The
Temptations, often
referred to as “American Music Royalty,” are
world-renowned superstars of entertainment, revered
for their phenomenal catalog of music, and prolific
career. Named the “#1 R&B/Hip Hop Artists
of All Time” and one of the “125 Greatest of All
Time Artists” by Billboard Magazine,
as well as one of the “100 Greatest Artists of All
Time” by Rolling Stone
Magazine, the group is truly a beloved
“National Treasure.”
The Four
Tops is the
legendary quartet behind some of the most memorable
hits of Motown, including "Baby I Need Your
Loving," "I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie,
Honey Bunch)" and "Ain’t No Woman (Like the One I’ve Got)." Inducted into the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990, the Tops also
received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award and
were ranked #79 on Rolling Stone’s list of the 100
Greatest Artists of All Time.
