Signing to Island Records through Haqq Islam's University Records imprint, the group released two successful albums, Dru Hill and Enter the Dru, before separating for a period from late 1999 to 2002, during which time Sisqó and Woody released solo albums. While Woody's Soul Music LP was a moderate success in the gospel music industry, Sisqó's debut album, Unleash the Dragon, and its hit singles, "Thong Song" and "Incomplete", were major pop successes, and established Sisqó as a household name outside Dru Hill. Sisqó's second album, Return of Dragon, did not sell as well.
In 2002, by then part of the Def Soul record label, the group reunited and added fifth member Rufus "Scola" Waller to the lineup for their third album, Dru World Order, whose underperformance led to the group being dropped from Def Soul. In 2009, the group signed to Kedar Entertainment Group and released their fourth album, InDRUpendence Day, the following year, with new member Tao taking the place of the again departed Woody.

Dru Hill Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Since I held you in my arms
So I picked up pen and paper
And decided to write you a song
Things just ain't the same
Since you took your love away
All I have is dark and lonely days
Wish that I could find the words to say
To show you love is real
The words just can't express the way I feel
You're my angel
My sun up in the sky
We've been through hell and back together
Why you want to leave me now
Only you can ease the pain I feel
And wipe my tears away
Won't you fly back home and make me whole again
Baby not a day goes bye
That I don't want to cry
When I think of what we had
How you walked out of my life
All I had was yours to take
Till my heart you chose to break
Still wish that I could make love to you
Just one more time for old times sake
If only I could find the words to say
To show you love is real
The words just can't express the way I feel
You're my angel
My sun up in the sky
We've been through hell and back together
Why you want to leave me now
Only you can ease the pain I feel
And wipe my tears away
Won't you fly back home and make me feel whole again
Come back home
Come back home
'Cause without you here beside me
My house is not a home
Only you can ease the pain I feel
And wipe my tears away
Won't you fly back home and make me whole again
You're my angel
My sun up in the sky
We've been through hell and back together
Why you want to leave me now
Only you can ease the pain I feel
And wipe my tears away
Won't you fly back home and make me whole again
You're my angel
My sun up in the sky
We've been through hell and back together
Why you want to leave me now
Only you can ease the pain I feel
And wipe my tears away
You've been gone too long so won't you come back home

See I go by the name of Big Woody Rock
And I'd just like you to take this time right here
To just first of all thank you all for taking the time out to listen to this album
Hope you're enjoying everything you hear so far
Right now I think I need to dedicate this song, this next song coming up to
Every man and woman, boy or girl whoever and wherever you may be, who has ever been
In an relationship that just didn't quite work out
Also this song is dedicated to everybody who comes up to me in all the clubs
Supermarkets, airports, and everywhere else in the world asking me, "Woody when
You gon' do something, when they gon' let you sang?"
Not knowing that man I sung all of "April Showers" a verse on "All Alone"
A verse on "5 Steps" and about half the songs on the album but that's cool y'all
Ain't know
Alright now I just want you to sit back, close your eyes, kick your feet up and
Listen to this song right here 'cause this here is for y'all
Yo smiley, you ready?
