Event Details
112
If anyone had told the soul boy members of 112—Q, Mike, Slim, and Daron -- that they’ll still be making records nine years after their self-titled debut dropped from r&b heaven, they might not have believed you.
“We thought we might make enough money to open a laundry or something,” Mike jokes. “We never thought we’d be sitting here talking about our fifth record.” Still, with a solid fan base, three platinum-plus albums, a Grammy and even Vibe magazine wondering in the 20 Questions when Atlanta’s premier soul singers would be releasing their next record, could a new chapter in the lives of 112 be far behind.
With the arrival of Pleasure & Pain, the men of 112 prove that their longevity isn’t a fluke. “We wanted people to feel the fire inside of us,” Mike informs. “There is so much negativity in music that we feel that God is using us to spread the message of love.” It’s time to screw the red light bulb back in, because 112 back.
From the first time one hears the raw romantics of 112’s newest single “U Already Know,” it’s obvious that these rhythmic Romeos have what it takes to make the sweethearts of girls across the world swoon. “Today, there is so much negativity in music. People are talking about killing, violence and pain; with all of that in the world, 112 is still all about love.” Produced by Focus and Sean Garrett, “U Already Know” sparkles and shines like fireworks on the 4th of July.
Although 112 had traveled the globe, all four members still call the catfish and cornbread capital of Georgia their home. And, what better place to record than back where they first sparked hits like “Peaches & Cream” and “Come See Me.” Explains Slim, “There is just this electrifying energy that we feel there, from the civil rights era of the past to Atlanta’s current status as a musical mecca, everything there is perfect.”
