Lucy Pearl was an American R&B supergroup formed in 1999 by Raphael Saadiq (formerly of Tony! Toni! Toné!), Ali Shaheed Muhammad (of A Tribe Called Quest), and Dawn Robinson (of En Vogue). Blending soulful vocals, hip-hop grooves, and funk-driven instrumentation, the trio created a distinctive sound that bridged classic soul with contemporary R&B. Their 2000 self-titled debut album earned critical acclaim for its smooth production and standout singles, establishing Lucy Pearl as a short-lived but influential force in turn-of-the-century R&B and neo-soul.
