Multi-platinum R&B artist Musiq Soulchild has taken a lil break from singing about love & relationships and now he’s trying his hand at writing about them.
It’s official…. Musiq, who happens to reside in “the great STATE of Atlanta,” is now a published author!
“1 4 3 – Love According to Musiq”, is a journey into the heart of Musiq Soulchild. It talks about the impact that love has had on his music and how his music has impacted the relationships of others.
With sophisticated swag and attention to detail from every angle, Musiq gives his take on what it means to love one’s self and another person, and how the two come together to form true happiness.
Musiq held a press junket for 143 Love According to Musiq, at The Green Room Actor’s Lounge in Atlanta and he explained why he felt it was important to jump into the relationship.
More photos + video of my one on one with Mr. Musiq below…

Musiq hit the stage at The Green Room to discuss his new bookwriting endeavor and spoke of his personal knowledge of relationship matters.
When discussing the book, Music noted everyone has flaws and there are no perfect relationships and admitted that he discovered things about himself even as he was writing the book.
I spoke with Musiq about his new book and he was so excited about it. It was actually his first time seeing the final product and prior to our interview he took a moment to page through the book and take a gander at all of his hard work.
He said that fans should know first and foremost that he is NOT a “relationship guru” and does not have a PhD in psychology, but what he DOES have is a experience and a heart.

I’m just a dude talking about love… that’s all. All the things that inspired the songs that you know about and that I hope that you love, I just elaborated more on those topics and I just presented it in book form.
It’s nothing new. I’m not doing anything new. I’m not presenting myself as some kind of love expert, love master, or love guru or anything like that.
I’m just a person with an opinion that I pray will assist you in your relationships, in one way or another.
He also has a way with words and clearly understands love & relationships, which is why he chose to write the book. From my understanding, it was for no other reason than to express to the world the things he feels in his heart about relationship matters.
1 4 3 was written as a conversational piece in order to create a stronger bond between two people. For those of you looking to better the communication and overall connection in your relationship, this book is for you.
The book will be available everywhere June 25th, but you can CLICK HERE to pre-order your copy online and you’ll receive and autographed copy of the book + as an extra bonus, 3 fans will receive three golden hearts.
Would you be open to taking love & relationship advice from Musiq Soulchild?

Is that Derrick J in the photos with Soulchild!!!
You are SO SAD (in my Keisha voice). We should be lifting each other up not tearing people down. She doesnt have a models figure but she has slimed down quiet a bit. How about congradulating her efforts and wishing her luck in losing more. This world is becoming sadder and sadder.
@truth,FYI I thought that was really Derrick J. in the photo. Michelle tears down certain people all the time,that is sad. I don’t congratulate her efforts becasue she may have slimmed down but she still fat, and looks a mess. She goes in on Sheree, and some others all day about thier appearance when she looks like that!!!
LOL………I thought it was Derrick J also, but Derrick J is alot cuter.
Michelle, were is your waist line? You better call Sheree to help get you in shape.
ANd you stay checking for her "box built body" so why should it matter to you anyway. You jealous hoes are something else! SMH
ATLIEN LET THE HATERS HATE ALL THEY WANT BUT YOU ARE DOING YOUR THING SISTA! WE LOVE YOU IN MY OFFICE AND YOU LOOK GOOD GIRL.
Nobody is hating on that box built body…trust
judging from your avi YOU are the box not her.
I agree! I wish ATLien would go ahead and BLOCK Shee-ray and all her bitter friends.
Yes I would yes I would take advice from this man.
Is he still dating or married to the girl from the group 702?
I believe he is…
I love Musiq! He has always seemed thoughtful and caring. I would by his book just because he is in the cover! I hope he decides to make more music too. I love "LOVE" (the song and the emotion).
Being a female i would.
Naw, I’m straight. I know he has a eye condition but my question is how did he write a book with sunglasses on? He self-conscious and trying to give me advice???…….puhlease!
He DOES NOT have an eye condition. I am the ex of one of his relatives. He was palying as a child and accidentally ran into a fork that someone was holding. that how his eye was displaced. People need to start growing up and stop their extra critical non-sense.
If his eye is displaced then he has an eye condition dumbass!!!
Oh I see you are an equal opportunity hater huh? do you have any friends?
Why not? Everyone took advice from Steve Harvey and he ain’t never even wrote a love song. ;-D
With the very soulful, respectful, beautiful lyrics he writes, of course, I would take advice for him.
I see Harvey has opened up the flood gates for unsolicited relationship advice?Is he married?Yes,I like his music…lol but umm…I’ll pass on the book.

Hell, Steve Harvey got rich, traded his wife in for a newer model, took their child and seemingly left her with no cash on hand after she was with his a$$ when they both had to climb in the car from the passenger side. If they bought his book, when it SHOULD have been called, “Think Like a Pimp… and Act Like You Ain’t $hit”, I say they’ll be just dumb enough to take it from a man with no wife, and very few speakable relationships. (Get that money, Musiq) – if they won’t buy your humns, put them in form of a paragraph. The gullible will do anything in search of love.
you just spoke the truth! these folks act like they have to have a to-do manual for every step of their lives. I read a few of the books for ENTERTAINMENT only and some of the logic is common sense but I wouldn’t follow any of these fools step by step. Not a one!
NO… because he cant see straight!
I love his music.
Would never speak against someone getting published if someone is willing to publish them, and you don’t necessarily have to be in a 40+ year marriage to understand and see love clearly, but would only read this for entertainment.

Uhm… the great state of who the hell… what school did you go to. ATLANTA IS NOT A STATE, but Georgia is and guess what we are no longer 50th in education, time to re-enroll.
Yea it must be your first time here. Before you try to correct let me clue you in – that is a running joke on the site from the Tyler Perry fire. Watch the Funky Dineva video where he and ATLien went to the scene of the fire. You’ll get it.
