      Consequently, Boyz II Men is among the music industry's elite with regard to time spent at number one in Billboard history with 50 cumulative weeks, ranking sixth behind Drake, the Beatles, Rihanna, Elvis Presley and Carey. Furthermore, when "On Bended Knee" took the number one spot away from "I'll Make Love to You", Boyz II Men became only the third artists ever (after the Beatles and Presley) to replace themselves at the top of the Billboard Hot 100.[4] These achievements were enough to earn Boyz II Men recognition as Billboard magazine's biggest boy band during the period of 1987 to 2012.[5] Boyz II Men has received four Grammy Awards.

      In the UIK Boyz To Men are revered as well as in Australia. In fact a couple of years ago they were on a UK Talk Show where they promoted a CD doing interpretations of other people's Songs, and they serenaded the Co-Host Angela Griffin with their version of "Open Arms' by Journey and the poor woman almost lost it. In fact everytime a Boy Band auditions on the X Factor Shows they almost always talk about how Boyz To Men influenced Them. They also are big fans of American R & B like Harmonizin Homeiz and they've done Cover Version of Philly Soul Songs

    That whole album was fire. Simpin ain’t easy etc. Here in Australia, a lot of the best hiphop and gangsta rap didn’t make the charts, so albums spread via word of mouth. Boyz2men, BBD and the whole new jack swing genre had so much impact of me as a young teen.

In the 2060s there will be middle-aged people who think fondly about 2020s music because it will always remind them of their childhood.

    I don't get y'all with this, "See, no twerking. No half naked women. They weren't obsessed with flashing bling... What happened to real music?"
    Folks, there were plenty of artists doing that back in the day. Bobby Brown had all sorts of fine women in tight clothes. No twerking... how about da butt? Boys II Men were just a different kind of group.
    Older people shamed you back then. Don't shame the youth now. Love what you love.
