MJ Cole
Matthew James Firth Coleman (born on August 9, 1973), better known as MJ Cole,
is the London-born UK garage legend whose landmark debut album of 2000, Sincere,
peaked at Number 14 on the UK Albums Chart and spawned two Top 20 hits in "Crazy
Love" and its much-loved 1998 title track. Sincere, which was nominated for a
Mercury Music Prize and a BRIT Award, showcased Cole's classically trained nous

soulful vocals characteristic of the 2-step garage genre he helped pioneer.
