Silk is an American R&B group that first gained fame in the early 1990s with their smooth harmonies and seductive ballads. The group's breakout hit "Freak Me," released in 1992 on their debut album "Lose Control," reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and solidified their place in the pantheon of R&B vocal groups. Comprised of members Tim Cameron, Jimmy Gates, Gary "Big G" Glenn, Jonathen "John John" Rasboro, and Gary "Lil G" Jenkins, Silk distinguished themselves with their polished vocal performances and romantic lyricism.

Over the years, Silk continued to charm audiences with albums like "Love Session" and "Tonight," which showcased their consistency in producing quality R&B music. They are known not just for their sensual lead singles but also for their ability to craft meaningful albums that resonate with fans of traditional R&B. Despite the changing tides in music trends, Silk has managed to stay relevant by leaning into nostalgia with releases like "Freak Me (Re-Recorded - Sped Up)" and diversifying their sound with remixes ranging from Antoni Maiovvi's take to a Dubstep Remix, ensuring that their classic hits reach new audiences while still satisfying long-time fans. The group's longevity and ability to adapt are testaments to their talent and commitment to their craft.
