112 is a Grammy-winning R&B quartet from Atlanta, Georgia, consisting of Marvin “Slim” Scandrick, Quinnes “Q” Parker, Daron Jones, and Michael Keith. They released their self-titled debut album on Bad Boy Entertainment in 1996, which featured the hits “Cupid” and “Only You” with The Notorious B.I.G. and the remix also featuring Ma$e. In 1997, they joined Puff Daddy and Faith Evans on “I’ll Be Missing You,” the tribute to The Notorious B.I.G. for which they won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group. The single also topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart for 11 weeks.

They would release two more albums on Bad Boy—Room 112 (1998) featuring the hit single “Anywhere” and Part III (2001) featuring the hits “It’s Over Now,” “Peaches & Cream,” and “Dance With Me.” They joined Def Jam’s R&B imprint Def Soul for their fourth album Hot & Wet (2003)—a joint venture with Bad Boy—and Pleasure & Pain (2005). The group split to release solo projects before coming back to release Q, Mike, Slim, Daron in 2017.
