Peabo Bryson was beloved by many for his R&B hits, like “Feel the Fire” and “I’m So Into You,” but he was also the voice of many people’s childhoods, having provided vocals for both “Beauty and the Beast” and “A Whole New World” in the early ’90s. Sadly, the singer-songwriter died on June 2 at age 75. Speaking to People, Bryson’s family revealed he’d had a stroke.

Numerous stars who worked with Bryson shared tributes in his honor after his passing, like Celine Dion, who’d been his ballad partner on “Beauty and the Beast.” Taking to X, Dion shared she was new to singing in English when they recorded the song and lauded him for keeping her relaxed during that time. “He was so wonderful and generous to me all those years ago … He made me so comfortable.” In a touching conclusion, Dion added, “He will remain for me always as a real symbol of the joy that music has brought to my life.” Kenny Lattimore also shared a statement to Instagram, writing, “One of the greatest voices our genre has ever known. Thank you for the legendary music, the excellence, and your supreme example. Your legacy is forever etched into the heart of R&B and beyond.”

Bryson’s widow, Tanya Boniface, also shared a heartfelt message to Instagram in her late husband’s honor, penning, “You loved me endlessly with every part of you and I loved you endlessly with every part of me … Please shower us with your spirit, I need it!” Boniface and Bryson shared a young son, who performed onstage with his dad just one month before his passing. Bryson also had a daughter from a previous marriage.
