The 2016-obsession may have some degree of credibility. The year that ushered in the infamous Snapchat Dog filter, Pokemon GO, and the Mannequin Challenge also cemented the last year that British import (albeit with deep Philadelphia roots), Floetry performed as a duo.

Forming in 1999, Floetry gained success with the release of two albums, Floetry (2002) and Flo’Ology (2005), each serving as swan song nods to the NeoSoul era of R&B. Despite the release of two albums, the duo amassed a cult-like following plus critical acclaim with notable affiliations with acts such as Jill Scott and background writing for the late Michael Jackson; Musically, their style is best described as the union between smoky poetry/melodic hip-hop (Natalie Stewart) and sultry, passionate R&B, courtesy of Marsha Ambrosius.
