Throwback Thursdays: Damian Dame – Exclusivity

Sandra Rose July 17, 2008

Damian Dame was the first group signed to LaFace Records. The duo consisted of Debra Jean “Deah Dame” Hurd, who died in a car accident on June 27, 1994. And Bruce Edward “Damian” Broadus who died of complications related to AIDS on June 27, 1996 – 2 years to the day Hurd died. Damian Dame’s New Jack Swing hit “Exclusivity” was LaFace’s first #1 hit.

I thought Damian died from colon cancer. This is the group Chilli danced with before TLC. The jam is ‘gotta learn my rhythm.’

I remember that song even though I don’t remember the group or video. I’m sorry to hear both members died prematurely.

@pointhimout: Yeah, I’m with you. I read somewhere that Damian passed away from some form of cancer. I think it was stomach cancer.

I remeber seeing them on “The Apollow Show” and that was long ago. It was so sad to hear both of them passed away.

Yeah, I like the remix version. That was the jsm back in the day.

So sad…yes, he did die from colon cancer. It was not AIDS complications Sandra!

The whole LaFace Cartel was hot back in the day, I still listen to Reversal of a Dog. His hair was laid on the Get Right Down To It video. I’m having major flashbacks to real music.

Wow, I didn’t know that they both had passed away. Just a few weeks ago I was trying to get my friend to remember the group by singing Exclusivity to him. I searched and searched for the video but couldn’t find it.
