Boyz II Men Sign With Warner Records Nashville for a Country Album in 2027

Boyz II Men have signed with Warner Records Nashville, and the R&B vocal group plans to release a country album next year. The news was reported on 26 October 2026 by Billboard.

The album is scheduled for 2027, according to Rolling Stone. It will be the group's first country album. Warner Records Nashville is the Nashville-based label within Warner Music Group, one of the three major record companies that dominate the global market. Cris Lacy is its chair and president.

The group has a long run behind it. Boyz II Men debuted in 1991 with the album Cooleyhighharmony, and went on to become one of the best-selling vocal groups of the 1990s. Their move to country is a change of genre, not a break with their past, but the new record will be their first in that style.

Boyz II Men discussed the signing in an exclusive interview with The Tennessean, the Nashville newspaper, as USA Today reported. The group has also worked with Lady A, the country trio, on a song called "I Love The One." That song is part of an upcoming musical project inspired by The Chosen, the multi-season television drama about the life of Jesus.

For readers who follow the business side, a label signing like this one means the company will fund the making and promotion of the album. In return, the label usually takes a share of what the album earns, and sometimes a cut of other income from the artist. The exact terms of this deal have not been made public.

What happens next is simple to state. The album is due in 2027, and no release date, title or track list has been announced. Its chart performance, such as how it does on the Billboard country albums chart, will only be known once it is out and the sales are counted.

Country radio, the touring circuit and the group's long-time fans will all be watching for the first details. For now, the headline is a new home for a group with more than three decades of music behind it, and a new genre to explore.
