112

112 is an American R&B group from Atlanta, Georgia. Discovered by record production duo Tim & Bob, the group signed with Sean Combs's Bad Boy Records, an imprint of Arista Records to release their eponymous debut studio album (1996). The following year, they guest performed alongside labelmate Faith Evans on Sean Combs’ 1997 single "I'll Be Missing You," which won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group and became the first hip hop song to debut atop the Billboard Hot 100. Their second and third albums, Room 112 (1998) and Part III (2001), followed thereafter; the latter peaked at number two on the Billboard 200. The group's fourth album, Hot & Wet (2003), served as their final release with Bad Boy until signing with Def Soul to release their fifth album Pleasure & Pain (2005), which saw continued commercial success. The albums spawned the Billboard Hot 100-top 20 singles "Only You", "Cupid," "Anywhere", "Love Me", "It's Over Now," and the Grammy-nominated "Peaches & Cream."
