DAY26

DAY26 is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Ginuwine, Yung Joc, New Edition, 21st Century and Wyclef Jean. Those roots explain a lot about how DAY26 arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as The-Dream, LeToya, Donell Jones, Omarion and Tyrese, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Danity Kane, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 26 connections around DAY26, reaching back through Ginuwine and forward to Danity Kane. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.

Background

Day26 is an American male R&B music group formed in August 2007 by Sean "Diddy" Combs in a handpicked selection at the end of MTV's Making the Band 4. The group consists of Robert Curry, Brian Angel, Willie Taylor, Qwanell Mosley and Michael McCluney. The moniker is a tribute to the day when Angel, McCluney, Mosely, Curry, and Taylor went from unknowns to stars. The group released their first album, Day26, on March 25, 2008, one week after their then labelmates and Making the Band 3 winners Danity Kane released Welcome to the Dollhouse. The album's first single, "Got Me Going", was released on the finale of Making the Band 4. The album went on to debut at number one on the billboard charts. Subsequent seasons of Making the Band 4 featured the group on tour and making their second album Forever in a Day which also topped the Billboard charts.
