Marcus Allen Interview: R&B Sensation talks First-Ever Holiday Album "Unforgettable Christmas"

R&B Sensation Marcus Allen made his comeback this year with singles "Like No Other", "Slide" and "I Can" with each one having a different vibe. They have all been climbing the charts at an incredible rate. Now the 22x award winner has released his first-ever Holiday album Unforgettable Christmas to all digital music platforms. Written and produced all by Marcus Allen with the help of upcoming singer-songwriter Michael Robles, this album will take you on an emotional roller coaster celebration of holiday spirit with an R&B twist.

TERRANCE: First, congratulations on the release of your first-ever Holiday album Unforgettable Christmas. After 20 years in the industry, why did you feel right now was the time to release it?

MARCUS ALLEN: Thank you. To be honest with you, I've always wanted to release a Christmas album for years, since I was younger and since I got in the business. It just never felt like the right time. You know when you have another release out during the year and you're pushing it and when you're on the road and doing shows and preparing for media and getting intertwined with all the other things, it never seems like the time. Time just flies by and next thing you know, you're in November and December. So this time around, I really put emphasis on wanting to get this done and was willing to put the time in and didn't let anything get in the way.

TERRANCE: What's unique about this project is it's not your typical Christmas album with cover songs.

MARCUS ALLEN: Right. Yes, that was done purposely. I wanted something different. Not the regular, not the norm that people would expect. Something for people to just say, oh this is different, let me give it a listen. And so in doing so, it has created its own buzz. So I'm really thankful and really happy I decided to go this route.

TERRANCE: Give us some background on what inspired the songs and how they were created, starting with "Picture Perfect Christmas"

MARCUS ALLEN: Oh man, the process to this album was incredible. I literally didn't want to go in with any idea of what I wanted to do. I just wanted to go in and create and that's exactly what we did. I didn't write anything down to any song. Every song that was done was pretty much done off of feeling alone. So I pulled from my past history of Christmas and being with family and spending time with the one's I love during the Christmas season and holiday. That's really what made the records come to life, like "Picture Perfect Christmas".

TERRANCE: "Pull Up"

MARCUS ALLEN: Every holiday, what do we do? You know if you're in college, you go home. If you're in high school, you're out for the holidays. If you're not at work, you take some days to go home and visit family and friends. And what do you do? You get with your friends and your family and you pull up somewhere and have a good time whether it's your grandma's house and the music is playing or whether you're with your friends at the club. It's always a good time somewhere, somehow. That's what I wanted to create. Some positive energy.

TERRANCE: "Grateful"

MARCUS ALLEN: This song is just wanting people to take the time out to look around you and appreciate the small things. Appreciate the things on the day to day basis that we tend to look past. That's how "Grateful" came about. Just wanting to be grateful in the moment. Embrace the moment for what it is and cherish it while you can.

TERRANCE: "She Made It Worth It"

MARCUS ALLEN: This is like the dearest to my heart record on the album. I smile while I say this because it goes back to my childhood when we didn't have anything. We didn't have much at all. We were dead broke and my mom was a single parent. It was me, my brother and my sister and her smile made it worth it. Her smile made Christmas worth it and we just leaned into each other and just enjoyed what we could afford and what we could have and to see my mom smile made everything worth it.

TERRANCE: "Stay for Christmas"

MARCUS ALLEN: "Stay for Christmas" is basically what a lot of us tend to go through or what a lot of us have gone through at some point where you had a relationship and it worked and it was fun and there was love there and then you lost that. It's like a part of you miss the moments you guys shared during Christmas and some of us try to get that moment back. That's pretty much what that is.

TERRANCE: "All On Me"

MARCUS ALLEN: This is basically facing the fact that the one you were with during Christmas is gone all because of your mistakes and your actions. So now you're spending Christmas alone and you're just wishing and hoping that she would pick up that phone. 

TERRANCE: "Season 4 Love"

MARCUS ALLEN: "Season 4 Love" is just that feel good record that when you listen to it, you see Christmas in front of you. It came from just wanting that type of situation for Christmas. When you listen to it, it gives you the vision. 

TERRANCE: "With Peace & Love"

MARCUS ALLEN: When you turn that on, you can hear Christmas in it. All of the records are original records. They have a touch of Christmas vibes to them, but when "Peace & Love" comes on, it just takes you to a place. That wishful place that comes when you get closer and closer to Christmas day.

TERRANCE: What was it like filming the visuals for "Pull Up"?

MARCUS ALLEN: Man, I never smiled so much for a video. I think I smiled about half the video. It was so cold outside, but it was so much fun. We filmed in Anderson, South Carolina. We filmed in Greenville, South Carolina and we filmed in North Carolina.

TERRANCE: Overall, what do you hope listeners take away from the Unforgettable Christmas experience?

MARCUS ALLEN: I want them to go back to a moment that was unforgettable for them during the Christmas holiday because one thing about Unforgettable Christmas is that we have all lived and we have all lived to learn. That's what Unforgettable Christmas is about. It's not all about the greatest moments. It's about moments we have to learn from during Christmas to apply to next Christmas whether it is being grateful or whether it is hoping she stays for Christmas and not making the same mistakes so she does stay for Christmas and being grateful for the things we have and not the things we don't have.

TERRANCE: Any final words you would like to share with your fans, followers and the readers?

MARCUS ALLEN: I want to say I love you all. Without you, there is no me. There's so much more to come, so ride this journey with me and enjoy Unforgettable Christmas because it's an album you won't forget. God bless you, I love you and Merry Christmas.

She followed that with her 1987 sophomore album Love Confessions which produced two more top 5 hits "Baby, Be Mine" and "That's What Love Is" with the late Gerald Levert. Her 1989 self-titled third album proved to be an even bigger commercial success which includes her first No. 1 hit "Ain't Nuthin' in the World" and top 5 hits "Love Under New Management" and "Until You Come Back to Me (That's What I'm Gonna Do)". In 1992, Howard released her fourth album Femme Fatale featuring her second No. 1 hit "Ain't Nobody Like You". In the same year, she portrayed Billie Holiday in the Spike Lee-directed Malcolm X biopic starring Denzel Washington and Angela Bassett. Howard then went on to record and release the critically acclaimed 1993 Billie Holiday cover album Miki Sings Billie: A Tribute to Billie Holiday and starred in the John Singleton-directed Poetic Justice alongside Janet Jackson and Tupac Shakur. Can't Count Me Out (1997), Three Wishes (2001), Pillow Talk (2006), Private Collection (2008), I Choose to Be Happy (2015) albums followed.

RnBJunkieOfficial caught up with Miki Howard to discuss her most personal album yet MEHA, available on streaming platforms.

TERRANCE: Talk to us about what inspired the title of your new album MEHA and the concept behind it.

MIKI HOWARD: Well, you know, everybody loves to call everybody a queen and some people are definitely queens but I'm a sister type *laughs*. I really have a cherished relationship with my sisters and this album is in sort of memory of them, because I lost three of my sisters, so that's why I titled it Meha. It means sister.

TERRANCE: So, give us some background on the singles that are out now, starting with "Throw It Away".

MIKI HOWARD: "Throw It Away" is an Abbey Lincoln song in tribute to Abby Lincoln because she was such an amazing writer and I think her songs are so relevant today. It's about living your life and giving your love and doing the best you can everyday.

TERRANCE: "Number One Fan".

MIKI HOWARD: It's a song that I have had for about ten years written by a wonderful writer by the name of Rovella Williams and I could never find the right time or person to do the song. I tried to give it away and everything and then one day, it kept rolling around in my head. I said, I might as well go ahead and do it because, you know, when you feel down and you feel like what you're doing is in vain and nobody really gets you and all of those things. This is a song that will lift you up in terms of really knowing who your number one fan is and I think it's God. Also, it's a song I play for my children.

TERRANCE: What more can you tell us about the album?

MIKI HOWARD: I can tell you that the lyrics to these songs are amazing and very poignant and relevant to what's going on in our lives. I just love these songs and you have to get it to hear it.

TERRANCE: This year marked the 35th anniversary of the Love Confessions album. What do you remember the most about those recording sessions?

MIKI HOWARD: Wow. Well, I was on tour really hard at that time because "Come Share My Love" was out and I just toured a lot. I was only recording on Tuesday's, Wednesday's and Thursday's.

TERRANCE: Who are some artists you're listening to at the moment?

MIKI HOWARD: Whoever comes on the radio *laughs*. I have a lot of personal favorites. Everyone from H.E.R. to India.Arie. I just love music, so it's kind of all over the place.

TERRANCE: Are there any upcoming shows you can tell us about?

MIKI HOWARD: Well, I will be in Detroit on January 15th or something like that. On January 30th and 31st, I'll be in Chicago at the City Winery and February, I'll be in D.C. So yeah, I'll be around and you can catch me out.

TERRANCE: When you're not working in entertainment, what do you enjoy the most?

MIKI HOWARD: Hanging out with my grandkids and my children and getting on their nerves *laughs*. That's it. I don't do very much.

TERRANCE: What do you hope listeners take away from the Meha experience?

MIKI HOWARD: I hope that they remember that Love is God and God is Love and that they find their feelings are not only their own and that we suffer and feel the same good and bad things and that God loves them.

TERRANCE: Any final words you would like to leave with your fans, followers and the readers?

MIKI HOWARD: I love you guys and thank you for coming to my shows and everything. I really appreciate it.
