Robbed hit of the week 8/8/22 - Dave Hollister's "One Woman Man"...

 

 

"One Woman Man" - Dave Hollister

from the album Chicago '85...The Movie (2000)

Billboard Hot 100 peak: #44 (two weeks)

 

This week's "robbed hit" comes from R&B singer Dave Hollister, who landed a top-40 crossover hit in the summer of 1999 with "My Favorite Girl" from his solo debut album Ghetto Hymns after leaving the group Blackstreet. A year later, Dave returned with his sophomore effort, Chicago '85...The Movie. The lead single from the record was "One Woman Man", written by producer Michael "Mike City" Flowers. In it Dave runs into an ex, and apologizes for his wilding ways. He says he's settled down to monogamy, and since he's with someone, he can't ask her back.

While "One Woman Man" scored Hollister his second top ten R&B hit and highest rank at #8, the song stalled a few notches under the Hot 100 pop top-40 in February of 2001. The Chicago '85 album, released in November of 2000, climbed to #49 on the Billboard 200 sales tally, and #10 on the R&B Albums list, going on to sell over a half-million copies. "One Woman Man" is currently Dave's most streamed song on Spotify.

A second single from the album, "Take Care Of Home", slipped into the R&B Singles Top-40 at #39.
