A part of me may have screamed a little when I heard about Boyz II Men because they have been a longtime favorite R&B group of mine. Actually had the pleasure of seeing them a few years back when they were in Moorhead, Minnesota at their outdoor venue Bluestem Amphitheatre. With hits like "Motownphilly", "End of the Road", "One Sweet Day" that they did with Mariah Carey, and "I'll Make Love to You", among many many more, one will be able to sing from start to finish!

Then you have Chaka Khan, who has been a music icon for years for not just singing, but for writing music, acting and so much more as well. The combination sounds like one you won't want to miss!
