      Shiquila S Shiquila S Boyz II Men continues to tour and sell out shows. They have a steady residency in Las Vegas since 2013. They have toured with New Kids on the Block, BbD, En Vogue. A lot of their shows are solo. Majority of their shows are sold out. Just cause you are not checking for them doesn’t mean they fell off. A lot of artists do things outside of music. Shawn has a foundation and business with his wife. He also release an EP and is working on his solo album. Nate flips houses and Wanya is working on his music. They are still very much Boyz II Men and very much in demand. They are legendary. I have met them several times and they have been nothing but nice. Sure ppl have bad days and they don’t feel 100% like themselves but assholes are not them. Not after the 1st album. They have admitted their faults and owned up to wrong doings. Nate tells the story of turning down I’ll Make Love to You as well as Amazed which earned another group a Grammy. Don’t go based off what you think you know but based off facts. I have met them, the band, managers, staff and all of them are nice. One experience doesn’t define a person. Ppl think my ass is mean but that’s their perspective of an interaction and not necessarily me. The last album they release was 2014. They recorded a song with Snoop last Xmas and currently working Country and Bluegrass artists.

      @@KittyInkel def went to Lonestar. Hey, many big artists turn down songs that become number 1’s. They can’t know for sure or take everything offered to them. Plus, the song sounded better wi Lonestar than it did with Boyz II Men. I don’t blame them for turning it down. Or night bot have been as big of a hit with them, just like End of the Road might be as big of a hit with Lonestar. Actors turn down roles that become hit movies all the time as well. Maybe the actor that does take it makes the movie bigger than it would be with the artist that turns it down

I’m not saying that’s the case here, I’m just saying “a hit dog will holler” in this type of case doesn’t mean the person responding is guilty. That saying goes for when someone is making a general statement about your group, be it black people, women, men, and you respond saying it’s bs, people will say a hit dog will holler since they weren’t necessarily talking about you and you got offended.

    That explains a LOT actually. Because I wondered why they worked with big name producers less and less after II, and they started writing and producing their own stuff, which was inferior. This story leads me to think Jheryl Busby kept things together and then it was basically a wrap once they left Motown. They thought they were hot shit and didnt need anybody and the second they were on their own, the hits stopped.

    I love how the first part of this clip relates to the second. In the first part he talks about having all this success, but not really having it because all the money was sitting in escrow that he couldn't touch. So he was successful, but still came home to see his mom come home from working a blue collar job. That's keeping it real. That's what keeps you humble. That's keeping the success in check. And he did make good money doing remixes, but it's not "F The World" money. In the second part of this clip, he talks about B2M, who do have "F The World Money" and success after the sales of their first album and they let it blow up their heads while Dallas just watches this and sees how ridiculous this is. And you know he's telling the truth when fewer and fewer people (artists, producers, etc) wanted to work with them even after the success of II

    I believe every word out of Dallas mouth. I use to see him often in Atlanta back in the 90's, always a cool down to earth brotha. He's the type when you see him inside the gas station he'll speak to you first. He would talk to you outside, he never acted like he was the shyt, when he really was. I remember he was smashing Chilli way before Usher. I think they have a child together, not sure.
