  • Dru Hill is an American singing group, most popular during the late 1990s, whose repertoire included R&B, soul, and gospel music. Founded in Baltimore, Maryland and active since 1992, Dru Hill recorded seven Top 40 hits, and is best known for the R&B #1 hits "In My Bed", "Never Make a Promise", and "How Deep Is Your Love". Tamir "Nokio" Ruffin was the group's founder; his bandmates included main lead singer Mark "Sisqó" Andrews, Larry "Jazz" Anthony, and James "Woody Rock" Green. Signing to Island Records through Haqq Islam's University Records imprint, Dru Hill released two successful LPs before separating for a period from late 1999 to 2002, during which time Sisqó and Woody released solo albums. While Woody's Soul Music LP was a moderate success in the gospel music industry, Sisqó's Unleash the Dragon LP and its hit single "Thong Song" were major pop successes, and established Sisqó as a household name outside of Dru Hill. In 2002, by then part of the Def Soul record label, the group reunited and added fifth member Rufus "Scola" Waller to the lineup for their third LP, Dru World Order.
  • Dru Hill ist eine US-amerikanische, von Dr. Dre entdeckte, R&B-Gruppe, die Ende der Neunziger große Erfolge mit mehreren Charthits feiern konnte. Gegründet wurde die Gruppe 1992 in Baltimore, Maryland von Tamir „Nokio“ Ruffin. Die weiteren Bandmitglieder Mark „Sisqo“ Andrews, Larry „Jazz“ Anthony und James „Woody“ Green kannten sich seit der Schulzeit. Dru Hill bekam einen Vertrag bei Island Records und brachte zwei erfolgreiche Alben heraus, bis sie sich von 1999 bis 2002 trennten. In dieser Zeit veröffentlichten Mark „Sisqo“ Andrews und James „Woody“ Green Soloalben. Im Jahr 2002 kam es zur Wiedervereinigung und Rufus „Scola“ Waller wurde als fünftes Mitglied der Gruppe aufgenommen. Als Teil des Def Soul Labels veröffentlichten sie ihr drittes Album. Ihr Hit How deep is your Love wurde als Song für den großen Kino-Kassenschlager Rush Hour mit Jackie Chan und Chris Tucker ausgewählt.
  • Dru Hill es un grupo americano de urban y hip-hop muy popular durante la década de los 90. Fundado en Baltimore, Maryland y activo desde 1992, Dru Hill han grabado siete éxitos Top 40, además de ser muy conocidos por sus #1 "In My Bed", "Never Make a Promise" y "How Deep is Your Love". Tamir "Nokio" Ruffin fue el fundador del grupo y el líder, y sus compañeros son el líder vocal Mark "Sisqó" Andrews, Larry "Jazz" Anthony y James "Woody" Green. Firmados por Island Records, Dru Hill grabó dos exitosos LPs antes de separarse por un periodo desde 1999 a 2002, época en la que Sisqó y Woody lanzaron sus propios álbumes en solitario. Mientras que el álbum de Woody tuvo algo de éxito en la industria de la música gospel, el LP Unleash the Dragon de Sisqó y el exitoso single "Thong Song" hizo de él un nombre conocido fuera de Dru Hill. En 2002, por entonces formando parte del sello Def Jam, el grupo se reunió de nuevo y se añadió un quinto miembro, Rufus "Scola" Waller, para la grabación del tercer álbum Dru World Order. El 18 de mayo de 2007, Dru Hill reapareció en una discoteca de Madrid haciendo un pequeño concierto, y avisando de que iban a realizar otro disco próximamente con todos los componentes del grupo.
  • Dru Hill est un quartette devenu quintette rnb, soul et gospel américain établi à Baltimore, Maryland et spécialiste en slow jams. Le fondateur du groupe est Tamir "Nokio" Ruffin mais le leader charismatique est Mark Andrews plus connu sous le nom de scène Sisqo. C'est d'ailleurs grâce à ce dernier que le groupe s'est forgé une solide réputation au sein du label Def Jam. Les autres membres sont Larry "Jazz" Anthony, James "Woody" Green et le tout dernier arrivé Rufus "Scola" Waller. Le style et la manière de chanter de Dru Hill ressemble beaucoup à celui de Jodeci. Ce qui valut au groupe beaucoup de comparaison avec les Jodeci et de critiques aussi. Deux de ses membres ont tenté l'aventure en solo, Woody en 2002 mais surtout Sisqo en 1999 avec son album Unleash The Dragon qui connut un très large succès partout dans le monde notamment grâce au single Thong Song (la chanson du string en français). Quant à Nokio, il est devenu consultant et dénicheur de talent pour le label Def Soul (c'est lui qui a découvert le boys band rnb 3rd Storee) qu'il a quitté pour s'occuper du jeune chanteur Trey Songz chez Atlantic Records.

Nel 2002, il gruppo si è riunito sotto l'etichetta Def Soul e con l'aggiunta di un quinto membro, Rufus "Scola" Waller, ed ha rilasciato un nuovo album: Dru World Order.
