There are few artists who survive changes in the music industry and can continue to stay relevant more than a decade after their first song is released.

Tank is one of those artists.

Maybe I Deserve from his first album is still probably one of his most popular songs, but he didn’t stop there. He’s also the songwriting pen behind many of our favorite R&B songs sang by artists including Aaliyah, Fantasia, Omarion, Tyrese, Jamie Foxx, Donnel Jones, Monica, and Kelly Rowland and he recently released his fifth studio album This Is How I Feel.

The singer known for his sultry voice is showing no signs of fading into oblivion. He recently sat down with RollingOut.com to talk about his career, what it’s like working with other R&B artists and, of course, the ladies. Here’s what he had to say about the five things that make every woman hot:

Confidence: It’s going to be in your walk, in your posture, how you hold out your hand to introduce yourself, how you hold your head high like a queen.

Take care of yourself: Having your feet and hands all nice and done up — and your hair. I don’t care if it’s your hair, I don’t care if it’s the horse’s hair, but as long as the hair is done and it’s taken care of, that’s Hot.

Your outfit: If your outfit is going to fit, let it fit. Show them what you got. And if it’s not going to fit, then let it flow and let it vibe.

Have some goals: Have some ambitions. Don’t let being pretty be your be-all [and] end-all. Actually, have some type of education or idea of what you want to accomplish.

Have a love for kids: I love a woman that loves kids. That’s Hot to me. I love a woman that’s nurturing, that’s ready to take care of and comfort [a child].

The singer definitely likes the ladies and has two kids from his ex-wife and two more kids from two other women. He’s been romantically linked to Kelly Rowland and Robin Givens, but is single at the moment.
