His full-length debut album <i>Only One Man Can<\/i> is filled with energetic beats and catchy harmonies that are sung with a sensuality that could only be rivaled by the best in the industry. Like a true artist, the San Diego-native wishes to offer up his craft to music fans. In a sense, it is among one of Marlon Dane\u2019s greatest aspirations as singer\/ songwriter\/producer to share his own salvation and refuge to those who need it the most.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/reviewermag.com\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/marlon-dane.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/reviewermag.com\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/marlon-dane.jpg?resize=264%2C266\" alt=\"\" title=\"marlon-dane\" width=\"264\" height=\"266\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-3591\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/reviewermag.com\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/marlon-dane.jpg?w=264&amp;ssl=1 264w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/reviewermag.com\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/marlon-dane.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 264px) 100vw, 264px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The cool vibe apparent in such tracks like \u201cFor Real,\u201d \u201cMaybe,\u201d and \u201cTake It Off\u201d are vitally refreshing and offer subtle nuances of the mid- till late 90\u2019s, also known to folks growing up during that period as the hey-days of R&#038;B. His suave and smooth style strongly resembles the old school R&#038;B classics that had dominated airwaves back then, as well as listing some of his major influences as Usher, Backstreet Boys, Frankie J, and Justin Timberlake.<\/p>\n<p>The songs off this 14-track disc are filled with powerful ballads sung with great emotive power, but it doesn\u2019t do this talented singer musical justice to merely label him as an artist who sings only one type of song. Although the ballads off this album definitely provide some of the strongest tracks on the CD, his more fun upbeat songs are highly persuasive as well. Songs like \u201cI Just Wanna Know\u201d and \u201cFor Real\u201d are very polished, providing the auditory pleasure Marlon was aiming for in the making of this album. Singing and performing at many local events including at the Manny Pacquiao-event when Pacquiao, the 7-time world boxing champion, visited San Diego, Marlon Dane\u2019s approachable and real style definitely gives him a personable arc; very different from the unattainable personas that some artists seem to project.<\/p>\n<p>With a strong cadence that could only be paralleled to Usher\u2019s early in his career, each track off Only One Man Can displays the R&#038;B singer\u2019s artistry and superb talent. The forecast is here\u2014Marlon Dane\u2019s future looks UNSTOPPABLE.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/marlondane.com\/\">marlondane.com<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/marlondane\">myspace.com\/marlondane<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Only One Man Can, Marlon Dane CD Review by My Nguyen San Diego R&#038;B sensation\u2014Marlon Dane\u2014has been garnering a lot of buzz lately.
