My first instinct was the guy from Fresh Prince, but that's Tom Jones.

After looking him up I don't think i've ever heard any of his songs

yield's major flaw? I thought that would be obvious, and it does not need 8 pages of discussion to find out - the album sucks. bad production, terrible lyrics, tres pretentious. thank god they bought back the rock with backspacer.
