I've seen over the years others who have said they would be bigger and better than The Beatles......Damn I can't think of who they were/are. Perhaps just a flash in the pan.When D’Arby returned, in 2001, he had a new album, an independently released opus called “Wildcard” that included a soaring opener, “O Divina,” and songs co-written with hit-makers like Glen Ballard and Dallas Austin. But he wasn’t Terence Trent D’Arby anymore. Or, rather, he was and he wasn’t. The album was released under both that name and the name Sananda Maitreya (which he had adopted during his years away from recording, and which he legally took in 2001). “Wildcard” was re-released in 2002, and this time there was no trace of Terence Trent D’Arby: it was a Sananda Maitreya album in full. He was typically maximalist in his explanation of the change: “Terence Trent D’Arby was dead,” he said. “He watched his suffering as he died a noble death. After intense pain I meditated for a new spirit, a new will, a new identity.”

In an interview, D'Arby played with the press and expressed a high opinion of his first album, claiming that it was the most important album since the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper. [1] After the comments leaked to US media outlets, he stated that most of what he said was exaggerated, but that it is sometimes necessary to "hit people over the head" to get their attention. [12] The album earned him a Grammy Award in the category Best R&B Vocal Performance, Male (1989) [13] and a BRIT Award for International Breakthrough Act, and he also received Grammy and Soul Train nominations for Best New Artist. [14] Look, it is ignorant for anyone to say that TTD comes anywhere near the legacy of The Beatles. But give a fair hearing to his songs like "She Kissed Me", "Frankie & Johnny", "Holding On to You", "We Don't Have That Much Time Together", or "You Will Pay Tomorrow". Most likely, your evaluation of TTD will have changed. Yes, TTD's truly eclectic brand of neo-soul fell by the way side; much to the loss of popular R&B/Soul. a b c Thomas, Stephen.
