They have exactly ONE song I fukked with.

I still remember that performance where they were all jumping in unison when they first came out. Fat members included.

Dru Hill definitely had some certified classics.

I really don't know what happened.. I think sisqo's solo joint took all their momentum.

certified by who? and what do you mean you don't know what happened? sisquo went solo, the thong song happened, he no longer could draw after people realized how terrible that weak shyt was and how gay he is.

I'm not sure of their record sales but they were definitely popular back in the day. They have shît that still gets played at cookouts and house parties and whatnot. They've released some great music.

Yea.. I think his gay swag got turned up even more when he went solo which turned out to be a bad look...

I just read the Wikipedia page: apparently they received a solo contracts along a group contract

and sisqo's shît did so well that everybody else shît was pushed back including the group joint

Not for nothin', all of those 90s R&B groups are wasted potential. the whole genre is going thru a post-techno phase now, and the shyt is bewildering than a bytch

Incredibly dope group.

But Sisqo thought he was Luther Vandross. That ego'll kill a good group every time. I remember this cat was on BET back then talkin' about Dru Hill was just the "springboard" for his real career. This cat was feelin' himself way too much. He dropped the "Thong Song", but bricked on everything else after that. Then called them cats up to put the group back together after he finally humbled up. LOL!!

What a shame. No other male R&B group could fukk with them during the late 90s. Sisqo had one of the worst stan bases too when he went solo. nikkas spray painting their heads silver and shyt :dahell:
