PR Trends Remixed

It’s a Party and Wingo is the party-starter. Still a member of the Grammy winning quartet Jagged Edge, Wingo is stepping out with his own solo project. His first single “Bust It Down” featuring Gucci Mane is already creating a buzz in the clubs and on radio. This new project displays Wingo’s personal style outside of the group.

J.E. Heartbreak
Following up their debut album, Jagged Edge released J.E. Heartbreak in 2000. The album was the group’s breakthrough album with several popular singles. The album went double platinum and had the hit single “Let’s Get Married” which topped the R&B charts and reached #11 on the Hot 100. The album’s second single, “He Can’t Love You” had similar success, reaching #3 on the R&B charts and #15 on the Hot 100. It also featured the track “Promise” which, albeit a late single coming out in 2001, reached #1 on the R&B charts and #9 on the Hot 100. The album’s lead single, “Keys To The Range”, however was the sole flop from the album.

Jagged Little Thrill and Hard
The group’s third release, Jagged Little Thrill, was released in 2001 and went platinum. Its success was in large part, due to the up-tempo “Where The Party At”, which reached #1 on the R&B charts and #3 on the Hot 100, the group’s highest charting single.

Jagged Edge’s fourth album, Hard, was released in 2003 and went gold. The album’s single “Walked Outta Heaven” performed well on the charts, reaching #6 on the Hot 100 and #2 on the R&B charts.

Jagged Edge and Baby Makin’ Project
Jagged Edge’s fifth album, Jagged Edge, was released on May 9, 2006 by Columbia/Sony Music Urban and it went gold. It featured the hit urban single “Good Luck Charm”. Also released on November 21st, 2006 was the The Hits collection featuring Jagged Edge’s biggest hits plus a few album tracks. The album shared the single “Stunnas” that’s also on the Jagged Edge album as a bonus track.

After resigning with So So Def through Island Def Jam, the group were also granted their own record label called 581 Music which was credited on their album, “Baby Makin’ Project.” The single “Put a Little Umph In it” featuring Ashanti reached #49 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs Chart.

Wingo is currently touring with Jagged Edge (now signed to Slip N Slide) and simultaneously working on the groups next album and his solo project.
