XTC (translated phonetically to Ecstasy) is the debut studio album by American R&B and soul singer-songwriter Anthony Hamilton, released October 29, 1996 on MCA Records in the United States.  The album failed to chart on both the "Billboard" 200 and the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts, and subsequently went out of print.  Its only single, "Nobody Else", charted at number sixty-three on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. "Be Alone No More" is a song by British R&B vocal quartet Another Level.

A remix version of the song features American rapper Jay-Z.  It was released a second time in 1999 together with a cover of the Simply Red song "Holding Back the Years".  The two releases peaked at number 6 and number 11 in the UK respectively. Ivan Matias is an American singer, songwriter, producer, arranger, hip hop ghostwriter, and entrepreneur.

He was considered a master showman, and one of the most dynamic and influential singers and performers in R&B and rock 'n' roll history.  Gaining fame in his early years as a member of the R&B vocal group Billy Ward and His Dominoes, he went solo in 1957 and recorded over 50 hit singles that spanned R&B, pop, soul, doo-wop and easy listening.  This included 16 R&B Top 10 hits, including six R&B number ones.  On the "Billboard" Hot 100, he scored 14 Top 20 Pop hits, six of which made it into the Pop Top 10.

"The Way" is the third single released in 2001 by American R&B/soul singer-songwriter Jill Scott, from her debut album, "Who Is Jill Scott?  Words and Sounds Vol.  1" on Hidden Beach.

It reached "Billboard" 200 at #7, while topping the Top R&B Albums chart for five nonconsecutive weeks.

It was written by Andrea Martin and Ivan Matias for Stone's second studio album, "Mahogany Soul" (2001), while production was helmed by Martin, Matias, Stone and Swizz Beatz.
