  • II was the second regular studio album by boy band Boyz II Men, released in August 1994 on Motown Records. It contained the #1 singles "I'll Make Love To You" and "On Bended Knee", the latter of which replaced the former at the top of the Billboard Hot 100, making the group the third artist to replace themselves at #1 in the US after Elvis Presley and The Beatles and the first to achieve the feat in 30 years. "I'll Make Love to You" also spent 14 weeks at the top of the Hot 100 making them the first artist to achieve consecutive double digit runs at the top, with their prior single "End of the Road" topping the charts for 13 weeks and also equalled the record set by Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" for the longest run at the top, a record which they held previously with "End of the Road". Other singles released achieved major success, including "Water Runs Dry", which reached #2, and "Thank You", which reached #21. "Vibin'", however, only reached #52. The album itself debuted at #1 in the Billboard 200 with 350,000 copies sold. It spent a total of 5 weeks at #1 and was the third best-selling album in 1995 in the United States and sold 12 million copies in the United States; it was a hugely successful album there. It didn't make a huge impact in the UK, where it only made #17 on the albums chart. A Spanish language version, II: Yo Te Voy a Amar, was also issued. The spoken track produced by Tim an Bob "Khalil (Interlude)" is a tribute to their road manager Khalil Roundtree who was shot in Chicago, Illinois while the band was opening for MC Hammer's Too Legit to Quit tour. The album also won Best R&B Album at the 37th Grammy Awards.

  • II est le second album studio du quatuor vocal Boyz II Men, sorti en aout 1994 sur le label Motown Records. Il contient des grands succès comme "I'll Make Love To You" et "On Bended Knee", ce dernier remplacant le premier single à la première place du classement Billboard Hot 100, faisant ainsi de Boyz II Men le troisième groupe à se remplacer lui-même à la première place des classements aux Etats-Unis, après Elvis Presley et The Beatles, et le seul à y arriver en 30 ans. "I'll Make Love to You" resta 14 semaines au top du Hot 100 faisant du groupe le premier à obtenir deux singles successivements à la première place des classements et y restant chacun plus de 10 semaines avec leur single précédent "End Of The Road" atteignant la première place des classements durant 13 semaines, égalisant ainsi le record de Whitney Houston avec son titre "I Will Always Love You" pour le titre étant resté le plus longtemps à la première place des classements, record battu par "End Of The Road" puis par "I'll Make Love to You". D'autres singles sortirent dont "Water Runs Dry" qui atteignit la seconde place des classements et "Thank You" qui atteignit la 21 place. "Vibin'", cependant, atteignit seulement la 52 place.

Il resta 5 semaines à la première place et du la 3 meilleure vente d'album de l'année 1995 aux Etats-Unis, se vendant à 12 million de copies aux Etats-Unis. Ce fut donc un énorme succès.
