Babyface consists of Kenneth Brian.
Kenneth Brian "Babyface" Edmonds (born April 10, 1958 in Indianapolis, Indiana) is a successful African American R&B and pop singer, songwriter, guitarist, keyboardist, record producer, film producer, and entreprenuer.
Edmonds, who is the 5th of six brothers, attended North Central High School and as a shy youth, wrote songs to express his emotions. Edmonds later played with funk superstar Bootsy Collins, who tagged him "Babyface" while he was still a teen, and the nickname has stuck with him throughout his life. He also played in the groups Manchild (which had a 1977 hit "Especially for You"), then in the light-funk and R&B group The Deele, which recorded three albums during the 1980s. Towards the end of the Deele's run, Babyface signed a solo deal with Solar Records, releasing his debut, Lovers, in 1986. He is associated with the groups After 7 and Milestone.
In 1989, Edmonds co-founded the successful R&B/ hip hop label LaFace Records with Antonio "L.A." Reid. Two of the label's first artists Toni Braxton and TLC achieved massive success. Braxton's eponymous 1993 debut album went on to sell over eight-million copies, and earned her a Grammy Award as the year's best new artist in 1994. Meanwhile, TLC's two albums on LaFace — 1992's Ooooooohhh.... On the TLC Tip and 1994's CrazySexyCool — combined to sell more than 15 million copies, and CrazySexyCool won the 1996 Grammy Award for Best R&B album.
Edmonds is also behind some of the biggest successes in contemporary music. He wrote and produced Boyz II Men's End of the Road and "I'll Make Love To You", both of which established records for the longest stay at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. He provided background vocals on Madonna's 1995 #1 hit "Take A Bow," and he shared billing with Eric Clapton on the chart-topping Grammy winner "Change the World" from the Phenomenon soundtrack. Additionally, he has produced and written music for many artists including Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Whitney Houston, Céline Dion, Mary J. Blige, Mariah Carey, Eric Clapton, Madonna, Aretha Franklin, Japanese singer Ken Hirai, Pink among others, and he has received an amazing three consecutive Grammy Awards for Producer of the Year, in 1995- 1997.
