Hi @JoeD

Most folks around here usually wait until a credible news source reports someone's passing.

 

aw man.. I hope this isn't true. Love his voice

 

It is appearing on several media sites including TMZ, apparently this is sad but true.

R.I. P James Ingram, Grammy-Winning & Chart-Topping R&B Singer, Dies at 66

 

If Debbie Allen is telling me this news I will believe it to be the truth. Someone else, maybe not.
RIP to the ultimate duet partner of the late 20th century.

 

RIP James...........what a voice.

 

I just posted that then noticed you already had, so I deleted it.

RIP

 

Great song, sad way for it to end. RIP

 

Oh man, this is a sad loss

 

This is some sad news and a tough way to go. His younger brother Phillip from Switch is a longtime friend of my wife's. Phillip sang at our wedding. I've never met James. Both of them truly gifted singers and musicians. It seems that we've been going to a lot of memorial services lately. Maybe some of you feel similar.

Rest in Peace.

 

DAG! No words.

F@ck cancer.

 

That stinks.

Wasn't really familiar with his music that well except for only a few songs.

 

What a loss. I grew up on his music and bought "Yah Mo B There" on 45 when it came out. R.I.P.

 

This is very sad news, but, he is in less pain now. Mr. Ingram Thank You for your time and your tallent. R.I.P. I'll say a prayer for his family.
