The album was even nominated for the Grammy Awards' "Record of the Year." The second release from this album "Candy" did equally as well while the cut "Back & Forth" climbed to the top 3 on R&B charts. A year later, Cameo returned with Machismo, which shocked music fans around the globe Incredibly, the album features Miles Davis playing with Cameo on "In the Night". The album also included appearances by Maceo Parker, Fred Wesley, Bernard Wright, Randy Brecker and Michael Brecker. That same year, Cameo won the American Music Award for " Favorite Group, Soul, R&B." Cameo's long string of funky albums include Real Men Wear Black (1990), Emotional Violence (1991), In the Face of Funk (1994), Nasty (1996) and Sexy Sweet Thing (2000). In 2002, Cameo released a double-disc career retrospective titled Anthology.
