby
Mmm...hmm...mmm...mmm...
Listen, baby
(Take one) Baby lyin' on the bed
Exotic fantasies goin' through her head
(Take two) I jump into my SL6
I gotta make my way to the crib mad quick
(Take three) I see my baby as I step inside
She's staring at me with those bedroom eyes
(Take four) Honey sippin' on some Chardonnay
The sex is even better when she's feeling that way

We'll be in the groove until the sun comes up (Yeah)

Erotic memories for an audience of two
