It hit 1 at radio stations across the country and sold over 200,000 copies, garnered a Billboard Top 100 single, followed by a BET & Music Box most requested video. An R&R magazine review called him the “fresh new voice in R&B”.
Josias landed a record deal with Lava/Atlantic Records, under the guidance of legendary executive Jason Flom, and eventually recorded and released the independent, multi-CDs entitled “In My Life”, “Ghetto Love” and “Special Time”. His classic song “In My Life” is a most requested song and stands up against the classics of all time.

They recorded several demo's and David 's percussion work was noticed by Marshall Jefferson (known for club hit "Move Your Body") who asked him to play on several record projects he had going on.
"Bongo Dave" as they called him ended up playing on records for ...Evelyn "Champagne" King, Tom Tom Club, Duran Duran, Ten City, Kym Mazelle and many others while still in high school and after performing in talent shows, block party's, night clubs and singing at weddings the beginning of David's hard work started paying off.
