History
Formation
REDi (pronounced red-eye)
Founding members include producer and songwriter
The members met as collaborators with Redwine. According to Blackwell, "We were all working with Redwine and respected each other’s music, so it just made sense for us to further our collaborations with a group.”[1] Responding to the perception that REDi is a boy band, Blackwell also stated, "We are not. We were not methodically constructed. The formation of REDi was organic in every way.”[1]
Their name has various meanings: "We like the symbolism of the color red – power, passion, love etc. With Redwine being our producer it made sense to keep the word 'RED' in the name, then we added the 'I' to represent the individuality that we each maintain and contribute to the group.”[1]
Debut releases
The group made their debut performance in March 2012 at
They released their debut single "Light the Club" in May 2012.[10] Their debut mixtape, Red Pill,[6][11] was released in November 2012,[12] with key tracks including "Love Fast" and "Give a F*ck."
