Peaceful Journey was released on July 2, 1991, for Uptown Records and was produced by Pete Rock, DJ Eddie F, Teddy Riley, Marley Marl and Howie Tee. Which, happens to be an all-star line up for those who aren't familiar.
Close to a year prior to the release (July 15, 1991), group member Troy "Trouble T Roy" Dixon, died after an accidental fall; after a concert and while dancing, Dixon lost his balance, fell from a balcony, puncturing his head. Later that evening, he was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital. Several cuts on this album pay tribute to Dixon, and subsequently attained Platinum status, peaking at number 21 on the Billboard 200 and number 5 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
This track, and also the lead-single, "Now That We Found Love" hit number 2 on the UK Billboard and number 11 on the US.
Guests on the album include Aaron Hall, Big Daddy Kane, Grand Puba, Kool G. Rap, Q-Tip, Pete Rock & CL Smooth, Daddy Freddy and K-Ci & JoJo.
Legendary.
