Rest In Peace, to a man that taught me so much about music…Manuel Seal Jr. 🙏🏾🕊️
We honor our brother , an extraordinary songwriter, producer, and Grammy winner whose work defined an era of R&B. From Mariah Carey, Usher, and TLC to Destiny’s Child and Aretha Franklin, Manuel helped create the soundtrack to a generation.
I was blessed to experience his genius firsthand with my group Ruff Endz. His contributions to tracks like “Where Does Love Go From Here” and “I Apologize” , I’m not just saying that “ helped shape our debut album and our journey, and for that, I will always be grateful.
Manuel wasn’t just a hitmaker—he was a gifted creator who touched hearts and left an indelible mark on music. My heartfelt prayers go out to his family, friends, and fans.
Thank you for believing in us and sharing your gift with the world. Your legacy will live forever.
