In 2009, R5 officially started the band and debuted their YouTube web series, R5 TV, documenting the band's day-to-day life and career beginning. On September 5, they released their first music video, "Without You", directed by Riker. The band self-released a five-track EP entitled Ready Set Rock on March 9, 2010, consisting of songs written primarily by Riker, Rocky, Rydel, vocal coach Mauli B, and band coach E-Vega, who produced the EP.
Since then, they kept their activities until February 1, 2018, when R5 posted on their YouTube a video called The Last Show. Then on March 1, 2018, the band's social networks name changed to "The Driver Era." Announced as a new project, it was a indefinite time hiatus for R5 and the beginning of a new band, "The Driver Era", officially constituted by Ross and Rocky, in order to start again in the industry musical and avoid association with Disney and underestimation by most people. Ellington, Riker and Rydel are also present at the live concerts and some songs that were already in the plans for the R5 to launch will be/were released by The Driver Era, among them "Preacher Man" and "Can You Come Over?". When questioned about the return of R5, members say it is not in the plans, but that no one predicts the future and anything can happen in the current music industry.

It's hard to speak
Mumbling my poetry
But talk is cheap
Your body's saying other things
No need to fear
'Cause the crew is here
If tonight you're free
Flowing like no other
Can I get another?
Must be nice to look like that (yeah)
Who gave you my number?
They deserve a pay bump
Who taught you to move like that?
Say that you want me just to want somebody
Tell me you need me 'cause I need somebody
None of these lines will ever make you love me
Hurts good to want ya
Crave the pain I get from you
A killer queen
Never really as she seems
A superfreak (a superfreak)
She's stalling with her magazines
But I'm right here
And I volunteer
If tonight you're free (tonight)
Oh come and get a groove with me (ooh)
Hey, I know you're trouble
Pouring me a double
Damn, it's nice to feel like that
You're my biggest wonder
I think I could love ya
Must be nice to live like that
Say that you want me just to want somebody
Tell me you need me 'cause I need somebody
None of these lines will ever make you love me
Hurts good to want ya
Crave the pain I get from you
Oh
(Hey)
Ooh, baby
My head aches, my heart aches, I'm awake, I'm alive
My head aches, my heart aches, I'm awake, I'm alive
Say that you want me just to want somebody

None of these lines will ever make you love me
Hurts good to want ya
Crave the pain I get from you
Whoa
(Hey)
Hurts good to want ya crave the pain I get from you (hey)
The lyrics of R5's song "Hurts Good" depict an intense attraction to a woman who is difficult to read. The singer acknowledges that talking is useless in the face of the "body language" that the woman is communicating. He offers himself as an option, insisting that he's "right here/And I volunteer/If tonight you're free." The song also references the idea of wanting something or someone that is bad for you. The chorus states, "None of these lines will ever make you love me/Hurts good to want ya/Crave the pain I get from you." The sentiment suggests that the attraction is fueled by the intensity of the pain it causes.
The lyrics also touch on the themes of appearance and deception. The woman is described as a "killer queen" who is "never really as she seems" and "stalling with her magazines." Her physical beauty is mentioned several times, but the singer also notes that her attractiveness is deceptive, referring to her as a "superfreak."

it’s nice when a band matures because you can keep listening to them as you grow up. i’ve been watching these guys since i was 11 or 12 and i honestly don’t feel weird at all still listening to them because their sound has matured so well.
