'''Pretty Ricky''' is an [[African American]] [[Hip hop music|rap]] and [[R&B]] group from [[Miami]], [[Florida]]. The band is comprised of four brothers, Corey "Slick'em" Mathis, age 21, Diamond Blue "Baby Blue" Smith, age 22, Spectacular Blue Smith, age 20, and Marcus "Pleasure P" Cooper, age 21. Their debut album, [[Bluestars]], was released on [[May 23]], [[2005]] and features the hit [[U.S.]] top ten single, "[[Grind With Me]]." Then came their next two singles "Your Body" and "Juicy." Later, their fourth single "Nothin' But A Number" was released, but like "Juicy," a video was never made. In [[2005]], Pretty Ricky joined other R&B/hip-hop acts including Bow Wow and Omarion on the Scream 4 Tour.

Members Slick 'Em, Spectacular, and Baby Blue were once known as the Maverix, alongside Prettie Rickie Rickie back in [[1997]]. They released tracks like "Flossin'," "So Fresh So Clean," and "La La La," all of which were local hits in Miami. As Marcus was struggling making a name for his self on his own. Due to legal disputes, Slick, Spec, and Blue decided to drop the name "Maverix" and their band mate and brother, Prettie Rickie Rickie (Joseph Smith), and added their brother Marcus (Pleasure P) and later called themselves "Pretty Ricky."

'''Pretty Ricky''' is an American [[Contemporary R&B|R&B]]/[[hip hop]] group originating from [[Miami]], [[Florida]]. The group originally consisted of 2 brothers, Diamond (Baby Blue) Smith, [[Spectacular Smith]], their cousin Corey (Slick 'Em) Mathis, and an unrelated member, Marcus ([[Pleasure P]]) Cooper. Pleasure P was the group's main singer, while the other three members performed as [[Rapping|rappers]]. After he departed in 2007 to embark on a solo career, the group shuffled through several replacement vocalists.
 
The name "Pretty Ricky" was taken from a character in the sitcom ''[[Martin (TV series)|Martin]]''. The group enjoyed its biggest success in the mid-2000s with their gold-selling albums ''[[Bluestars (album)|Bluestars]]'' and ''[[Late Night Special]]'', and the platinum singles "[[Grind With Me]]" and "[[On The Hotline|On the Hotline]]".

In 1997, while performing together in [[Miami]], Pretty Ricky was signed to Bluestar Entertainment by CEO Joseph "Blue" Smith. Supported by their father, Joseph Smith Sr., who also served as the band's manager and who is of [[Jamaicans|Jamaican]] descent, the group developed their music under the name of "Pretty Rickie and The Maverix" before changing it to "Pretty Ricky", with the group being named after [[Miguel A. Nunez Jr.]]'s character on Martin. With the help from producer [[Jim Jonsin]] of the Unusual Suspects production team, Pretty Ricky began to gain desirable attention through their local performances. However, it was not until 2002 that the group encountered their initial success as their song "Flossin'" became a huge hit on Miami radio station [[Power 96]].<ref>{{cite web |last=Venable |first=Malcolm |date=March 9, 2006 |title=Pretty Ricky &#124; MusicWorld |url=https://www.bmi.com/news/entry/20060310pretty_ricky_pretty_ricky |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191012021940/https://www.bmi.com/news/entry/20060310pretty_ricky_pretty_ricky |archive-date=October 12, 2019 |access-date=October 12, 2019 |publisher=BMI.com}}</ref>
