ailed as the best-selling R&B group of all time, this four-time Grammy-winning act has sold over 60 million recordings and is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year.
Boyz II Men cemented their musical success with earlier albums including “Cooleyhighharmony,” “The Remedy,” “Throwback Vol. 1,” “Full Circle,” “Legacy,” “Nathan Michael Shawn Wanya,” “Evolution” and “II.” In 2007, they once again took the international music scene by storm with the release of “Motown: A Journey Through Hitsville USA.” The Grammy-nominated album rose to No. 27 on the Billboard Top 200 and to No. 6 on the trade’s R&B albums chart – and sales in Europe were even stronger.
The trio released “Motown’s” successor – and the group’s latest album – in 2009. In “Love,” Boyz II Men tackled a diverse collection of songs, from Bonnie Raitt’s “I Can’t Make You Love Me” and Goo Goo Doll’s “Iris” to Journey’s “Open Arms” and Lonestar’s “Amazing.” The album also includes an a cappella version of Cyndi Lauper’s “Time After Time,” and “When I Fall in Love” features special guest Michael Bublé.
In addition to music-making, Boyz II Men have an intensive touring schedule, typically performing 150 to 200 concerts per year around the world. The boys of Boyz II Men, including Wanya Morris, Nate Morris and Shawn Stockman, are currently touring the U.S., Korea, Europe and the U.K. |
