Blaque, an American girl group from Atlanta, Georgia, emerged in the late 1990s with a distinctive blend of R&B and pop. Comprised of Shamari Fears, Brandi Williams, and the late Natina Reed, the trio was mentored by Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes of TLC. Their 1999 self-titled debut album achieved Platinum status, featuring hits like "808" and "Bring It All to Me." In 1999, Billboard recognized Blaque as the 4th Best New Artist of the year. Beyond music, they appeared in the film "Bring It On" (2000). Despite challenges, including Reed's untimely passing in 2012, Blaque's legacy endures, influencing a generation of artists and fans.
