AboutBlaque was an American girl group that had a string of hits in the late 1990s to early 2000's.
The group's name stood for Believing, Life, Achieving, Quest, Unity, Everything.
Their debut self-titled album, Blaque, released in 1999 had sold more than 1.5 million copies and was certified Platinum. The group's debut included the gold selling single 808, the international hit Bring It All To Me with featured vocals from artist JC Chasez (although the song was credited to have NSYNC as the songs featured artist), and a third single, I Do.
In 2000, the girls starred in and made their acting debuts in Bring It On [2000] (movie) where they played members of the opposing cheerleading squad, The Clovers. They also sang As If with a featured music video, a song that was included in the movie's soundtrack.
The group then went on hiatus from 2002 until 2007, releasing only three unsuccessful singles, Can't Get It Back, Ugly, and the international single I'm Good from the movie, Honey.
The girl group origins started with Natina Reed and Shamari Fears both moved to Atlanta, Georgia and met while in high school. Reed formed Blaque while Fears formed another group called Intrigue. Intrigue won a recording contract with Elektra Records, and Fears met up with Brandi Williams at a talent show while a member of that group. Fears left Intrigue to join up with Reed in Blaque and Williams joined the group shortly thereafter. Reed met Ronald Lopes while singing jingles to earn extra cash and he introduced her to his sister Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes of TLC. Lisa Lopes signed the group to her production company, Left Eye Productions.
Tragically in 2012, Natina Reed passed away due to being struck by a vehicle while crossing the road.
