P.M. Dawn is an abbreviation of the idea that In The Darkest Hour Comes The Light ,says Prince Be in explanation of their name. Being children of the decade that made big shoulder pads and greed the latest accessories, P.M. Dawn vibed off of hip hop, R&B, pop music and rock while always finding solace and joy in music. Because they loved everything, they combined it all together in a big, alternative cocktail and laid their first demo to tape.
At first everyone turned them down because their sound was too hard to define. They finally found a spark of interest with fledgling label Warlock and released a 12-inch. P.M. Dawn left Warlock for greener pastures at boutique record label Gee Street. Next, they found themselves caught off guard when Set A Drift On Memory Bliss was leaked by a radio jock. Soon the whole country was bumping the song and the video propelled it to the next level. P.M. Dawn created a classic record and the term alternative was used to describe the song because it just didnt fit into any categories.
Comprised of”Bliss Brothers” Prince Be (The Utopian Lord) and Doc.G (The Doc Of the Dawn), the early-’90s group P.M. Dawn straddled the gap between hip-hop and smooth ’70s-style soul, creating an innovative urban R&B that owed as much to pop as it did to rhythm and blues. Recording their debut single, “Ode to a Forgetful Mind,” in 1988, P.M.
