Immature

Immature, also known as IMx, is an R&B group from Los Angeles, California. The group was formed in 1992 by Marques Houston (Batman), Jerome Jones (Romeo, also known as Young Rome), and Don Santos (Half-Pint). The trio decided to enter a talent show together at the school they were attending. After performing, they were discovered and signed to Virgin Records, and began recording their debut album.

Their debut album, On Our Worst Behavior, was released on September 22, 1992. The album produced three singles: “Tear It Up (On Our Worst Behavior” featuring Jermaine Dupri, “Da Munchies”, and “I Wanna Know U That Way”. Though the album and two of its singles failed to chart, “Tear It Up (On Our Worst Behavior)” managed to peak at #29 on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, largely due to its inclusion on the soundtrack to the animated film Bébé’s Kids.

In 1994, Half-Pint’s parents pulled him from the group because they wanted him to focus on his studies more instead of being in the group. Half-Pint was replaced by Kelton Reese (LDB, or Little Drummer Boy), who was already the drummer for the group. Now signed to MCA Records, their sophomore effort Playtyme Is Over was released on August 10, 1994. Unlike their previous effort, the album managed to peak at #26 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and #88 on the Billboard 200. The accompanying three singles for the album were: “Never Lie” (the album’s most successful single, peaking at #5 on both the Billboard Hot 100 and the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, “Constantly”, and “I Don’t Mind”.
