For Real

For True were a modern R&B vocal act who found its way to the wake of brand-new jack swing, although ballads and gradual jams that dominated their output were rooted even more in traditional spirit — and singers such as for example Deniece Williams and Anita Baker — than it had been in hip-hop. Produced in 1993, the group highlighted performers Latanyia Baldwin, Necia Bray, Josina Elder, and Wendi Williams. They debuted on major-label A&M the next calendar year with It’s an all natural Thang, an record that created three charting singles, including “YOU DO NOT Wanna Miss,” a high 30 Billboard Sizzling hot R&B/Hip-Hop strike that narrowly skipped the upper fifty percent of the Sizzling hot 100. In 1995, these were area of the all-women ensemble noticed in “Independence (Theme from Panther),” plus they also made an appearance over the multi-platinum, Babyface-produced soundtrack for Waiting around to Exhale with “Like IS GOING TO BE Waiting around in the home.” The last mentioned melody was also included over the group’s Totally free in 1996. Issued on Dallas Austin’s Rowdy label, Totally free, the next and last For True full-length, was highlighted with the Motown throwback “Like I REALLY DO,” which peaked at amount 72 over the Sizzling hot 100. From then on, the members proceeded to go their separate methods. Especially, Williams supplied the singing tone of voice of Dorothy Dandridge — as portrayed by Halle Berry — within the 1999 tv film Presenting Dorothy Dandridge.
