Jamie Foxx says he’s glad his music career flopped when he first launched it.
The Ray star released Peep This in 1994, but the album flopped and Foxx went into acting instead. However, after collaborating with Kanye West and releasing single Creepin’, Foxx has pursued his love of music.
He explained: “I always wanted to sing, but I’m glad I didn’t get the music career early because you never would have known me if I had. I probably would have done the Boyz II Men thing, singing slow songs and wearing linen.”
