November 21, 2014
(Detroit – November 18, 2014) MotorCity Casino Hotel is proud to welcome back Boyz II Men with
special guest Jai Fears to Sound Board on Friday, November 21, 2014 at 8:00 p.m.
Boyz II Men remains one of the most truly iconic R&B groups in music history. The group redefined
popular R&B and continues to create timeless hits that appeal to fans across all generations. Recently
celebrating their 20th anniversary this year, the band has penned and performed some of the most
celebrated classics of the past two decades. The group’s four Grammy Awards are just the tip of the
iceberg: throughout their 20-year career, Boyz II Men have also won a whopping nine American Music
Awards, nine Soul Train Awards, three Billboard Awards, and a 2011 MOBO Award for Outstanding
Contribution to Music.
The trio holds the distinction of being the best-selling R&B group of all time, with an astounding 60
million albums sold. And the reason is abundantly clear: for the past two decades Boyz II Men have
given fans a rich catalogue of hits filled with smooth harmonies and enduring themes. And for Boyz II
Men the hits just keep on coming—the group continues to craft new albums and bring their legendary
act to stages across the world.
Boyz II Men’s past hits include: “End of the Road,” “I’ll Make Love to You,” “One Sweet Day,”
“Motownphilly” and many others. And their recent albums have earned them major critical acclaim as
well. Their Decca label debut, Motown: A Journey Through Hitsville USA (Decca/Universal), on
November 13, 2007 earned them two Grammy Nominations.
