Daydreamin' (Before Dark album)

Daydreamin' is the only album released by R&B group, Before Dark. It was released on July 11, 2000 through RCA Records, about a year after it was originally set to be released. The group's first two singles, "Come Correct" and "Baby" were released in 1998 and 1999 respectively, but neither was met with much success and RCA decided to delay the album. Early in 2000 the group's third and most successful single "Monica" was released and peaked at 77 on the Billboard 200 and 7 on the Billboard Hot 100. Three months after the release of "Monica", Daydreamin' was finally released.
