Chris received the honor for his chart-topping single “Voices” (from his The Man I Want to Be album), as well as “You” and “Tomorrow,” both from his hit-filled NEON collection.
• Chris is working his way up the charts right now with “I Can Take It from There,” another big hit from his NEON album.

“I dread the day that my niece starts dating, and I feel sorry for the little boy who tries to date her. It’s just gonna be…between me and my sister, my sister’s bad enough. And yeah, it’s gonna be fun.”
