Founded and managed by music producer Chris Stokes, they were active from 2001 until 2004 and released two albums, 2001's B2K and 2002's Pandemonium!. They also featured in the film You Got Served as a breakdancing crew, and several songs by the group were featured on the film's soundtrack album. In 2008 there were talks of a reunion, and a new song titled 'Body Up' leaked onto the internet featuring all the members except Omarion, but these rumours have never been confirmed.

Even though they were newcomers to the industry, their first LP, 2002's B2K, became an instant hit. Their second (and final) regular studio album, Pandemonium!, was released in December of the same year, and garned the US #1 hit single "Bump, Bump, Bump" and "Girlfriend". The group was featured regularly on the covers of teen magazines such as Right On! and Word Up, and released a Christmas album in-between their regular two albums entitled Santa Hooked Me Up.

In addition to that, they were featured on the soundtrack album for MGM's film Barbershop and headlined The Scream Tour, their third, in 2003. Marques Houston, Jhene, Mario and Nick Cannon were also performers on The Scream Tour.

Those who were against the california-based boy band often claimed that their music is too mainstream, thus resulting in the boy band garnering nicknames such as, "B2Gay" and "B2Fugly."

In January 2004, Chris Stokes announced that the group had broken up. Three of the members claimed financial mishandling by Stokes' management company, TUG (The Ultimate Group); the fourth member, Omarion, claimed the allegations were untrue.

In the midst of the breakup, Screen Gems's You Got Served, a film starring the members of the group and Omarion's half-brother Marques Houston as breakdancers, went into general release on January 30, 2004, and hitting number one at the box office, earned more money than any other film that opened during a Super Bowl weekend. A number of the group's songs were featured on the film's soundtrack album.

You Can Get It
B2K Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

She walked through the doors of the club
Chillin' with her man
Lookin' sexy as hell
With the jeans and the matchin' bag
The way she licked her lips
Made me want to go ask her name
The way she moved them hips
Kept starin' at me

Let me know she wanted to play

[Chorus]
Shorty is checkin' for me
Shorty got her eyes up on me
We can get down with the quickness
Just say the word and I'm wit it (fa' sho')
Mommy want to roll with flava
Take her from her man, and save her
Girl, just say the word and I'm wit' it
(You know) and you definitely can get it

She saw me outside 'bout to leave
Mommy said, "What up?"
Me and my crew sittin' low in the humma truck
She steps to the driver side and sayin' let's bounce
So, I'm good; let's do this
Peace, y'all, I'm out

Boy, don't play games
What you want?
Let's be clear: I'm right here in your face
My man just left, so what's next?
Tell me what you want from me
Tell me what you want from me

[Chorus x 2]

Yeah, mommy was a little hottie and then
Plus she gotta body
Can't nobody knock me
We can down with the quickness
Just say the word and I'm wit' it
(Fa' sho') I can tell that
She was lookin' lookin'
Even if she's tooken
Don't think that I wouldn't
Girl, just say the word and I'm wit' it
(You know) and you definitely can get it

Y'all close to me, but no cigar
It's your favorite teen idol, the superstar
Not you little homey
It's Lil' Fizz, y'all
A teen heart throb
And the greatest of them all
Girl, all you gotta do is call
And I'm wit' it
'Cause the way that booty look
You sho' can get it
So leave your man
And let's make some plans
Roll with the boy that is hot
But cool as a fan

[Chorus]

Overall Meaning

In the song "You Can Get It" by B2K, the singer describes his encounter with an attractive woman at a club who initially arrived with her boyfriend. Despite her relationship status, the singer observed how she licked her lips and moved her hips, which indicated an interest in him. The woman ended up leaving the club with the singer and his crew, and the singer implies that he would be interested in the woman regardless of her relationship status. However, the woman asks the singer what his intentions are and what he wants from her.

The lyrics seem to paint a scene of club culture where people express interest in others, and relationships may not hold the same level of value. The singer has taken the initiative to leave his mark on the woman and asserts his role as an admirer who can provide an escape from her current relationship. The woman responds by demanding a clear understanding of his intentions, which adds a level of complexity to the interaction.
