THIS EVENT HAS PASSED

The torch bearers responsible for carrying R&B music into the new millennium was the labor of love for four immensely talented young singers who were and remain the quintessential example of superior entertainers. From their first single, "Tell Me" (what you want), Dru Hill has been giving fans what they need in the form of numerous classic love ballads and infectious dance songs that have provided countless beautiful memories for millions upon millions of music lovers the world over. Named after a popular Baltimore park, Dru Hill is comprised of “NOKIO”, “SISQO”, “SMOKE”, #nd “BLACK”. 

In a career that spans over two decades, Dru Hill has accomplished literally everything an R&B/Pop group could dream of achieving. From having a string of Top 40 #1 hit singles, multiplatinum selling albums, movie and television appearances, headlining sold out concert tours around the world, and to selling an eye-popping 40 million records worldwide. Proof of their immense global following was most evident when their reality show entitled “Keith Sweat’s Platinum House” became the highest rated series in the Centric network's history, proving their critics wrong that even after a significant absence from the public eye, fans still can’t get enough of Dru Hill. 

With a music library fit for royalty, boasting some of the biggest selling and most popular R&B songs of all time to include  "Tell Me", "5 Steps", "In My Bed", "Never Make a Promise", "How Deep Is Your Love", "These are the Times",  and "We're Not Making  Love No More",  they are considered by many music experts to be key players that helped  to define the 90's. 

Additionally, the group's music has helped  tremendously to bolster the sale of movies and soundtracks with their songs often having  been the lead single for blockbuster films like "Eddie"  (Tell Me), "How to be a Player"  (She's a Bad Mama Jama),  "Rush Hour" (How Deep is Your Love), “Wild Wild West” (Wild Wild West), and "Soul Food" (We're Not Making  Love No More). 

Since welcoming newest members in 2018, the group has only risen to new levels of greatness. Lending their incredible singing range to the highly anticipated sixth studio album, Second Coming. Dru Hill continues to solidify its legacy as one of the greatest groups of all time.
