Mindless Behavior’s Debut Album Hits Stores Tuesday w/ Limited Edition Covers

#1 Girl, the debut album from Mindless Behavior, the #1 new teen group conquering the pop universe, will be released on Tuesday, September 20th. After stirring up a frenzy with R&B grooves and pop hooks on a pair of hit singles and tours with Janet Jackson and Justin Bieber, the Mindless Behavior boys–Prodigy, Roc Royal, Ray Ray and Princeton–follow in the tradition of great young male singing groups with #1 Girl (Streamline/Conjunction/Interscope Records).

As a special treat for fans, Mindless Behavior will release 4 limited edition covers of #1 Girl, each featuring a different member of the group. While the cover on a majority of the albums will feature all four members, albums with those four limited edition covers will be available only during the first pressing.

Celebrating the album release, Mindless Behavior will star on the Scream Tour: The Next Generation (screamtour.com) from September 30 to November 20. Among the stops will be New York City, Los Angeles, Baltimore, St. Louis, Washington (DC), Chicago, Detroit, Houston, Dallas, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Oakland, Atlanta and New Orleans. The tour follows Mindless Behavior’s summer spent on BET’s Closer To My Dreams Tour with other young teen sensations.

Produced and largely written by Walter Millsap (Beyoncé, Timbaland, Alicia Keys, Jennifer Lopez) and Candice “Goldie” Nelson (Mary J. Blige, Britney Spears, Ciara)–other writer-producers are Boi-1da and JukeBox–#1 Girl combines infectious beats and soulful harmonies to turn the heads and melt the hearts of young girls everywhere. Mindless Behavior already has notched the #1 artist page on MTV.com and ranks as the #2 Universal Music Group artist in online presence, behind only Lady Gaga.

#1 Girl’s first single, “My Girl,” racked up 14 million views on YouTube and a Viewer’s Choice BET Award nomination. The follow-up, “Mrs. Right” featuring Diggy Simmons, hit #1 on BET’s “106 and Park” countdown show three weeks in a row and was the #1 most added song at Urban Radio, with its video the #1 most viewed video on Music Choice On Demand for five weeks straight. The newest single is “Girls Talkin Bout.”

Streamline Records head Vincent Herbert, who discovered Lady Gaga, developed the original Mindless Behavior concept with Millsap. At a 2008 audition hosted by Conjunction Productions–a teaming of Millsap, Nelson, Keisha Gamble and choreographer David Scott (the latter three helped create B2K)–Prodigy, Roc Royal, Ray Ray and Princeton shined the brightest. Over the next three years, they honed a singular style that embraces not only vocal skills but incredible dance moves and a unique fashion sense.

Now, Mindless Behavior brings energy, excitement and a positive message of freedom and fun to every #1 Girl.
