Biography

In 1966, The Stylistics formed in Philadelphia, PA from two groups, The Percussions & The Monarchs. When members from each group were drafted, the remaining members joined forces to become The Stylistics. The original group lineup was Russell Thompkins Jr., Herb Murrell, Airrion Love, James Smith, and James Dunn. Bill Perry recorded their first song, "You're a Big Girl Now" at Virtue Recording Studio in Philadelphia, written by Robert "Doc" Douglas & Marty Bryant. The song hit #1 in Philadelphia, and other cities soon followed. Bill Perry then contacted Avco Records and made a record deal. Hit producer Thom Bell produced their first album, The Stylistics, featuring hit songs "Stop, Look, Listen To Your Heart", "You Are Everything" and "Betcha By Golly Wow". The album's success was phenomenal, and continued with the release of their second album, Round Two.

Herbert Murrell and Airrion Love are the two original members still singing with The Stylistics. Friends since jr. high, Airrion Love & Herb Murrell have kept the music alive, and they're still touring the world. Former lead singer, Russell Thompkins Jr, left the group in 2000. In 2011, Jason Sharp, former lead singer of Heatwave, joined The Stylistics. In 2018, Barrington “Bo” Henderson, formerly of The Dramatics, Lakeside, and The Temptations, joined The Stylistics as their new lead singer. The Stylistics current lineup consists of singers Airrion Love, Herb Murrell, Jason Sharp, and Barrington "Bo" Henderson.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low

How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
