KEM's 'I Can't Stop Loving You' is Top 10 at Radio For More Than 5 Weeks in a Row!

KEM Album II - in Stores May 17th

NEW YORK, April 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Motown Records' critically acclaimed singer/songwriter KEM's got another hit with the first single "I Can't Stop Loving You," from his forthcoming sophomore album KEM Album II. In its first official week at radio, "I Can't Stop Loving You," was the #1 "most added" song at the Urban AC radio format, and is currently # 2 on the Urban AC chart. The heartfelt song has remained in the Top 10 for more than five weeks in a row, and is one of the "most requested" songs at radio commanding a listening audience of more than 13 million fans.

KEM Album II, in stores May 17th, is self-produced by the multi-talented singer and is the highly-anticipated follow-up to KEM's, gold-certified album Kemistry. The album spawned the sleeper smash hit "Love Calls," which stayed in the Top 20 on the radio airplay chart for more than a year. USA Today hailed his debut album as a "Motown classic," while Vibe called it "haunting" and "romantic." KEM will be performing songs from both albums when he headlines a 20-city "Find Your Way Tour" featuring American Idol winner Fantasia and singer Rashaan Patterson as opening acts. The tour kicks off in St. Louis, Missouri on June 8th.

Although the Detroit native rose to national attention with his poignant love songs, his personal story is one of victory and triumph: KEM was once homeless, struggling to support himself and his family by waiting tables and singing Top 40 cover songs for weddings. Once he got on his feet, he independently financed and released his first album before signing with Motown Records in 2002.

In addition to the tour dates, fans can catch KEM's performances on The Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage Cruise May 29 - June 5 and at the Essence Music Festival (main stage) in New Orleans on July 3rd.
