The acknowledged "king of New Jack Swing", producer/songwriter Teddy Riley's enviable list of platinum-laced credits include Guy, the Winans, Joe (the Riley-produced "Stutter" topped both the RB/pop charts in early 2001), Johnny Kemp, Blackstreet, Keith Sweat, Michael Jackson, Mary J. Blige, Hi-Five, and Al B. Sure among many others.
Born in Harlem, Riley grew up in the St. Nicholas projects. He began playing drums at three years old. At five, Riley picked up the guitar and the trumpet. When he turned eight, he began playing piano for the Little Flower Baptist Church. Later, he began playing in bands around New York. After meeting Kool and the Gang member Royal Bayyan, Riley was introduced to the arts of record production and songwriting. Hooking up with Gene Griffin in the mid '80s, Riley's many talents resulted in platinum hits for Guy -- the singing trio that included Riley and brothers Aaron Hall and Damion Hall. One of [$Riley's early production was Deja's 1988 Virgin LP, We Belong Together.
In the early 90s, Guy disbanded and Riley formed Blackstreet with Chauncey Hannibal, Dave Hollister, and Levi Little. The self-titled debut album went platinum. Their second album, Another Level, followed suite and spawned the million-seller "No Diggity." Tiring of the rigors of big city life, Riley moved to Virginia, opening his state-of-the art Future Recording Studios in the mid-'90s. ~

While rhythm and blues has never been more popular or commercially viable, it has also reached a creative impasse. Beats that were once innovative now seem formulaic as hit after hit reaches the airwaves but the record buying public is left still wanting. Feenin, for music that does more than taste great. It is into this arena that Blackstreet releases their third CD, Finally. More than a follow-up to ‘96’s phenomenally successful Another Level (which would go on to sell 6 million copies and spawn the chart busting and Grammy winning #1 smash "No Diggity") Finally is, as the title might evoke, a definitive statement. A declaration for the end of the century. Or to put it more succinctly and less poetically, the bomb. Featuring Blackstreet’s finely honed harmonies and solo turns, and the incomparable, but thankfully never predictable production and song writing (note that word) skills of Teddy Riley, Finally sets the template for what R&B must sound like as we enter the year 2000. Although Blackstreet has enjoyed continuous acclaim since its platinum debut in 1994, the pressure was on when it came down to recording Finally "It wall all internal pressure" Teddy explains. "Because we really wanted this album to be it. We went back home" Teddy points to his heart, "here", he gestures out into the room, "and then went into tomorrow. The sound and the styles of music on this CD are so broad. It sounds like such a cliché to say, there’s something for everyone, but there’s so much here that everyone who hears this album is going to be able to say. That’s the jam. That’s the song. That’s the one." Offers co-founding member Chauncey, "I kept thinking this time, we need to come out of the box with another "No Diggity". But the more we wrote and thought about it, the more I realized. No. Let’s be different, again, like we were with "No Diggity." Let’s not go by those record industry rules. Let’s make some new ones up." One listen to Finally and it’s clear that the group has taken it to the next level. From the pyrotechnic grooves of "Can You Feel It", which uses snippets of the Jackson’s song of the same name, to the lowdown grimy bass beats of "Don’t Stop", the sweeping ballad "In a Rush" (which boasts harmonica from Stevie Wonder) or the inspirational message of the title track (featuring the renowned gospel star Hezekiah Walker) Finally is about R&B that is willing to work without a net, yet which is confident and schooled enough to give the people what they want and deserve. Like everything Teddy Riley has touched in his 15 years making music, and just a collection of dope ass beats. It is that bag of chips and the possibilities and the promise of R&B, delivered by four of its soulful practitioners. Three of those practitioners are no doubt (no diggity) familiar to Blackstreet fans. The latest component of Blacksteet is Terrell Philips. A native of North Carolina and a seasoned studio and touring vet, Terrell’s powerful singing style is showcased on the anguished track "Misery". "Finding someone like Terrell is a blessing," says Teddy. Along with Blackstreet’s studio skills, the group has emerged as a potent live act, notably in an age when track dates seem to be enough to get the job done. In 1996, Blackstreet was featured on the sold out New Edition reunion tour, often stealing the show form the headliners. Armed with time tested R&B polish and state of the art hip hop swagger, Blackstreet’s concerts were embraced by fans throughout the US and Europe. In fact the group was invited to perform on MTV Un-Plugged in the summer of 1997 and the episode proved to be the highest rated one of the summer season. In between sessions for Finally (held, as always at Teddy’s Future Recording Studio in Virginia Beach, VA) Blackstreet contributed the first single form the hot soundtrack for the Rugrats full length movie. "Take Me There", which also features Mya, Mase and Blinky Blink is a joyous slice of pop, flavored by Blackstreet’s gut bucket vocalist. "We loved doing that song," Eric smiles. "We’re thrilled to be Nickelodeon’s favorite R&B group." The choice of cool kids and their equally fly moms, dads, and everyone in between, Blackstreet have rightfully taken their place in the R&B hierarchy. Classy, conscious, low down and nasty, beat down and bluesey. Soulful and sassy, rocked out and rumpshaking. Be it ghetto fabulous or ghetto savvy, on Finally Blackstreet take it…there. "This is the CD we’ve always wanted to make" offers Teddy. One listen and you’ll know why. -Bio Courtesy of Interscope Records

Edward Theodore Riley, 8 October 1967, Harlem, New York, USA. Widely regarded as not only the originator, but the motivating force behind "new jack swing", Riley remains arguably the most successful and revered producer in modern soul music.


Riley's origins were in the R&B group Kids At Work, and his stepfather was Gene Griffin, who released one of the earliest rap tracks with Trickeration's "Rap, Bounce, Rollerskate". "New jack swing", or swingbeat as it is also called, represented a fusion of hip-hop beats and soul vocals which together created a more upfront-style of R&B. Riley revolutionised the R&B charts in the late 80s through his work with pioneering swingbeat artists such as Keith Sweat, Bobby Brown and his own trio, Guy, although the genre soon attracted ridicule as more and more major-label clones clogged up the charts. Riley's remixing and production credits have also included work with Jodeci, Mary J. Blige, DJ Jazzy Jeff And The Fresh Prince, Wreckx-N-Effect, James Ingram and Michael Jackson, and he has completed soundtrack work on prominent movies such as New Jack City and Do The Right Thing. He returned to the band format in 1994 with the highly successful BLACKstreet, which also boasted Chauncey "Black" Hannibal, Levi Little (bass/guitar/keyboards) and Dave Hollister. The band hit a commercial and creative high point in 1996 with the Grammy-award winning single, "No Diggity".
