About B2k

B2K was the late-90s/early-2000s R&B boy band that actually had staying power beyond the usual manufactured run. Formed in 1998, the group—Omarion, Fizz, J-Boog, and Raz-B—hit their stride with their second album, which spawned "Bump, Bump, Bump," a track that became unavoidable for like three years straight. That song alone defined a specific moment in pop radio, but they weren't just a one-hit situation. They made solid R&B records with actual songs underneath the hits, toured relentlessly, and built a fanbase that actually stayed invested. Their catalog holds up better than you'd expect from a boy band product, partly because they could sing and partly because they caught a wave where throwback-leaning R&B actually dominated mainstream radio. They've reunited periodically since their initial breakup in 2004, which tells you something about how they're remembered.

Known for Bump, Bump, Bump, Girlfriend, Why I Love You, Uh Huh, Cradle 2 The Grave

B2k + Washington DC

B2K has a history in DC that goes back to their peak era. Their last time through town was March 2019 at EagleBank Arena, where they ran through their catalog including "Girlfriend." That's been a few years now, which probably means plenty of people are ready to see them again.

Live Music in Washington DC

Washington has always had a complicated relationship with mainstream pop and R&B, mostly because the city's been too busy nurturing its own thing—go-go, indie rock, whatever else bubbles up from the local scene. When major acts like B2K come through, it's interesting to see how they slot into a city that's never really needed to depend on outside pop for validation.

Washington DC road trip to see B2k?

Stay in Georgetown or Capitol Hill, both walkable neighborhoods with excellent restaurants and bars. Book a table at Kinfolk in Capitol Hill for refined New American cooking, or head to Pineapple and Pearls for something more elaborate if you want to splurge. During the day, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden offers world-class contemporary art without the crowds of the main Smithsonians. Walk the C&O Canal towpath if the weather cooperates. Hit up one of the city's serious record shops like Smash! Records before the show.
