Watch BJ The Chicago Kid's Acoustic Cover of Blackstreet's "Before I Let You Go"

BJ The Chicago Kid

I truly am a sucker for some 90s r&b, so BJ The Chicago Kid really has all my attention with these acoustic covers he’s been pushing out. A few weeks ago, he blessed us with Donnell Jones’ “Where I Wanna Be,” now he comes right back with a Blackstreet cover. BJ puts his own spin on Blackstreet’s “Before I Let You Go,” from their ’94 self-titled debut album. I’ll spare you a “they don’t make music like that anymore” rant, as BJ The Chicago Kid (with Jeff V. on the guitar) shows this generation’s cast of crooners is doing just fine. Look for BJ’s album In My Mind to drop in early 2016.
