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.
April Showers
Dru Hill Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never take your love from me
'Cause I think I would lose my mind
If you would go away
Oh say you'll never leave my side
That forever you'll be mine
(Oh) April Shower me with your love
And yes I swear that I'll be here for you forever and all time
So if ever you feel lonely all you have to do is call me
And I'll be there to shower you with my love
Heaven must of smiled on me
Like it did the earth that day
When god created the sun and said let there be light
So I write your name across my heart
And proclaim it to the stars above
Oh April Shower me with your love
And girl I'll give you all the love I have
Inside this heart of mine
And yes I swear that I'll be here
For you forever and all time
So if ever you feel lonely
All you have to do is call me
And I'll be there to shower you with my love
Baby
Yea,Yea,Yea,Yea,Yea,Yea,Yea,Yea,Yea
Oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh

You
I love you,I need you,Your my heart and soul
So don't you ever go away
