Havok214 2009-09-29 19:47:31 Total Posts: 407 | So lately I've been spending alot of time listening to albums from alot of relatively unknown and obscure artist and these guys caught my eye (or my ear I guess I should say). I happen to see their album at a 2nd hand CD shop so I bought it and I have to say I"m pleasantly surprised. These guys could SANG and their album is the ****. Only 1 song (out of 12) that I dont like but other than that, its pure mid 90's greatness. I reccommend it to anyone. Some other groups I'm feelin are Mind Heart and Soul, Me-2-U and Front Page | |||

R&B Guru 2009-09-30 14:56:51 Total Posts: 2527 | haha yea, it's amazing how many 90s R&B guy groups there were. A lot of them were derivative but they put out tons of great material. I could probably make a 400+ song playlist of all my favorite songs by 90s R&B guy groups.. I will check out more of IV Xample though :) | |||

I remember everyone back then knew them for their one hit "I'd Rather Be Alone", but I loved them for the song that I seen them perform on the show All That called "From The FOol" A couple years back, I remember I downloaded another song by them.. something about Emotions.. that was a good one too! I confess though, I'd always get ix xample & joose mixed up. | |||
R&B Guru 2009-10-02 05:46:25 Total Posts: 2527 | I watch these shows like All That and Sister, Sister back in the day, and they always had such amazing guest performers on it. It's not fair lol. | |||

R&B Guru 2009-10-02 11:38:22 Total Posts: 2527 | Aye, but still, the beauty of music is it doesn't have to be an A or B. Boyz II Men were some of the greats, btu there's still plenty of room for middle of the road good acts. Hell, today, they'd be the best in the business. | |||
JohnnyAwesome24 2009-10-06 08:48:49 Total Posts: 1928 | By miles..... and Ilikeit, if Boyz keeps on the road that they are on, they are going to ruin themselves to me. I miss Mike so much, not exactly sure why. I don't care if he is in an effing wheel chair, bring him back! | |||
Havok214 2009-10-06 18:40:54 Total Posts: 407 | I just learned that one of the lead singers (BC) has a solo album. DLing as we speak. Also, the group plans to come back with another album in 2010 | |||
d0rk 2009-10-06 23:22:47 Total Posts: 359 | Havok, where do you find such things? I had a hard time just finding those two songs in mp3... which are called An Angel & Candyman | |||
JohnnyAwesome24 2009-10-07 04:06:35 Total Posts: 1928 | I read about the reunion on youtube, not sure if it is true. Maybe Havok has a more reliable source. | |||
R&B Guru 2009-10-08 08:11:09 Total Posts: 2527 | lol aye, where DID you find that? | |||
