He was too one dimensional in my book. I did like him and Dru Hill but in the days of the cookie cutter....they were cookies and crumbs.

Well the "thong-tha-thong-thong-thong" guy is also known as Sisqo.

Here is what he has been up to during his "solo years" according to wiki:

After Woody left the group (Dru Hill) in 1999 to pursue a solo career, it was decided that the other three members would do the same. Sisqó was the only member besides Woody to actually release their solo LP (Jazz recorded a solo LP that was shelved, and Nokio never finished his). Sisqó's solo debut, Unleash the Dragon, was released on Def Soul Records in November 1999. Unleash the Dragon sold moderately at first, until the February 2000 release of its second single, "Thong Song". A runaway hit, "Thong Song" and its follow-up, "Incomplete," were major hits on the Billboard Hot 100 charts, with "Thong Song" making it to number-three, and "Incomplete" going to number-one. The success later got Sisqó a Doll made of himself by Play Along Toys in 2001.

Conflicts within the group prevented Dru Hill from reuniting as planned in late 2000, and Sisqó set about recording a second solo LP. During this period, Sisqó branched out into television, hosting the dance competition program Sisqó's Shakedown on MTV, and film, taking on supporting roles in the films Get Over It (2001) with Kirsten Dunst and Snow Dogs with Cuba Gooding, Jr.. Although his second LP, Return of Dragon, released in June 2001, eventually went platinum, its singles "Can I Live" and "Dance With Me" performed far below expectations, and by 2002, Sisqó was back with Dru Hill, who released their third LP in late 2002. The LP underperformed, and the group was eventually released from their record contract.

It is also confirmed that he is soon to be releasing a new album called Last Dragon. The first single is said to be entitled "Who's Your Daddy". It's also heard to release in the summer of 2006

Other songs Sisqo has realeased over the past year consist of, In da Club, So Seductive, One Love, Really Real and One Finga In the Air. Some of which may or may not appear on his new album.

Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sisqo

Now while I am not a HUGE Sisqo fan by any means, I do like a few of his songs and a couple of Dru Hill's songs. I hope this helps clear up what he is doing for those who were curious.

I do know that when Backstreet Boy's AJ had to be shipped off to rehab, their management suggested Sisqo replace him on the tour. To their credit, the Boys said fuck no, knowing it would come across as a money grab and make it seem as if the members were easily replacable. They also promptly had Sisqo booted off the tour from his place as opening act. Five years after the fact the Boys are still around, and Sisqo hasn't really been heard of since.

although, he is coming out with another album. in the past years, his career was cut short by his remarks on 106 & Park when he said that he sings better than anyone(directing it to Usher) As a personal friend of mind, he wish that he didn't say that... eek

As far as I remeber he didn't get shot but he did get arrested for firing a handgun near his house a few yrs. back.

On his own Sisqo had some nice slow cuts & Dru Hill's 1st 2 cd's we're nice.

Du Hill came to a music fest. in my hometown with all the original members + the new guy back in 2004.

He got arrested on a weapons charge. He was accused of shooting at someone from the balcony of his home.

This happened not to long after I realized he and I were sitting a few seats from each other at "X-Men 2." I was going to cut out after him, near the end, to ask him about music production. omg

Glad I didn't, now. He might've gone postal.

Sisqo was going out with Samantha Mumba at one point. She was about three feet taller than him. In fact, I do believe she had a kid with him.
