Veteran r& b songwriter/producer Sid 'Uncle Jamz' Johnson has worked with superstar producer/writer/artist Babyface amongst others. The two collaborated as songwriters on two of the most enduring ballads of all-time, "Slow Jam" by Midnight Star, and "Two Occasions" by The Deele. "Slow Jam" was later covered by Usher with Monica on his 6x platinum MY WAY album (also included on the 2x platinum Sountrack for the movie SOUL FOOD). Superstar diva Mariah Carey used elements of "Two Occasions" in her mega hit "We Belong Together", which also won two Grammys this year. A few years earlier r&b group Next, used parts of "Two Occasions" on their mega hit "I Still Love You" from their double platinum album RATED NEXT.
West Coast based rapper The Game also recently did his take on "Two Occasions" on his tune "One Night" from his newly released album DEVIL'S ADVOCATE. The album is well on its way to platinum status after going gold in two weeks. Southern rapper Plies just used elements of "Two Occasions" on his tune from the album Da REAList called "Want It, Need It" featuring Ashanti.
