The Moment Of Truth (Milli Vanilli Album)
''The Moment of Truth'' is the only studio album by the pop group the Real Milli Vanilli, released in 1991. History ''The Moment of Truth'' was meant to be the follow-up to Milli Vanilli's first album '' All or Nothing'' (repackaged as ''Girl You Know It's True'' in the United States). After it was revealed that Rob Pilatus and Fab Morvan had not performed the vocals with which they were credited in Milli Vanilli, the producer Frank Farian formed the group The Real Milli Vanilli, with the actual singers on the recordings, as well as new vocalists Gina Mohammed and Ray Horton. Milli Vanilli's vocalist, Charles Shaw, was unable to record for this album after being paid for his silence regarding his involvement with the first Milli Vanilli album. Most of the lead vocals on ''The Moment of Truth'' were performed by Brad Howell, who had performed many of the lead vocals on ''All or Nothing'' and ''Girl You Know It's True''. The album also has the rappers Icy Bro on "Hard as Hell" an ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
