This must have developed during Janet Jackson’s  Rhythm Nation Era! 1989 to 1992. I used to love Karyn White as a little girl. I remember her single ‘SUPERWOMAN’, it was one of few songs I knew word for word. For those of you who don’t know Karyn White was a hot chick in the late 80′s. Unfortunately they are no longer together as Terry is now remarried to Indira Singh but according to wiki they have a daughter together, her name is Ashley Nicole Lewis.

PS: Terry Lewis is shorter than Jimmy Jam, just in case you can never tell the difference!

After the success of her platinum self-titled debut album ‘Karyn White’ in 1988, her follow-up album was ‘Ritual of Love’ in 1991. It had songs produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis and featured the hit single “Romantic”, which hit number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. I figure this is how they met!

KARYN White’s stomach was doing somersaults.

This was her moment of truth.

And as she picked up the telephone and called Minneapolis, she understood clearly that when the call was over she would either be one happy–or humiliated–young woman.

As the phone rang, she closed her eyes and pictured what she would say when Terry Lewis came on the line. I can’t stop thinking about you? I want to be more than friends. She had no idea what was going to come out of her mouth. All she knew for certain was that, after months of long-distance conversation, she was finally going to tell Lewis how she felt about him.

“For a long time, I didn’t know where he was coming from,” says White of lewis, the Grammy-winning producer of Jimmy (Jam) Harris and Terry Lewis fame whom she had met in 1989 while recording at their Flyte Tyme Productions Studios in Minneapolis. “We would have these long, great conversations; and while I knew I really liked him, I would hang up wondering how he felt about me. It was like, What are you waiting for?’ Finally, I just had to say it. I told my girlfriend, “That’s it. I’m doing it today.’ So I called him up … and I just said, Look, I want to tell you something. I really like you.’”
