So far you’ve watched Dru Hill work out, sing, argue, and regroup in order to pull their latest music project together.  But, tonight Keith Sweat has to step in to keep Dru Hill on track.

Last week Sisqo went overseas to do solo performances which left Jazz, Nokio, and Tao back at home to focus on themselves. More importantly Sisqo’s absence led to the groups inability to work as a unit and make musical progress—which of course stalls getting paid.  This week, Keith Sweat reacts to the groups concerns and goes overseas to meet with Sisqo to find out if his reasoning for performing solo  trip was about money or ego? 

A brand new episode premieres tonight at 8PM EST.

Did you miss Keith Sweat’s Platinum House on Monday night?  If you did you shouldn’t feel bad because tonight at 8PM EST you can catch an encore presentation of your favorite Centric show.

Expect a lot of individual growth, but not a lot of unity.  Sisqo travels overseas to perform, Jazz works on music alone, Nokio helps his rock band develop and find harmony, while Tao tries to keep the group on track. At the end of the day business is business and mouths must be fed. 

To get a more in depth look of what Dru Hill does to make their money tune in tonight to Keith Sweat’s Platinum House only on Centric.

The men of Dru Hill are crisscrossing the nation in promotion of their newly released album Indrupendence Day, but we managed to catch up with Jazz to get the rundown on his Keith Sweat’s Platinum House experience, what’s in his i-Pod, the “competition,” and his side hustle.  

JJ: The new album was just released this past tuesday, are you feeling nervous about the response?

Jazz: Im not nervous. I’m more so excited to hear the response to see if my predictions are correct.  We’ve covered enough angles on this album to please our fans.

JJ: With the current taste of music different from the 90’s, do you feel you all have any musical competition?

Jazz: I don’t really see anyone as competition because I feel that DruHill has it’s own space in the game….. We just have to get out there and grind again and maintain it .

JJ:  In your opinion, how has Keith Sweat impacted Dru Hill?

Jazz: Keith Sweat has always [given] us wisdom and created mentoring experiences for Dru Hill since our 1st album . Keith and I actually cut a sing together a few years ago entitled  “Girl Its On”.  For some odd reason it’s listed on You-Tube as Dru-Hill and Keith Sweat but it was recorded in 2003 when I was grinding solo, so it’s  really Jazz and Keith Sweat.

JJ: Speaking of “grinding solo” are you still doing any side projects?

Jazz: My fans don’t know how much I grind. If they haven’t been to my website www.DigiGrindUnlimited.com , or haven’t seen me perform on my own over the years, they don’t know that I have a “Win a Wedding Package from Jazz of Dru-Hill” campaign going on that includes me performing a song of mine entitled “I Dont Wanna Live Without You” at their wedding. [I also have] independent albums of my own that I’ve been selling at my shows over the years.

JJ: Wow. That’s great. So who to you is the Greatest R&B group of all time?

Jazz: I Have several favorite groups, I really can’t pick just one. My favorites are: Earth Wind & Fire, Jackson 5, Temptations, O’Jays, Whispers, Kool & TheGang, Gap Band , Boys 2 Men, Jodeci, The Stylistics, The Delphonics, Aerosmith and Dru-Hill

During last night’s LIVESTREAM, Keith Sweat’s Platinum House Occupants and R&B group Dru Hill opened up and let Centric in on some little known facts about the group and their evolution.  From dance moves to dysfunction. Check out what we learned about the Baltimore quartet…and trust us, there are some things many of you super fans probably might not know.

1.  Those trademark “jumps” that Dru Hill does (most memorably in the “Tell Me” video) were inspired by church.  Inspired by the gospel feel of the track, the group was reminded a church deacon’s aisle step. They took that walk, developed it into a jump, and the Dru Hill “jump” was born.

2.  The “In My Bed (remix)” music video was shot the day after the Notorious B.I.G. was gunned down in Los Angeles. 

3.  Dru Hill rose from the bottom all the way to the top without a co-sign from any huge artists or producers on their first album (i.e. Diddy or Jermaine Dupri).

4.  Nokio was Trey Songz’s A&R before getting back into the studio for this latest Dru Hill project.

5.  If Nokio wasn’t in music, he would have attended John’s Hopkins University for medicine.

6.  Sisqo studied commercial art in high school and was recruited by Disney to work for them upon graduating high school, but he of course chose to sing with Dru Hill.

7.  Sisqo’s daughter was the little girl at the beginning of his “Thong Song” video in 1999.

8.  Dru Hill is working on releasing a video game, complete with the group’s music as the soundtrack.

9.  Nokio said that there will always be a Dru Hill even if there are NO original members left.

10. The group doesn’t belive in canceling a show for illness. Sisqo has performed with a sprained ankle and Nokio has performed on crutches

It’s the halfway mark of this season of Keith Sweat’s Platinum House, so it’s about time that the men of Dru Hill speak out and let everybody know what’s been going on and what viewers can expect to see the rest of this season.  If you want to hear what Sisqo, Nokio, Jazz, and Tao have to say then tonight is your lucky night.

The drama on Keith Sweat’s Platinum House is burning up. In case you missed Monday night’s episode…

Keith Sweat reaches out to one former member of Dru Hill to see if the group’s issues are deeper than they may seem.  What he finds out is that money issues, bad contracts, and selfishness have all been factors in the destructive path that Dru Hill has been on.

During therapy Jazz, Tao, Sisqo, and Nokio clear the air about the roles that they think they play in the group and possible reasons for the tension that’s present 95 percent of the time that they’re around each other.  From the therapy session, they all blow off steam in the ring, but believe us, two members won’t last 12 rounds.

Tonight’s episode of Keith Sweat’s Platinum House saw a group boxing session turn serious between original members Sisqo and Nokio. Want to know if the two finally have stopped fighting? How do they handle problems now? and, what Nokio thinks of former member Woody?  We sure do. Nokio shares his thoughts on this fourth installment of THE DRAGON DIARIES:

Me and Sisqo are cool. The fighting sh*t got old, so now we’ve learned to talk out our differences. We don’t always agree, but we agree to disagree.

And About Woody…

I feel like Woody did what he had to do and I have nothing but the utmost respect for him. He’s very talented so no matter what he does it’s [going  to] work.

On tonight’s episode of Keith Sweat’s Platinum House the men of Dru Hill continue of the journey of rebuilding their personal and working relationships…but not without drama.
