Case

Case is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Christopher Williams, Al B. Sure!, Faith Evans, Mary J. Blige and Joe. Those roots explain a lot about how Case arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Dru Hill, Donell Jones, Joe, Tyrese and Carl Thomas, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Ginuwine, Tyrese, Ja Rule, Foxy Brown and Beyoncé, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 40 connections around Case, reaching back through Christopher Williams and forward to Ginuwine. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
