There are so many achievements that Boyz II Men have accomplished that it's amazing to think that they were once just four "regular guys".
They have definitely made a profound impact on Pop and R&B music throughout the world, which is not bad for a couple of guys from Philadelphia, who made tremendous sacrifices to pursue their dreams, not knowing whether or not they would be realized.
