He still sells, but I don't like most of his newer music...it sounds TOO watered down and too much like R&B and Rap. His 90's music was amazing because it had the soul, funk, and feel of real gospel...but had that rap attitude and used many rap references.
I'm pretty sure somewhere in the Bible, it's a sin to download CD's. No wonder their still selling!
