Editor's note

Dave Hollister's slow-burn R&B confessions

From Blackstreet's hits to solo vulnerability, his voice carries a lived-in weariness.

For the full picture, start with "Afraid to Lose" and then check out "Chicago Winds." That's where you hear the range.

Hollister's signature ballad "Afraid to Lose" became a slow-burn confession of vulnerability that connected with listeners. His voice carries the kind of lived-in weariness that suits his material, whether on relationship songs like "One Woman Man" or later tracks like "Chicago Winds." He's worked with singers like Brandy and Mary J. Blige, but mostly performs as a solo vocalist.

He joined the R&B group Blackstreet in 1995, appearing on hits like "No Diggity" and "Before I Let You Go." Hollister went solo in 1999 with the album "Ghetto Hymns" and has released several albums since, including "Singin' for My Supper" in 2002 and "The Book of David" in 2016.
