Genre Shift
 Lionel Richie (Music) / int_177a6464
comment
Genre Shift: Tuskegee consisted of Richie collaborations with current country artists. And Jimmy Buffett.note The British and German editions replaced a few of the country acts with more locally known acts. One of the songs he chose for the album was an aversion; the original "Deep River Woman" was a collaboration with Alabama, and was released to country radio alongside the pop outlet.

Teacher/Student Romance
 Lionel Richie (Music) / int_6d892421
comment
Teacher/Student Romance: The music video to Hello by Lionel Richie has this type of romance between a blind woman and a music teacher. The teacher spends the video stalking and lurking around but the ending (the student has just finished sculpting a bust with Richie's likeness) implies a mutual attraction.

Stalker with a Crush
 Lionel Richie (Music) / int_8b68d9a7
comment
Stalker with a Crush: Plays one in the video for "Hello", in which he pursues a blind performance art student. Extra squicky as his character is a professor. The Music Video Show says gives an alternative to this in an episode saying, she knows what's going on.

Cover Album: The Tuskegee album consisted of reinterpretations of songs he wrote in full or part. Most were from his solo career, though "Easy" and "Sail On" were first recorded by the Commodores, and "Lady" by Kenny Rogers.

As Long as It Sounds Foreign: The African-sounding bridge in "All Night Long (All Night)" was just gibberish made-up by Richie when he didn't have enough time to hire a translator for some foreign language lyrics that he wanted in the song.
