Monsta Jamz CD

The groups passion and love of the music and their strong desire to keep their fans ultimately satisfied, has shown up in Platinum and Gold as they've poured out streams of top 10 and No. 1 hits. It began in 1983 with dance-floor smashes like "Freak-a-Zoid", "No Parking on the Dance Floor", "Wet My Whistle" and the lovers ballad of the mid-80's, "Slow Jam", that to date no one can get enough of. The Planetary Invasion LP of 1985 took them to No. 1 with "Operator" and the sizzling "Curious". In 1986 MIDNIGHT STAR struck gold with the chart buster "Midas Touch" and the title cut from the Headlines LP. The year of 1988 rowed them to the top once again with the No. 1 "Don't Rock the Boat" (which featured rapper Ecstasy of Whodini) and the top 10 "Snake in the Grass" from their self-titled CD. MIDNIGHT STAR broke into the 90's with the smash "Do It (One More Time)" from their Work it Out CD which also featured the sultry ballad "Red Roses". After extensive international touring, some of the members decided to pursue other various projects. "Deep down inside, everyone had the intentions of getting back together again," says vocalist/guitarist Melvin "McArthur" Gentry. "I've been behind the scenes a little bit, doing production projects on Toni Braxton, Shanice Wilson and others." Vocalist and keyboard player Boaz Watson has worked as McArthur's production partner. He has also co-written songs with renowned songwriter/producer Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, including hits on Toni Braxton and After Seven.
