INTRODUCING... Big Brovaz (UK Act)
Hey guy's here is another one of my 'INTRODUCING...' posts and this time it's the UK urban group 'Big Brovaz'. They first burst onto the UK urban scene in 2002 as a 20-piece when they released a mixtape called 'Big Brovaz-Watching You', and due to the success of this mixtape they were signed by a major label, but now as a six-piece. The group then went on to gain commercial success in 2002 with their debut album 'Nu Flow'. The single 'Nu Flow' debuted into the #3 spot in UK charts whilst the album reached a peak of number #6. They later went on to have three top 10 singles including 'OK', 'Baby Boy' and Favourite Things' which went on to become their biggest hit to date entering the UK Singles chart at #2. Their fifth single from the album 'Ain't What You Do' was their first single to chart outside the top 10 and reached a dissapointing #15. This led them to leave their debut album alone and concentrate on releasing new material. They came back in 2004 wih a new song 'I Wanna Thank You' which came from the 'Scooby Doo 2 OST' and was their lowest charting position at the time and went in at #17. Things werent's looking good for the band and when member Flawless was caught smuggling cannabis at LAX Airport and due to the groups 'No Drugs' image he was sacked from them group leaving them with only five members. They went on to release what was going to be their first single 'Yours Fatally' from their second album at the end of 2004 and reached a better but still dissapointing #15. This led to their second album being pushed back to a much later date. In 2006 they made an official COMEBACK and their new single was called 'Hangin' Around' and it was revealed that they were now a four-piece after member Dion wanted to start a family in Australia. The single was their most dissapointing single to date and barely made the top 75 UK singles at #57! Also in 2006 a documentary on Channel 4 followed meber J-Rock for a whole month as he tried to get off weed, and even admitted that he never did a proffesional engagement with the group until he'd had a spliff which questions the groups 'No Drugs' image and qquestions were reaised as to why he wasn't saked from teh group and ex-member Flawless was!!! Their second album 'Re-Entry was then pushed back to April '06, then June '06, then September '06, then November '06 and then came the end of 2006 and still no signe of their second studio album 'Re-Entry'. At the beginning of 2007 the video for their new single 'Big Bro Thang' surfaced on their website and along with the album was set to be released in January but once again the release date was pushed back. Things weren't looking good for the group and their single has been given a CONCRETE release date of March 5 and the album 'Re-Entry was given a CONCRETE release date of March 19 so whether they do promotion or not these are the final release dates and it cannot be pushed back even further. I am a huuuuge fan of Big Brovaz and would urge any person reading this in the Uk to buy their single and album in march to secure their record deal and place them back where they belong at the top of the charts! As a taster i have put their new single 'Big Bro Thang' up for download!!!
