Today I'm introducing my debut album to the world, and I owe it all to Toni. Toni worked with me day and night on my album to perfection, she also told me I had to come up with a name since I was officially a singer-songwriter now instead of just Brian Edmonds.
Toni: Well after going through some names, I came up with Babyface
Brian: What? Lol No that will never work, Why, that name?
Toni: Because you don't look your age and it sounds like it fits you, and I'll just call you B
Brian: I don't know, everyone else has their original name Whitney, Aretha, Michael-
Toni: Brian, just change your name and see what happens
Brian: Ok so we are going with, Kenny Brian "Babyface" Edmonds inside the cover and just "Babyface" on the cover
Toni: Perfect, so are you prepared for the world to fall in love with you?
Brian: In love with me? Yea right, I'm just trying something different instead of being behind the scenes
Toni: You are a good songwriter and producer, look at the success of all the artists you have worked with.
Brian: Thank You
Toni: Do you believe in yourself?
Brian: I have to be honest, sometimes I don't until I see the success of the song in the charts
Toni: Well as you already know I believe in you (Taking his hand into her's)
Brian: That means a lot, and my first appearance is with you on the Arsenio Hall Show
Toni: Are you nervous?
Brian: A little believe it or not I'm shy
Toni: Don't worry I will be by your side
Los Angeles
A few weeks later Toni and Brian appeared on The Arsenio Hall Show, kicking off his solo career
Arsenio: I want to introduce a man that has made many hits for an artist like Whitey Houston, Anita Baker, Madonna, and many more please welcome Babyface
Brian: Thank You, Thank You for having me
Arsenio: I have to say you are an amazing talent your work really speaks for you
Brian: Thank You
Arsenio: This is your first solo project what or who was your inspiration for you to step outside your comfort zone
Brian: I really started writing when I was 12 I was always falling in love with girls lol and I would just put my feelings on paper and after the passing of my father I decided to start working on my own project, but I have to also give credit to someone very special to me
Arsenio: And who may that be?
Brian: T could you come out here so everyone can see the person that helped make this possible?
Arsenio: T? Who may-
Toni comes out from backstage waving to the audience, as she greets Arsenio and sits beside Brian.
