All-4-One is a Grammy Award-winning American male R&B and pop group best known for their hit singles "I Swear" and "I Can Love You Like That". The group comprises Jamie Jones, Delious Kennedy, Alfred Nevarez, and Tony Borowiak, all from the Antelope Valley and Mojave, California areas. The group has sold 22 million records worldwide.
History
All-4-One's hit "I Swear" won a Grammy Award in 1995 for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal and enjoyed an eleven-week run at Number One on the Billboard Hot 100, as well as a six-week run at Number One on the Australian Singles Chart and a seven-week run at No. 2 on the UK Singles Chart. Other RIAA Gold-certified hits by the group include remakes of "So Much in Love", "I Can Love You Like That", and "Someday" from the soundtrack to Disney's 1996 animated film The Hunchback of Notre Dame. A rift between their independent label, Blitzz Records, and their major label, Atlantic Records, led to the group leaving Atlantic Records as well as Blitzz Records after the release of the album On and On in 1999. The shift in labels left the group in limbo for a few years as they contemplated their next move. In 2001, the follow-up album, A41, was released on AMC Records, yielding "Beautiful as U", a top 20 hit on the Radio & Records Adult Contemporary chart. The group's 2004 album, Split Personality, was given an Asia-only release, and subsequently gave them Asian hits with "Someone Who Lives in Your Heart" and "I Just Wanna Be Your Everything". For much of the 2000s All-4-One spent their time touring Asia, in cities such as Tokyo, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Seoul, Bangkok, Shanghai and Sydney. In 2009, All-4-One released No Regrets on the Peak Records/Concord Music Group label. The album was largely created in-house, with the group doing the writing for the album, and Jamie Jones production company, The Heavyweights, doing a lot of the production work. The CD produced the Urban Adult Contemporary hit "My Child". In June 2015, Billboard.com premiered the first single, "Baby Love", from All-4-One's 20th anniversary album, Twenty+. In February 2016, All-4-One joined the inaugural Tour with their peers Salt-N-Pepa featuring Spinderalla, Vanilla Ice, Coolio, Tone Loc, Color Me Badd, Rob Base, Kid N Play and Young MC.
