Jackson, who has been active since the mid-1980s, is best known for hits such as “Rock Me Tonight (For Old Times’ Sake),” “Have You Ever Loved Somebody,” “Jam Tonight,” “Tasty Love,” “You Are My Lady” and “Nice & Slow.” He most recently released his 14th studio album, Love Signals, in 2018.

Studdard rose to prominence as the winner of the second season of American Idol and has since put together a successful solo career. He received a Grammy nomination in 2003 for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for the song “Superstar.” He has released six studio albums, including his platinum-selling debut Soulful.
