Kenny Lattimore lands first #1 hit in 25 years

Los Angeles, CA - (February 7th, 2023), - Grammy-nominated R&B vocalist and songwriter, Kenny Lattimore secures his first #1 Song on the Billboard Adult R&B charts in 25 years with his single, "Take A Dose". It was exactly 25 years ago, when Kenny Lattimore's globally-recognized signature song, "For You," secured the #1 spot on the charts. The Billboard and Mediabase #1 "Take A Dose" is Kenny's latest offering lifted from his recently released and critically-acclaimed 10th studio album, "HERE TO STAY". The album is available now, via The SRG/ILS Group in partnership with the SincereSoul Records label imprint.

“It’s been an incredible start to the year. My wife, Faith, and I just welcomed a baby girl two weeks ago and now I have another #1 song. I remember when For You was #1 for ten consecutive weeks and how validating that felt. Now, after a career spanning 25 plus years to be back at #1, I’m truly grateful. My album title really spoke truth to power – I’m here to stay," said Lattimore. "I want to thank all the radio stations, streaming media, and fans who have supported me on this journey to “Take A Dose” reaching #1.” Lattimore added, “This is also the first time I’ve had two songs simultaneously on the various charts, with the second one being, “Why Oh Why” with Artists for Global Unity, already charting in the Top 30's, also on Billboard.

"TAKE A DOSE" was written by Kenny Lattimore, Drakkar “Madicin” Wesley, Ivan Latimore, Leigh Elliot, Lucas Firming, and David Anyepong Duodu. Produced by Drakkar “Madicin” Wesley, Lee Major, Caz, and KND. "Take A Dose, is about the healing power of love.”

The whimsical and animated music video for "Take A Dose" was directed by Chico Benymon. "When my friend Chico Benymon heard the song, he immediately had a concept idea that I loved. It was showing women in a spa-like galaxy, called "The Cure," where they can select “The Lattimore Experience,” which allows them to overcome the feelings of fear, rejection, loneliness, etc.," mentions Kenny. "I instantly knew this was it," he laughs.
