As a haunt lead vocalizer for late-'80s teen pop sensory faculty New Kids on the Block, Jordan Knight lententide his sweet falsetto to such Top Ten hits as "You Got It (The Right Stuff)," "I'll Be Loving You (Evermore)," and "Overcompensate Girl." Additionally, Knight added patronage vocals and his nascent production skills to records by the likes of Tommy Page and Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch, and began to stair into that latter part for the New Kids as Maurice Starr's influence over the group waned. However, by the time of 1994's Look the Music, their popularity had waned as well, and Knight was well-nigh understood for several years following the group's subsequent breakup. In one of the unlikelier music-industry comebacks, though, Knight -- like buster New Kid alum Joe McIntyre -- took vantage of a resurgence of interest in teen-oriented "boy bands" (like *NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys) to launch a solo vocation. The single "Give It to You" was released in early 1999 and became a attain, setting the stage for Knight's eponymic solo debut record album later that year. Knight continued to tour and make appearances end-to-end the early 2000s.

Passion Songs followed in 2006.
