'Blackstreet Schedule'

'

As one of the most talked about R&B groups to come out of the 90s, Blackstreet was established by new jack swing visionary Teddy Riley after the fall of his outfit, Guy. Riley longed to get back into performing and founded Blackstreet in 1991, and the group has released a slew of R&B hits ever since. Blackstreet boasts a rather impressive repertoire of songs and continues to captivate audiences with their dazzling live shows.

'Blackstreet Background'

Blackstreet crystallized back in 1991 with Teddy Riley and Chauncy Hannibal at the helm. The original lineup included Hannibal, Levi Little, Joseph Stonestreet and Riley, the new jack swing pioneer. Dave Hollister replaced Stonestreet, however, prior to issuing their eponymous first album. Their first effort proved to be successful and yielded Joy, Booti Call and Before I Let You Go. The latter cracked the Top 10. They followed up their self-titled album with Another Level (1996), which served as their mainline to commercial success. No Diggity, featuring Dr. Dre, rocketed to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the fall of 1996. It also earned the Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals in 1998.

In an interview, Riley explained that he was the only one who believed in 'No Diggity' at first. Lucky for fans, it was a good thing he did. He said, When I brought it to Interscope, they couldn't hear it. Jimmy Iovine wanted to go with '(Money Can't) Buy Me Love,' so (Interscope executive) Step Johnson and I got together with (Blackstreet manager) Madeline Nelson, and we pressed up copies to send to the radio stations. And radio went on it hard. But what really made Jimmy come around was Dr. Dre told Jimmy, 'When Teddy does this record, I want to be in this video.' And I had said, 'No, Dr. Dre cannot be in my video unless he gives me 16 bars.'

The album additionally produced Don't Leave Me - another Top 40 smash. Another Level claimed platinum certification four times in the U.S. and charted at No. 3 on the Billboard chart. Their album, Finally, arrived in 1999, and was in the Top 10 for just a week. Blackstreet's momentum had winded down. Compounded with their decline in commercial success were tensions within the group as well as with their record label, which led to the group's demise. Riley and Hannibal eventually resolved their issues and revived the group, joined by Eric Williams and Mark Middleton. Level II was spawned from their reunion and was issued in 2003.
