♫ Lyfe Jennings – Midnight Train
Columbia Recording Artist Lyfe Jennings will be back with his 3rd album, Lyfe Change on April 29th. According to Lyfe, he can’t wait to release Lyfe Change and is ready to establish an even deeper connection with his fans and garner new ones.
“The album is called Lyfe Change because I’m changing it up a bit,” explains Lyfe. “In the past I didn’t work with different producers, I produced and wrote most of my albums by myself. But on this project I actually worked with different producers and a few writers.”
His newest track “Midnight Train” does a play on the Gladys Knight & the Pips classic song, “Midnight Train to Georgia”. Check it out.

smooth..
He’s got a great voice. I think this song will do him well.
I am probably gonna get shot in the foot for saying this but I never could really get into Lyfe Jennings….His voice really annoys me.
@ 3 I agree with you his voice irks me too.
I love him as a artist. I met him in 2006; i told him i thought he was cute, but that i wanted to cut off his goatee…he just smiled and laughed it off….he has such a cool spirit guys, and he wants to make music we all can be proud of ……real music, classic stuff….I’m supporting him…he’s a deep brotha
He’s looking good for some reason in that pic. Maybe its the black&white who knows.
I love his look but something about his voice irritates the hell out of me! Like he’s singing into a house fan ….
He looks good & sounds even better. Loves it!!
I love how he called Jay Z out and told him that 30 is NOT the new 20, it’s the same old 30! Grow up Jigga Man!
Lyfe is my favorite male artist!! I cant wait until the album drops!!!!! He is so talented!!:-)
What’s weird about this song is that this morning around 6:30, I usually
have random thoughts while getting ready for work and I thought about how
someone needed to re-make in some way Gladys Knight “Midnight Train to
Georgia and low and behold I check the website and see this. I like that he is
opening up to producers and song writers. I like this song. Now all he needs to
do is stop doing so much testifying after each song he sings, I know that’s his
style, but I just want to hear the music when I am in the groove.
First CD was good second was trash so Im happy hes working with some new people. But I will not buy this one as I did with the other 2.
I really like Lyfe Jennings as an artist. I had the pleasure of seeing him perform in New Orleans on three occasions. The first cd was really good. I was really disappointed in his second cd, he didn’t deliver what I expected I guess since the first one was so good. I willing to support him though. I will make sure that I listen to the whole cd before purchasing it. But he is a real straight to the heart person. A lot of male artists that are out now don’ have much substance to their music.
LYFE JENNINGS KNOW HE IS FINE!!!! DAMN I WOULD JUMP THAT!
Can’t say that I really like him that much muscially-he’s okay. However,I did see him on Judge Hatchett and I admire him as a person. BTW he’s taller than I expected and his got a nice little “cut” (bodywise),too! NOT MAD AT THAT-LOL!
I just love him as an artist…been a fan since the first album….I agree with #6 this guy has a beautiful spirit…it just shows in his music…he talks about the real ish….and for the people who is hatin on him need to sit down an actually listen to some of his music. This man has done some yrs in the pen….and has turned his life around…it just truly show you that anyone can redeem themselves….and not all ex cons are bad people….
He is the sweetest person. Something about him I love cause he is real about what he is singing and he is not on some Hollywood stuff.
I like him, his voice is diffrent but not as half annoying as The Dream and TPain so…
Lyfe Keep doing your thing! Stay out of the Gucci Store Phipps Plaza in ATL.. LOL
Man, I be feeling awkward about how deep he is, but yet he still aggravates me…I think it is his voice. He sounds like he’s on the toilet straining! lol Nah, but it takes me a while to like a song and even then, it rubs back off! I don’t know, man!
*********************************************************
I LOVE Lyfe Jennings……his music always has a meaning behind it…that’s what i like about him! No bubblegum pop R&B!
Yeah Lyfe has a good spirit and wonderful voice to match because the manis grateful for this opportunity to do what he does after overcoming obstacles in his life. I respect the man for that and this is a beautiful remake he might have a wider audience because of this song.
HATED iT!!! Never was a fan of his, other than that one Track (S.E.X.).
Love this song. He has a beautiful and soulful voice. I’ll definitely be copping his album. And it doesn’t hurt that he is looking mad sexy in that pic.
His voice is annoying,but i love his vibe and his music as an artist!So this song fits him well!
A. He needs a shave-he has a handsome face and B. That “Must be Life” song-although catchy was a bunch of hog-wash b.s….I can’t remember the lyrics but I remember thinking he sounded like a sorry a$$ black man…something about spinners and gold diggers-get your sh*t together & stop b*tching “Lyfe” As if…
Hm, I’m going to have to give it a couple more spins, I’m pretty sure I start singing in my head as soon as it starts to get played.I like Lyfe though.
i REALLY LIKE HIM AS AN ARTIST. I SAW HIM THE THE HOUSE OF BLUES IN HERE IN LOS ANGELES, HE WAS VERY NICE AND A LITTLE SHY. I LIKE HIS MUSIC AND HIS VOICE. HE SEEMS LIKE A COOL DUDE. GREAT MUSIC
J Holiday took his ghetto r&b style and ran with it lol
I love some Lyfe Jennings. Can’t wait for the album to release.

whoa…he cut his hair off
he cut his hair long time ago
now if he would cut the goatee….oh the sex appeal
@ 15 Why was he on Judge Hatchett?
I liked Cops Up, but it never got any airplay on the radio (I’m in Indy). I hope his album does well. He’s a great artist!
I so love this song!! its sounds really good and i like the direction that he’s taking.. damn all them artists out there gotta watch out!!!
I love, love Lyfe Jennings. His first cd is excellent. The realness of the the topics displayed was a breath of fresh air. Not to mention he is fine to boot.
Love Lyfe’s Music, I think he is SEXY. He reminds me sooooo much of my Husband, I can’t get him to cut the goatee either…lol.

I REALLY LOVE THIS SONG. my new white toy boy been gettin me into this indie/soft rock sound and Lyfe is doing the dang thing on this guitar track. i understand people RE his gravelly voice but just give it a minute and you will get used to it
LOVE this.
lyfe is so slept on, he is the future – even lionel ritchie said it.
he put on sucha great show on the dvd i got with his first album i can became an instant fan after borrowing it from a friend.
my fave male artist period.
Just this weekend I was listing to his phoenix album and I was just telling my sister that that album had way to many covers songs that he did not do justice to, and I said “I’m just glad that he didn’t try to do a Gladys song because if he would have done midnight train to Georgia, and not done it right I would have had a fit.” and here he is wit a Gladys song that he butchered. I’m upset and with what I have herd so far I will not be purchasing his new album he gets a big fat WACK from me!

Brother doing BIG THINGS… I’m a fan of Lyfe!!!
im lovin this song, songs sounds great, by the way check out this great blog http://djtriumph.blogspot.com
Love the song! I love Lyfe cant wait till his cd comes out in april!
As soon as I heard the “eh eh eh”, I was like “no no no” and turned it off. Then I went back because I wanted to give him a chance, but yet I was disappointed. It sounds just like every slow song out today. I love lyfe, but not this song.
COME ON PEOPLE! Think outside of the box. Its okay to be different.
@ kay kay “Must Be Nice’ was not about golddigging women it was sayin itz nice having someone who’s gonna be there for you…i see someone is a lil guilty!!!
I am so in love with him, as I am with Common, Mos Def (where you been, son), and Talib Qweli….. Lyfe just puts out there, on there, and serves it up to you on a grimy (in a good way) style platter that always suits me well.
As someone said early, I agree, T-Pain Teddy Pain Tallahassee Pain, bothers the Sh$# out of me with his annoying synthesizer! And then Snoop follows with “Sexual Seduction/ Sexual Eruption”
Again, I luv me some Lyfe Jennings all up and through New Orleans- 3x’s wasn’t enough charm for me- Come back and hit us up again for Essence Festival this July. Don’t change, keep hitting us with the Folklore R&B
