Artist:No Mercy
Song:Please Don't Go
Album:No Mercy
No Mercy is a now forgotten boy band that had success with the 1997 album No Mercy and a couple of hit singles. They were formed in Miami by Bronx native Marty Cintron and twin brothers Ariel and Gabriel Hernandez. German producer Frank Farian saw Cintron perform in Miami and brought him to his studio in Germany. Farian is famous as the guy behind Boney M and infamous as the guy behind Milli Vanilli. With boy bands hot at the time, Farian told Cintron that a group would be the best way to go. Cintron brought the Hernandez twins in. They were dancers who could choreograph a stage act. No Mercy was signed to BMG's German label Hansa. When No Mercy's second single Where Do You Go? was a hit in Europe, Arista picked up No Mercy for the US. Where Do You Go? reached #5 on the Billboard Hot 100. Please Don't Go reached #21. The album was certified Gold in the US but it was more successful in Europe. No Mercy released a second album More in 1998. It did not do as well. Arista did not release it in the US. Since then No Mercy have released a few singles and a 2007 album. Cintron continues to perform in Europe as No Mercy. Here's the video for Please Don't Go by No Mercy.
