"Day26" has given Bad Boy two number one albums in as many weeks, following the success of "Welcome to the Dollhouse", for the first in the history of the label. The guys moved over 190,000 units. Not only that, but their debut represents the biggest selling debut for a male R&B group in the SoundScan era, according to Bad Boy.
Their second single will be "Since You've Been Gone" and they will be featured on BET's Spring Bling, debuting on April 10. The full press release contains various Bad Boy related factoids, so I am going to include it below.

The Rochester Democrat & Chronicle has a feature on Qwanell Mosley of Day 26. Mosley is from Rochester.
Well, it does in the testosterone-soaked world of R&B. But the truth is, Que had to become the man in the family quickly. As he tells the story, his father was riding a bicycle to work when two brothers in a nearby house began arguing. One pulled a gun and fired, the bullet went through an open window and struck Tony Mosley-Mays in the head.
"I remember it all," Que says, even though he was only 4 at the time. "He used to go to work at one of those corner stores, one that my granddad owned. I was supposed to meet him down there that day."
"He has a huge love for his family, for his sister, for his mom," Dewey says. "He's just very family-oriented. He has a good sense of who he is. He has his religion. I don't think I ever saw him complaining. If he had problems, he always talked them out. He didn't bottle them up. Everybody has problems; he worked them out."
EURweb.com has an interview with Day 26.
“Diddy was real hands on,” Will said. “We didn’t see a whole lot of him, but when we cut something, we had to cut it three or four times because it had to get approved by Diddy. He definitely didn’t let anything go out of the studio that he didn’t like. He has made us better artists by putting us in the studio and not letting us come out. It can sound good, but if it doesn’t have any emotion in it – I don’t care how many riffs you do – if you don’t have a connection emotionally with the song, you will stay in the studio until you do.”
“It’s kind of like how Mary J. Blige’s story is,” he continued. “She may not be the best vocalist in the world, but you’re gonna leave the performance crying because you felt the emotion. I think we all appreciate him for that.”
Despite what was on the 106 & Park website and I had been told, Day 26 was a no show for today's episode of 106 & Park.
Update: Just to be clear, I do know they were on, on Monday. But, they had said they'd be on, on Tuesday. So, I think there was just a miscue. They had a nice performance on Monday, though.
