Dru Hill is back.

Sisqó, Nokio, Jazz, and newest member Tao rock leather and skulls on the cover of their first album in almost eight years, InDRUpendence Day. The quartet’s new disc arrives July 27, featuring the singles “Love M.D.” and “Back to the Future.”

Catch their comeback on the reality show “Platinum House,” premiering June 28 on Centric.

You also forgot to mention that it seems like Nokio and Sisqo have lost their damn minds. WTF is up with their hair and outfits? I'm sure that they're not making any money right now either. That's enough to drive any sane person away.

So what is Woody up to these days?

Woody went back to his roots in doing gospel music. The main reason why he left Dru Hill the first time was because of the group's image (especially the dragon symbol) was in direct conflict with Woody's religious & spiritual convictions.

Why does every 90's RB burn-out that has done nothing musically in almost a decade feel the need to sell whatever little cred they have for bullshit reality shows, lets see we have Brandy, Dru Hill, Toni B, etc....

I heard that Sisqo didn't do very well in Celebrity Big Brother UK neither.

I caught one of the episodes of the reality show and wasn't impressed at all (though I didn't think I would in the first place). All that I learned from the episode is that Jazz has a weight problem and acts like a little boy when he doesn't get his way, the new guy Tao is kind of cute, Nokio is a bitch, and Sisqo still got the pipes. NEXT!!!!!

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

You're right about this cat. I saw how he acted towards a female fan several

years ago on B.E.T. He was about to get into a bitchfest with her because

she called him out for acting stuck up or for a better term like a bitch. lol

disbelief He acts like little ass spoiled boy instead of a man and isn't he in his 30's now? The episode I saw was when they were with their voice coach and she wanted them each to sing a song that described them or was meaningful to them. Jazz sung an opera song, which he did extremely well with, Tao was great, and of course Sisqo blew them all out the water and the whole time they were doing their solo's, Nokio was on the couch showing his cell phone to the camera which showed a message "This is Bullshit". So childish. Then when it was Nokio's time to sing, he half way sung the song, no effort at all. When the voice coach recognized how lazy he was being and called him out on it, he said that he just didn't feel like singing at that time, and also he never leads any songs anyway so he didn't see why this particular exercise was important. I was like wow, you really just want to act an ass on television on purpose. Yet you most likely will expect to be respected and recognized when you go out on the street? Please.

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

More reality bullshit. Getting rid of cable was the smartest move I ever made.

To be honest, I'd be more interested in seeing Sisqo really re-vamp his solo career the way it should had been in the first place. He could make a come back alone all on his own if he wanted to if he would let go of making shitty music with Dru Hill. I liked them when they first came out but then they ended up sounding like everybody else. And this little reunion thing they got going on isn't going to last either...I have a strong, gut feeling about that.

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

I always thought Dru Hill's first album, even though it went platinum, was somewhat underrated, not taken seriously enough as a great R&B album. I loved that album. Really solid and consistent. The last half is brilliant IMO - Never Make A Promise, So Special, In My Bed, Love's Train, Share My World, 5 Steps.

And who can forget "Were Not Making Love No More" from the Soul Food soundtrack.

I didn't like them as much in later albums, but always found them to be great singers. Love him or hate him, Sisqo is a great vocalist.
