The three successful R&B singers have been best friends for more than a decade. In fact Tyrese was the best man at Ginuwine's wedding. In an interview, Tyrese noted that he Ginuwine and Tank had spoken about forming TGT for many years, as it would be the "ultimate R&B fan experience" to see them perform live.
“Me, Tank and Ginuwine been talking about this forever. The reason why this makes sense is that besides all of us being R&B singers, we're all good friends. Every time I see Tank, every time I see Ginuwine, we all had good energy regardless" he gushed.

Soul Train Award winner Ginuwine has proven himself to be one of R&B's pre-eminent idols during the heyday of hip-hop soul. His sultry, seductive crooning has earned him a substantial female following and made him a regular presence on the R&B charts over the years. His powerful vocals have graced some of the biggest songs of our time including 'All Night All Day,' 'Bedda Man,' 'Differences' and 'G. Thang.'
Grammy nominated singer Tank has a hefty catalogue of hit songs dating back to his 2001 release 'Maybe I Deserve' that climbed to the number #7 position on the US R&B charts.
