Davis lived most of his life in Germany after he was stationed there in the 1970s[5] while serving in the US Army.

He began singing for Milli Vanilli in the 1980s after meeting German music producer Frank Farian.

Davis realized only later that his voice was being used by Fabrice Morvan, one of two pretend singers of the duo Milli Vanilli, the other being Rob Pilatus.

[6] Morvan and Davis performed together on the project "Face Meets Voice" in later years,[7] and they appeared together on German television in 2015.

After it was revealed that Morvan and Pilatus were not the true singers for Milli Vanilli, Farian re-did the album that was already planned for the original duo, renaming the 1991[7] album The Moment of Truth, and the duo, Davis and Brad Howell, the Real Milli Vanilli.
