Highlights

Released his debut album, Can I Borrow a Dollar?, in 1992.
Originally recorded as "Common Sense," but had to change his name due to a lawsuit from a band with the same name.
His father, former pro basketball player Lonnie Lynn, performs the track "Pop's Rap" on 1994's Resurrection.
Had a public feud with rapper/actor Ice Cube over the Resurrection song "I Used to Love H.E.R.," which was critical of hip-hop's attitudes toward women.
Critical and commercial breakthrough came with 2000's gold-certified Like Water for Chocolate.
Made his big-screen debut as himself in the 2002 romantic comedy Brown Sugar; later played Sir Ivy in 2006 actioner Smokin' Aces.
