~Horace Brown~ Horace was born in Charlotte, North Carolina and is the son of a Baptist minister. Despite singing in the church as a child, Horace Brown never believed he would sing for a career. Instead, he dreamed of one day being a professional basketball player. However, a knee injury ruined these plans. Horace Brown played a variety of instruments in his school's marching band and managed to score a break when DeVante Swing of Jodeci heard one of Brown's demos. Brown earned spots doing backup for Christopher Williams and did some writing. He finally scored a break when he managed to get a contract with Uptown after Andre Harrell saw him in a recording session. In 1994, while on Uptown Records, Horace Brown spurred controversy with his single 'Taste Your Love' was released. The single was an ode to MouthAction and was banned in parts of the south. Despite the press around the single, it failed to perform well on the charts and caused Horace Brown's album to be put on the shelves for the remainder of the time he was at Uptown. When Andre Harrell of Uptown moved to Motown, he brought Horace Brown with him. Motown promoted the album by releasing two more singles and in 1996, released his self-titled debut album. The album featured Sean 'Puffy' Combs and Faith Evans. (1996) - Horace Brown

~Sade~ Helen Folasade Adu, known as Sade~ (pronounced shar-day) was born in Ikere, Ekiti State, Nigeria. Her name, Folasade, means "Love Confers Your Crown".January 1959 in Ibadan, Nigeria. Her father, Bisi Adu, was a Nigerian lecturer in economics and her mother, Anee Hayes, was an English nurse. When Sade was four, her parents marriage faced tension and her mother moved back to England with Sade and her older brother Banji. In 1977, Sade went to London and took a three-year course on fashion design at St. Martin's College. Afterwards, she set up her own fashion company which made mens clothes. She also did work as a photographic model. At the same time, Sade became a member of a Latin soul group named Arriva. In this group, Sade sang the song 'Smooth Operator' which would become her first hit in the US. Sade then joined a band known as Pride, which was oriented around the concept of having sub-bands that would act as openers for the entire group. Sade and several members were offered record deals which they continued to reject as they wanted to get a deal for the entire group. However, they eventually gave up on this and splintered into the group called 'Sade.' Sade's debut album, Diamond Life, came out in 1994.The album immediately set Sade up as it scored several hits. 'Your Love Is King' reached #54 on the Hot 100 and #35 on the R&B charts. 'Smooth Operator' reached #5 on the Hot 100 and reached #5 on the R&B charts, bringing Sade to the public eye. The album's third single, 'Hang On To Your Love,' reached #14 on the R&B charts. The album rode on the success of its singles and over time it eventually went 4X platinum. Promise, Sade's sophomore album, continued the success with the singles 'The Sweetest Taboo,' and 'Never As Good As The First time.' The single 'The Sweetest Taboo,' was another top 5 hit for Sade on the Hot 100 and reached #3 on the R&B charts. 'Never As Good As The First Time' scored comparable success, reaching #20 on the Hot 100 and #8 on the R&B charts. Promise was Sade's first album to go 2X platinum. 1988 saw the release of Sade's third album, Stronger Than Pride. The album scored Sade her first #1 hit on the R&B charts with 'Paradise' and had hits with 'Nothing Can Come Between Us' which reached #3 on the R&B charts, and 'Turn My Back On You' which reached #12. Once again, Sade scored an album that went 3X platinum. Despite another four year break between albums, Sade's fourth album, Love Deluxe, which came out in 1992, also scored tremendous success, going 4X platinum. The album did well because of its well-known single, 'No Ordinary Love' which reached #28 on the Hot 100 and #9 on the R&B charts. It's second single 'Kiss Of Life,' had strong success as well, reaching #10 on the R&B charts. In 2000, Sade released her final album, Lovers Rock, and continued her past success. The album quickly went 2X platinum and eventually went 3X platinum. The album's biggest single, 'By Your Side' was a dance hit but didn't really make an impact on the other charts. Sade moved to Madrid, Spain in 1986.On Friday, 13 January 1989, in the old castle of Jolajas in Guadalajara, Spain, she married Carlos Scola, a Spanish filmmaker. The marriage was short-lived however and In 1991 Sade divorced Scola and moved back to London. In 1995 Sade moved to Ocho Rios, Jamaica, where she lived with Bob Grubble, a retired Indian singer/Jamaican Producer . On 21 July 1996 she gave birth to her daughter Ila.

~Michael 'D'Angelo' Archer ~ D'Angelo was born in 1974 in Richmond, Virginia. The son of a Pentecostal minister. He began teaching himself piano as a very young child, and at age 18, he won the amateur talent competition at Harlem's Apollo Theater three weeks in a row. He was briefly a member of a hip-hop group called I.D.U. and signed a publishing deal with EMI in 1991. D'Angelo was one of the founding fathers and leading lights of the neo-soul movement of the mid- to late '90s, which aimed to bring the organic flavor of classic R&B back to the hip-hop age. Modeling himself on the likes of Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Prince, Curtis Mayfield, and Al Green, D'Angelo's influences didn't just come across in his vocal style — like most of those artists, he wrote his own material and frequently produced it as well, helping to revive the concept of the R&B auteur. His debut album, Brown Sugar, gradually earned him an audience so devoted that the follow-up, Voodoo, debuted at number one despite a five-year wait in between. His first major success came in 1994 as a writer/producer, helming the single "U Will Know" on the Jason's Lyric soundtrack; it featured a one-time, all-star R&B aggregate dubbed Black Men United. That helped lead to his debut solo album, 1995's Brown Sugar.The album slowly generated sales, only proving popular after the hit single "Lady" began receiving a lot of airplay. The single 'Lady' was a Top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. Many critics' considered the album one of the best of the year. Brown Sugar slowly caught on with R&B fans looking for an alternative to the hip-hop soul dominating the urban contemporary landscape; along with artists like Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill, and Maxwell, D'Angelo became part of a retro-leaning, neo-soul revivalist movement. Brown Sugar received enormously complimentary reviews and sold over two million copies, and D'Angelo supported it with extensive touring over the next two years. He released his debut album, Brown Sugar, in 1995. His first two studio albums, Brown Sugar and Voodoo, have garnered much commercial and critical acclaim, and have been cited as "two of the most excellent and singular R&B albums of the past 15 years" . Rock critic Robert Christgau has dubbed him as "R&B Jesus". For five years, little was heard from D'Angelo except for various soundtrack appearances. Yet in 2000, D'Angelo released the popular Voodoo. The album debuted at number 1 and won 2 Grammy Awards. The album is most known for D'Angelo's nudity, as his song 'Untitled (How Does It Feel)' had a video in which a nude D'Angelo performs with no accompaniment. the video was immensely popular and has been voted one of the greatest videos of all time. For most of his life, D'Angelo had been a chubby introvert, and the idea of standing half-naked on a New York soundstage flaunting his new body in front of cameras was something he initially resisted. Eventually he was convinced by a director who now regrets the repercussions of that video. After "Untitled" propelled D'Angelo into mainstream stardom, he would often battle crippling self-doubt to the point where he would cancel performances. The pressure of living up to the image of "Untitled" was too much. The six-pack once covered in beaded sweat had become more important than the music, than the art. D'Angelo, once viewed as a musician at the forefront of the neo-soul movement, was now expected to perform shirtless. He had become that naked guy on that video. Outside of his music career, D'Angelo has a son named Michael Jr. with singer Angie Stone and a daughter, Imani. In 2005, D'Angelo hit a difficult spot as he was arrested with charges of marijuana possession, possession of a controlled substance and drunk driving. He was given a fine and suspended sentence and had his driver's license revoked. He also received a three-year suspended sentence for cocaine posession. In late 2005, D'Angelo was criticaly injured when the SUV he was riding in hit a fence and threw him from the vehicle. He has been released from the hospital and is recovering from multiple rib injuries and bruises. D'Angelo is said to be working on a third album, James River. After a long period of inactivity, D'Angelo has made guest appearances on several albums, including releases by J Dilla, Common, Red Hot & Riot and The RH Factor. In August 2006 he begun collaborations with Common and Q-Tip. He also entered discussions with Jermaine Dupri on how to market what appears to be a forthcoming LP, though the official news of a release has not been made public yet. Although music for his own album has yet to materialize, D'Angelo was featured on the song "Imagine", by Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre, from his album Tha Blue Carpet Treatment, released on November 21, 2006. On April 17, 2007 a new song called "Really Love" was leaked on Triple J Radio in Australia by Questlove D'Angelo also had a guest appearance on Common's 2007 album, Finding Forever on the track, "So Far to Go", a song that first appeared on J Dilla's 2006 release, The Shining. After his 10 August 2007 court proceeding, he confirmed that new music is "in the works" although the album remains untitled On June 24, 2008, Virgin EMI released an enhanced greatest hits CD/DVD which will include top hits, rare tracks & seven previously unreleased music videos from D'Angelo. According to the press release, the new collection is titled "The Best So Far, " "because D'Angelo is far from finished, currently writing and recording his highly anticipated next musical chapter." There will also be a digital album, video downloads, and ringtones available on the day of its release. In November 2008, D'Angelo's collaboration with Q-Tip was officially confirmed with the release of the Q-Tip album The Renaissance which features D'Angelo on the track Believe. His third studio album, set to be titled James River, has been said to be released in 2009.D'Angelo has revealed, not only that his 2009 album will be called James River, but the legendary Prince, will be working heavily on the disc. Apparently the collaboration list, reads like a who's who in the R&B, neo soul movement. Below, his manager, said of the upcoming album: "James River,” D’Angelo’s first studio effort in nearly 9 years, is also sporting a collaboration with Gnarls Barkley’s Cee-Lo Green. Green joins Raphael Saadiq, Mark Ronson, and Roy Hargrove, who have already contributed to D’Angelo’s forthcoming album. In addition to “James River,” D’Angelo is plotting a return to the stage with a summer tour." The man with his once carved body is now more than 40 pounds overweight. He's struggled with drug abuse, alcoholism, and depression.
