Michael Bivins first stepped onto the music scene at the young age of 13 as the founding member of the legendary R&B group New Edition. In 1990, Bivins, along with N.E. members Ricky Bell and Ronnie DeVoe branched out to form the hip-hop trio Bell Biv DeVoe/BBD, releasing the platinum selling album, Poison, and garnering the 1991 Billboard Award for Best New Artist. |

Dubbed the "World's Greatest Entertainer" for his unrivaled ability to rock a crowd, Harlem native Doug E. Fresh began his musical career at age 13. The originator of the human beat box (vocally simulating the sound of drums and other musical instruments), he spawned an international hip-hop trend. Throughout his 20 plus years in music, Fresh has collaborated with the world's biggest artist including Tupac Shakur, Biggie Smalls, Eminem, P. Diddy, Dr. Dre, Prince, Roberta Flack, Chaka Kahn, and Stevie Wonder. |

Being the brother of an established entertainer can be tough, but Brooklyn native Tony Rock has been able to successfully elude the shadows of his older sibling and step into his own limelight as a skillful comedian, actor, and executive producer. After four successful seasons on the Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith executive produced sitcom, “All of Us” (2003-2007), he has gone on to star in a series of movies, including “Hitch,” "Three Can Play That Game," HBO’s “Life Support,” and the box-office hit, “Think Like A Man.” |
