Biography

Michel’le Toussant is an R&B vocalist from Los Angeles, California, born on December 5, 1970. She is known for recording the first hip-hop soul album ever and for the paradox of having a squeaky, high-pitched speaking voice with an aggressive, full-bodied singing style. Her feature debut as a vocalist was on the [a=World Class Wreckin' Cru]’s 1987 single “Turn Off The Lights” when she was 16 years old. In 1989 her self-titled debut album was released on Ruthless Records, produced by [a=Dr. Dre]. The album contained the hit singles “No More Lies, “Nicety,” and “Something in my Heart.” The album was certified Gold and sold over 1.5 million copies. In 1997 Michel’le released her second album, “Hung Jury,” and the single “Hang Time” on Death Row Records. In 2003 she appeared on the Dysfunktional Family Soundtrack. From 2013 to 2015, she joined the cast of the TV One reality series R&B Divas: LA. On October 15, 2016, Lifetime aired a biopic about her life, Surviving Compton: Dre, Suge & Michel'le. It tells the story of her abusive relationship with Dr. Dre and [a=Suge Knight], her experiences with Ruthless Records, and her journey to find herself. Her intention with the biopic is to help positively encourage other victims of domestic violence.

LYRICS

Hey hey what's happening baby?
How you doing?
Wha-what you talking bout you leaving?
You can't leave me you need me
Come here come here where you going?
Oh it's like that huh? Alright

Oh oh oh

Here I am lonely and waiting
Wondering where you gone
And if you coming home
But you don't care
Cause if you did you wouldn't leave me
Sitting all alone
Is it something that you want
Everytime I'm in need of some loving
To show me that you care
You know you never there
Whats the use in being true to you
I'm never on your mind
I'm just a waste of time

All I need is someone to be there so
Come close to me
Close
Close to me
Every night I before I go to sleep
Come close to me
So Close
Close to me
Holding me tight almost every night
Close to me
Aye yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi

Always attending to those others
What about my needs?
You should be there for me-ee
How could it be that I lost you to another?
Tell me if I'm true cause I gave my best to you

I tried to prove
To you that I'm truthful
Why can't you see I want you close to me
Can't you see
We need to be together
Are all that we worked for soon be no more?

All I need is someone to be there so
Come close to me
Close
Close to me
Every night I before I go to sleep
Come close to me
So Close
Close to me
Holding me tight almost every night(so)
Close to me
Aye yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yi

So why should I go through this knowing you don't care
How I feel oh oh oh
If I'm to be I'm trying to leave you
But I don't think I will
O oh o oh o oh o oh o oh o oh o no no no no no no no no
O oh o oh o oh o oh o oh o oh o no no no no no no no no
O oh o oh o oh o oh o oh o oh o no o no

Come close to me come close to me
