Day 26 Is BACK and in a big way!
All five members, Robert Curry, Willie Taylor, Michael McCluney, Brian Andrews, and Qwanell Mosley have reunited and are ready to bring back the R&B music that we all love to sing and groove to.
Their first single “BullShit” is the first single off of their upcoming EP entitled ‘The Return’ which is slated for release on June 26. The group has confirmed with PLUM that this album is their most personal album to date. Each of the members have either penned- and co-penned songs on the new album and admit that they have EVOLVED as men and musicians.
Here’s a brief history for new readers and or r&b music lovers:
” Day26’s story is already well-known to their fans, millions of whom tuned in watch it unfold on MTV’s Making the Band 4 (Which became the highest rated show in MTV history). When Sean “Diddy” Combs put out the call for vocalists in January of 2007, he was looking for talented newcomers with superstar potential and a tireless work ethic. What he got when Robert, Will, Brian, Mike and Qwanell (who later resigned from the group in December of 2009), was more than he or the fans could have ever anticipated. “
On August 26, 2007, the lives of five young men were changed forever. On that day, they became DAY26. DAY26’s self-titled debut album enter the record books as the biggest-selling debut album from a male R&B group in the 17-year history of SoundScan. The album – which included the hit singles, “Got Me Going” and “Since You Been Gone” – exploded into the #1 spot on the SoundScan/Billboard 200 in its first week of release, while also topping Billboard’s “Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums” chart. “
The group split in 2012 to pursue solo careers [which they’ve supported each other on] and the five members are now RE-UNITED.
