Biography

Take 6, a renowned a cappella group, emerged from a blend of gospel, doo wop, and jazz influences, setting the stage for '90s Black male pop groups like Boyz II Men. Originally formed at Alabama's Oakwood College in the '80s, the group achieved critical acclaim and commercial success with their Grammy-winning debut album in 1988. Transitioning to Reprise Records in the '90s, Take 6 continued to push musical boundaries with a diverse discography that earned them multiple Grammy and Dove awards.

Following their early success, Take 6 released several albums through the 2000s, experimenting with instrumental backing and blending genres while maintaining their distinctive sound.

With standout collaborations with artists like George Benson and Stevie Wonder, Take 6 solidified their legacy as pioneers in the a cappella genre.
