MORET: Take one member of Tony Toni Tone, add a bit of Tribe Called Quest, and throw in an ex-member of En Vogue, and you have the sounds of Lucy Pearl. The hip-hop/urban soul supergroup was formed in the summer of 1999. Jodi Ross caught up with the musical all-stars in New York's Central Park.</s>JODI ROSS, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): The soulful sounds of Lucy Pearl.</s>DAWN ROBINSON, LUCY PEARL: As we were recording, I thought: "What are people going to think about this? Are they going to like it?" Because we had so much success with our other groups, it's in the back of your mind, but if it's in the forefront, you'll never put anything out. So you can't allow that kind of pressure to hold you back.</s>ROSS: Friends for a long time and fans of each other's music, this collaboration came easy.</s>ALI SHAHEED MUHAMMAD, LUCY PEARL: I just feel like we're making good music.</s>ROBINSON: But it's nothing that hasn't been done before. It's just right now, I guess, we're the only ones doing it in R&B;, hip-hop.</s>MUHAMMAD: So like a perfect marriage of all forms of music.</s>ROSS: "Dance Tonight" is the band's first single and was also featured in the film "Love & Basketball." As Lucy Pearl continues to shine, there's really just one question left. (on camera): What does the name mean?</s>RAPHAEL SAADIQ, LUCY PEARL: Wow! It doesn't mean absolutely nothing. Nothing. It means buy the record. Buy the record!</s>ROSS (voice-over): Jodi Ross, CNN Entertainment News, New York.</s>MORET: Good title then. In Hollywood, I'm Jim Moret. For Laurin Sydney and the rest of the SHOWBIZ gang, we'll see you tomorrow. We'll close our show with more music from Lucy Pearl.
