Tevin Campbell to return to South Africa
Campbell’s achievements include appearing on Quincy Jones’ LP Back on the Block and featuring on "Tomorrow (A Better You, A Better Me)", which hit number one on the R&B charts in June 1990. Later that year, he appeared in Prince's Graffiti Bridge film singing "Round and Round", which Prince wrote for him. He also appeared on the soundtrack to Boyz in the Hood singing "Just Ask Me To", a top 10 R&B hit in 1991.
All of this set the stage for his debut album, 1991's T.E.V.I.N., which went platinum and spawned two R&B chart-toppers, "Tell Me What You Want Me to Do" and "Alone with You" as well as the R&B top five hit "Goodbye". “I'm Ready”, released two years later, achieved double platinum status and featured three R&B chart hits: the number one "Can We Talk?"; "I'm Ready", which went top five; and "Always in My Heart", which reached the top 10.
Campbell’s compilation album “The Best of Campbell” was a huge international commercial success, reaching multi-platinum status in Africa; Japan and England. Campbell has worked with some of the industry’s top writers and producers including Prince, Babyface, Al B Sure, Narada Michael Walden, Wyclef and Sean “Diddy” Combs. After releasing several hit singles, he transitioned into TV, film and Broadway.
He made several acting appearances in the hit TV sitcoms The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and Moesha and appeared on the soundtrack for A Goofy Movie, an animated musical comedy film. In recent years, Campbell has taken Broadway by storm playing the role of Seaweed J Stubbs in the hit musical Hairspray. He reprised his role of Seaweed in the Australian productions of the hit musical.
