B2K
In 1998, dance choreographer Dave Scott and Interscope A&R executive Keshia Gamble created the R&B boy band B2K, which stood for "Boys of the New Millennium." The group consisted of Frédéric, who adopted the stage name Lil' Fizz; Jarell Houston, who became J-Boog; De'Mario Thornton, who took the name Raz-B; and Omari Grandberry, who joined the group on New Year's Eve in 1999 and adopted the stage name Omarion. Lil' Fizz was the rapper of the group, as well as its youngest member. B2K released its self-titled debut album in March of 2002. Supported by the singles "Uh Huh," "Gots ta Be," and "Why I Love You," the album entered the Billboard 200 at number two and debuted at number one on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
B2K released a Christmas album, "Santa Hooked Me Up," in October of 2002. The group released its third and final album, "Pandemonium!," in December; it reached number ten on the Billboard 200 and number one on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
