Last month, R&B solo artist Michael Keith came forward and dropped a bomb: he said that his former group 112 broke up because he “found out that a certain member of the group took my publishing check.” He added that he believed the culprit would soon come forward to defend himself.
Now, Quinnes “Q” Parker is doing just that. This week, Parker spoke to Atlanta radio station V103 and said that yes, he was accused, but no, it wasn’t actually true.
"It comes down to something very simple," he said, "as recently as last week we went to court about this very topic and I was exonerated…I may not agree with what Mike is saying, but I respect his right to speak his mind."
Parker went on to say that 112 never broke up. "If 112 is broken up, its news to me,” he said. “We have been doing shows over the last year; as recent as last weekend!"
The Atlanta-based group, formed by Sean “Diddy” Combs around 1996, was comprised of Q (real name Quinness Parker, Slim (real name Marvin Scandrick), Daron Jones, and Keith. Their biggest hit was “Cupid” off their 1996 self-titled debut album.
