Tevin Jermod Campbell (born November 12, 1976) is a five-time Grammy-nominated American R&B singer-songwriter.
Campbell scored a string of R&B chart hits as a teenager in the early to mid-1990s. Like Usher and Bobby Brown, Campbell transitioned from child singer to adult R&B crooner, and he is a recognizable figure in the New Jack Swing genre of music.
Born in Waxahachie, Texas, Campbell was introduced to the R&B world by Quincy Jones in August 1989 and is widely known for his five octave vocal strength and is often referred to as the male Whitney Houston. Campbell’s debut single was “Tomorrow (A Better You Better Me)” which reached number 1 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip hop Singles chart in June 1990.
It was the lead single from Quincy Jones’ critically acclaimed ensemble LP Back on the Block which won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 1991.
After working with Jones and writers and producers including Siedah Garrett, Campbell worked with producers Narada Michael Walden, Al B. Sure, Babyface, and others to record additional music.
