    Christopher Williams, a Virginia native, surfaced during the tail-end of the ’80s, around the middle of the new jack swing era. His talents were not limited to those of a singer, but also an arranger, producer, and actor. “Talk to Myself” and “Promises, Promises,” a pair of Billboard Top Ten R&B singles made with Timmy Gatling and Alton Wokie Stewart, marked his arrival.

Films at that time were mostly on television. You know what I mean? It wasn’t like it is now inom guess is what I’m really struggling to think about. It was like literally stuff that would get broadcast on network television. Old movies.
