Boyz II Men perform at Pearl River Resort
TUNICA — See Boyz II Men per- forms at Pearl River Resort’s Silverstar Hotel & Casino on Friday, July 5. Boyz II Men, an iconic R&B vocal group, emerged from the vibrant music scene of Philadelphia in the late 1980s. Currently comprised of original members Nathan Morris, Wanya Morris and Shawn Stock-
man, the group honed their harmonies during their formative years in local tal- ent shows before catching the attention of Motown Records.
Their debut album, Cooleyhighharmony (1991), catapulted them to super stardom with hits like “Motownphilly” and “It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday.”
They reached even greater heights with the release of II (1994), which spawned timeless classics like “I’ll Make Love to You” and “End of the Road,” the latter holding a record for the longest-running number one single on the Billboard Hot 100.
Boyz II Men’s smooth harmonies, heartfelt lyrics, and soulful melodies en- deared them to audiences worldwide, earning them four Grammy Awards and a legacy as one of the best-selling R&B groups of all time.
Beyond their initial success, they have sustained their popularity through col- laborations, tours, and residencies in Las Vegas, maintaining their status as cultur- al icons in the realm of contemporary R&B.
Tickets to see Boyz II Men start at $50. Visit etix.com to purchase tickets to Boyz to Men or buy them through the Pearl River Resort website at pearlriverresort. com, or by calling (866) 44PEARL.
