    Happy birthday to Wanya Morris, born July 29, 1973, co-founder of the legendary R&B group Boyz II Men.

    As we sit here in the mid-2000s, it is sometimes difficult to remember just how big the vocal group Boyz II Men was. Nathan Morris, Wanya Morris, Shawn Stockman and Michael McCary undoubtedly constituted the biggest soul group of the 90s, and blew open the doors for a generation of doo-wop influenced Soul groups, few of which ever remotely approached the group harmonies or strong material that Boyz II Men boasted in their prime.
