PERFORMERS
STING
Sting has won 16 Grammy Awards, including awards for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance. Originally a member of the British rock trio "The Police," Sting ventured into a solo career in 1985 with the release of "Dream Of The Blue Turtles," which sold over two millions copies. Sting's 1987 album "…Nothing Like The Sun" went double platinum, with three top 20 hits including the popular single, "We'll Be Together." His top five hit "All This Time," came from the 1991 album "The Soul Cages," written after the death of his father. In 1993, Sting reached triple-platinum status with "Ten Summoner's Tales," an album which included such hits as "If I Ever Lose My Faith In You," "Fields Of Gold," and "Nothing 'Bout Me." He returned with the albums "Mercury Falling" in 1996 and "Brand New Day" in 1999, for which he won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Album. Sting recently released his tenth solo album, "Sacred Love," on A&M records.
MARY J. BLIGE
Considered "the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul" and probably the greatest soul singer of her generation, Mary J. Blige entered the music scene with her 1992 double platinum debut, "What's the 411?," which included the hit singles "Real Love" and "Reminisce" and was produced by Sean "P. Diddy" Combs, as was her follow up, 1994's "My Life." Over the course of her career, she has released five platinum-plus albums including 1997's "Share My World" and 1999's "Mary." In 2001, she released the triple platinum "No More Drama," which included the Dr. Dre-produced hit song "Family Affair," the number one single for four straight weeks. Blige has won two Grammy awards for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group in 1996 for "I'll Be There For You"/"You're All I Need," with Method Man, and Best Female R&B Vocal Performance in 2003 for "He Think I Don't Know." Her latest CD, "Love & Life," was recently released and entered the Billboard album chart at number one.
