Tank with 112, Next, and more

Atlanta-based R&B group 112, founded by Michael Keith and mentored by Sean “Puffy” Combs, rose to fame with double Platinum albums "112" and "Room 112." Known for hits like “Cupid” and “Only You” featuring Notorious B.I.G. and Mase, they thrived during a VERZUZ battle against Jagged Edge. With Grammy accolades and a lasting legacy, 112 remains a celebrated name in R&B.

Next, hailing from Minneapolis, became late-'90s R&B icons with hits like "Too Close" and "Wifey." Known for suggestive lyrics and gospel-influenced harmonies, they achieved multi-platinum success with "Rated Next" under Arista. The group, mentored by Reverand James Grear, and Sounds of Blackness' Ann Nesby, worked with producers like KayGee and Darren Lighty. They released three albums before splitting in 2003. They reunited in 2018 with original members RL, T-Low, and Tweet.

R&B artist Tank has over 20 years in music with six #1 hits. Known for "Maybe I Deserve," he’s written for stars like Aaliyah and Beyonce. His albums "Force of Nature" and "Sex, Love & Pain" earned acclaim. Tank also hosts the R&B Money Podcast and acts in films.
