“There’s been so much conversation about the state of R&B and the next generation of R&B artists,” nine-time Emmy award winner Mary J. Blige told Power 99.1 FM. “This generation has been giving us great R&B, and that feeling, that soul, and that sound remains in our DNA. When we heard WanMor sing, we knew we could stop looking. They are IT! Supporting and cultivating true R&B talent is why I started Beautiful Life Productions, and I couldn’t be more proud to do this with these young men.”
CEO of 300 Entertainment, Kevin Liles, who’s assisting in production for WanMor’s upcoming EP, expressed, “WanMor is what we have been missing in music. There’s no one out like them; it all comes down to their voices, songs, and fans. WanMor is bringing the superstar R&B group back. R&B is not dead. At 300, we are excited to partner again with Mary J Blige and her Beautiful Life team.”
