Dru Hill - We’re Not Making Love No More (1997)

[thechanelmuse]

Lucy Pearl is one of the dopest groups of all-time. 

This is a statement, not a debate. Go argue with someone else lol

Lucy Pearl initially came together as a “one and done” supergroup, but would’ve put out a sophomore project, as this collective, if Raphael didn’t postpone the release of their album for months...withholding Dawn’s coins as an artist on his label. Never go for a verbal agreement. Get the shit in writing, date it, and everybody sign off on it. 

Raphael told Dawn he couldn’t pay her before the project drops. But whatever she needs, he’ll make a way and get it. They go way back to high school days. Fast forward to 5 months of their album’s delay. Dawn came a knocking cause the bank came a knocking about her $1500 mortgage payment for her home. Raphael told her, as his artist, that she gotta go get it somewhere else 🙃. 

Poof goes her house to the bank and down goes her credit.

“Spend yo money baby” Chile... Back in the day, the rumor was Dawn used to break up groups. Tuh. Jus👏🏽 tice👏🏽 for my girl. 

Them damn near slave music contract stories back then smh. I have many of them thumbtacked in my brain. Like Dawn and the members of En Vogue only getting paid 2 pennies each per record sold. Two copper Lincolns. That was the deal for their first two albums... They were signed to a production company signed that was signed to the major. Never mind that Teri was dating the (manipulative) producer, putting her emotions before her and the girls’ business 🤦🏽‍♀️ smh. 

En Vogue’s producers and higher ups got mansions off of them. Meanwhile, Dawn had a $700 apartment she was struggling to pay. Then got evicted and moved back with her parents...while they were one of the biggest girl groups at that time, selling over $20 million. 

They still don’t beat Dry Hill tho. They had to split one penny per record sold. Chile I—...

What Tip said: “Industry rule number four-thousand-and-eighty, record company people are shady.”

Anyway, someone brought up SisQó as part of this whole Kendrick/Drake thing (Drake fucking wishes), and it reminded me of this perfect performance. The horse! KOOL MOE DEE! Dru Hill! Surprise Stevie Wonder at the end! The pageantry! The showmanship! The Janet Jackson reference! The fucking purple suit!
