ONE OF A

KIND LOVE

Link vs. Lincoln

"You can't search for love, love searches for you"

Having made his official debut in 1998 with his album Sex Down, Lincoln Browder is a man that by all accounts is very private. However, there were times in the beginning of his career that the balance between Link and Lincoln was very difficult. Why? Because he had to be Link 24/7. This meant fighting demons all the while remaining humble and committed to his gospel traditions. There was no going out in public casually, because at the top of his game, he was a hot commodity. With a Top 40 hit (Whatcha Gone Do), Link had a growing fan base and all signs were pointing to UNSTOPPABLE.

As a chart topping writer and singer, one thing that Link "Lincoln Browder" never had to struggle with was friendship. As he so honestly stated "I have not made a new friend in a long time."

His current circle of friends spans a 20-25 year bond. These are a group of friends that played a pivotal role in his life long before he became Link the celebrity. Rounding out his life is his wife of 15 years, whom has also been by his side to ensure he keeps a strong hold on life at home.

Link is quick to point out that as a father he makes sure that his children are not spoiled just because they live a certain lifestyle. The Browder household is deeply grounded in humility.
