Troop (Band) BI0:
Troop is an American R&B group from Pasadena, California, United States. The group has had three number-one singles and ten top-ten singles on the Billboard R&B Singles chart. They have also completed five albums, which include three certified gold and one certified platinum album. TROOP is an acronym for “Total Respect Of Other People”. The group is most notable for a series of number-one R&B hits, including popular cover versions of the songs “All I Do Is Think of You” and “Sweet November”, originally performed by musical acts The Jackson 5 and The Deele, respectively. They also had a number-one hit with the original song “Spread My Wings”.
Troop, consisting of childhood friends Steve Russell, Allen McNeil, John Harreld, Rodney Benford, and Reggie Warren, soon signed to Atlantic Records and released their debut single “Mamacita” from their self-titled debut album in 1988. “Mamacita” reached Number 2 on the Billboard’s R&B Chart.
Troop’s second album Attitude included the hit singles “Spread My Wings” and “All I Do Is Think of You” (a Jackson 5 cover), which were both number one on the Billboard R&B singles chart, and remained in the top 10 for several weeks. Attitude was certified platinum in 1990. Their third album Deepa was released in 1992, from which the single “Sweet November” made number one on the Billboard R&B singles chart. The group followed up Deepa with two more albums, A Lil’ Sumpin’ Sumpin’ (1994) and Mayday (1998), both of which were re-released in 2005.
