Fresh off a two year stint in a California prison and still sporting his signature three-octave falsetto, ’80s hitmaker El DeBarge is working on his first album in 15 years.
Having resurrected DeBarge family band hits like “All This Love,” “Time Will Reveal,” “Rhythm of the Night” in a medley at the 2010 BET Award last month, singer-songwriter El DeBarge is hoping to achieve into a successful comeback bid with the aptly-titled Second Chance, his first album since 1994′s Heart, Mind, and Soul.
