    In this episode of We Sound Crazy, we're diving into the music journey of our guest, the multi-talented Q Parker. With nearly 25 years in the industry as part of the sensational R&B/Soul group, 112, he's earned a Grammy, and numerous platinum/gold albums. From his modest start in show choir to finding his place in the legendary group 112, his journey embodies the essence of divine timing. Signed by Diddy, he became a part of one of the most iconic R&B acts of the 90s, sharing the stage with Faith Evans and the Notorious B.I.G. under the banner of Bad Boy Entertainment. Moreover, as the visionary founder of NeWFAM Entertainment, he passionately fosters emerging talents, shaping the future soundscape of the industry.

    He is the foundation, his voice always stands out in the 112 harmonies all while blending perfectly 😭🔥 and he’s arguably the best singer in the group

      *YESSS* one thing I always loved about 112, all four of them sang! Mike was a quiet killer and needs his just due.

    Great conversation, I'm a super huge 112 fan I have all of their CDs/vinyls. I'm so glad I met 112 at an autograph signing back in 2017. Listening to this conversation took me back to the 90s hearing Q talk about how they got started which I already knew from reading magazines in the 90s. I also was a huge Bad Boy records fan, I can tell you every artists at the time signed to Bad Boy and about the artist.

    He had an album that was so good!! But you can't help but to miss the harmonies from the group

  • @MrBg76

    Janet Jackson, Brandy, and Tweet have the best background vocals & harmonies.

    112 have so many good quality songs. I’m glad they mentioned Nivea because they are right about her voice and unique sound. Brandy’s whole sound is around her layers and harmonies. Faith Evans also has beautiful backgrounds. Mariah is a beast though for vocal arrangements.

    112 inspired me to sing. I was 8 yrs old and in my head i was a member 😂

  • @tymartin2293
    @tymartin2293 5 місяців тому +1

    Them joints with Tim and Bob 🔥 🔥
    I'd put 112 discography against any R&B group. Not just singles but albums.

  • @studiouspersons4793
    @studiouspersons4793 2 місяці тому

    Yes there is no 112 without the complete 4. No 0.5, no 2/4ths, no half of twelve... 😂
    Shouts out to Commissioned! 1 of the best to do it.
    And there are so many faves for me but if I had to pick 4 faves it would be 'So Much Love' (Interlude), 'Playa', 'I Will Be There' & 'We Gon Be Alright'.

  • @GregSchroederJr

    112 had AMAZING bgvs! if anyone remembers the artist Frankie, i think he had a small stint with Bad Boy, they did some background on his project as well and it was too clean!

  • @Des_Armoni

    Dope interview! So glad y'all interviewed Q. This is the most honest I've heard him discuss the 112 breakup. Love the group as a whole and I agree it's time that they mend things out at least on a personal level which hopefully will lead to another musical reunion. Their last album as a duo was pretty good but it was missing their signature sound that Q & Daron help made.
    I loved hearing him talking about background vocals @15:40 he's right, his voice really stood out in the background vocals. I've listened to Take 6 before but I really need to get into Commissioned more. @ 28:40 Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, and Debra Killings really don't get their respect for how amazing their background vocals are.

    Love this interview: I know Q says that if it wasnt slim on the whole track it was slim and Q and i feel the problem with that is on album songs where Daron and Mike are on lead vocals, like Player, people think its Q singing instead which i find quite annoying

    Great guy first of all. Q is definitely foundational when it comes to the full sound of 112. That group that is performing now is not it. I’m not mad at them but it’s not it.
    I’m fortunate to be able to call him a brother
