Yeah, sure he may sound similar to D'. He's got his own little thing going on, too, though, n/m? I just want to respect him as an individual artist. Apparently he's only 19, and he's already got that intense soul dripping like honey from those vocals like he's 30 and been through it all, or something. Plus, I've heard that he's one of those self-sufficient brothas when it comes to music. Sure, it sounds like a D' clone, but I give love and respect to anyone with that much talent. Plus, you can tell that the soul in his voice is sincere. It's not a mimic of D', but real genuine soul, n/m? That's coming from him, not just impersonating the sound. So, even if the album does sound just like D', I'll still love it and give respect to the artist.
