Basic Black

“ A redefined moment can never take the life out of vision. We are the past, present, and future. Music will forever be our connection to the soul”. - Basic Black  Basic Black is a world renowned R&B music group that was co-founded by multi-platinum grammy nominated music producers, Kelvin “K.B.” Bradshaw and Lloyd “Spec” Turner. In the early beginnings, Basic Black was known as the hottest band in their hometown of Columbus, Georgia. It was during that time that music mogul, the late legendary Gene Griffen (uncle of music producer Teddy Riley) first saw great potential in the group. Not too long after his discovery, Basic Black was chosen to be the professional back up band for one of Griffen’s and Riley’s R&B groups called “Today”. "Moving to New York City was the best thing for the group", says K.B. and Spec. It later paid off as the R&B group, Basic Black got their big break and signed to Motown Records. After the release of their self- titled album in the early 90”s, Basic Black soon became a sensation among die-hard New Jack Swing fans. While on a productive hiatus, Basic Black has found an innovative approach to this new era of music as they welcomed new members, Anthony & Sean. This Atlanta R&B group continues to impact the lives of people around the world today as they spread the message of love. With their newly released single, "Always", Basic Black makes their mark back onto music charts and radio stations with their hip-hop harmonious sound.
