Special thanks to:
Clive Davis, your input and thoughts have been greatly appreciated. Thank you for the songs and the creative direction you've given me. Let's make a lot of hits together. Love, Jermaine.
To my father-in-law Berry Gordy. I'll never forget what you said to me. You said if you give a man a fish he'll have food for one day, but if you teach him to fish he'll have food for the rest of his life. You've taught me how to provide for myself and my family in every aspect of life. I love you, you've taught me well.
Special thanks to Joel Katz, my friend, my advisor, my attorney. Your honesty and love has been greatly appreciated. Love, Jermaine.
Ron Fell, Gavin Report, you're always there to assist me on thoughts and decisions. You're great.
To Barry and Glodean, I'll never forget the times we've shared, especially when I needed a friend and you were both there. Love you, Jermaine.
