There have been cries from R&B fans to have these acclaimed singers together and the powers that be are ready to make that happen for a Valentine's Day event that will have music lovers revisiting a few classics.

Hamilton is widely known for "Charlene," "Can't Let Go," and "Comin From Where I'm From," among many others, while Musiq has a few noteworthy classics as well. It's expected that he'll croon out "Halfcrazy," "Love," "Don't Change," and more.
