MJJ Music's New Jack-leaning trio Nicci Gilbert, Charmayne Maxwell and Mimi Doby. 'If You Love Me' (1995) is a Grammy-nominated, #8 R&B sleeper of the highest order, and 'Grapevyne' kept them on quiet-storm radio. The whole 'From the Bottom Up' record is one of those underloved early-90s R&B albums that has aged into a small-circle classic. Charmayne passed in 2019; the catalog deserves more attention than it gets.
