For the uninitiated, Montell Jordan sang the seminal 90s hit “This Is How We Do It.”

The Grammy-nominated artist left the music game full-time about a decade ago to become the pastor at Victory World Church in Norcross, where he remains.

Jordan, whose real name is Montell Du'Sean Barnett, also last month gave a sermon at the 75th Easter sunrise service at Stone Mountain.

Also nominated for a Grammy in 1995, Jon B. had two Billboard top-10 hits with "They Don't Know" and "Someone To Love" featuring Babyface.

Jon B., whose real name is Jonathan David Buck, had album "Cool Relax"  go platinum, meaning it sold at least 1 million units, in the summer of 1998.

Cherrelle, born Cheryl Anne Norton, had popular mid-80s hits “I Didn't Mean to Turn You On” and “Saturday Love” with Alexander O’Neal — the latter was No. 26 on Billboard’s Hot 100 during 1986.
