Who is Sisqo?

Sisqo
Date of birth
9 November 1978
Baltimore, Maryland, USA

Birth name
Mark Durell Andrews



The name "Sisqo" was his nickname from his old neighborhood in Baltimore, as his childhood friends thought his light curly hair made him look Latino.

This Sisqo established his performing credentials as a founding member of highly successful urban R&B quartet Dru Hill, who enjoyed worldwide hits in the late 90s with singles such as 'How Deep Is Your Love' and 'These Are The Times'.

Sisqó's music vocal style has a lot in common with that of K-Ci Hailey from the R&B group Jodeci. As such, several people, K-Ci included, have criticized Sisqó as having co-opted K-Ci's singing style wholesale, while Sisqó himself has gone on record many times naming K-Ci as his primary influence.

Sisqó's visual trademarks are his eclectic hair styles and his flamboyant stage costumes, which were regularly flashier than those of his groupmates. Over his career as a recording artist, both with and without Dru Hill, Sisqó's hairstyles have included a bleached blond Caesar, a platinum-colored Caesar, blond cornrows, and a neon–red dyed Caesar.
