B2K

B2K was an American male R&B; music group made up of Dreux "Lil' Fizz" Frederic, DeMario "Raz-B" Thornton , Jarell "J-Boog" Houston and Omari "Omarion" Grandberry. The group was founded in 2001, but disbanded in 2004, after allegations of manager, Chris Stokes, mishandled the boys' finances. Former member Omarion, along with Stokes, claimed it was untrue. There has been talks of a possible reunion, minus Omarion, but there has been no official confirmation. However, the song "Body Up" was released in 2008, and features Raz-B on lead vocal.

B2K's first album B2K, released in 2002, produced the hits "Uh Huh," "Gots Ta Be" and "Why I Love You." Their second album, Pandemonium, was released in December, of that same year. They received their first number one hit from the song "Bump, Bump, Bump." They also released four additional singles from that album, "Girlfriend," "Bump That," "Everything" and "What A Girl Wants."

The group was featured on the soundtrack of Barbershop, and they appeared in the movie You Got Served.
