10x Billboard Charting R&B Group Sentury Release New Hit Single “Don’t Mind”

Fresh off their back-to-back #1 Billboard hits “Only Human” and “Forever,” these Houston-based R&B hitmakers are turning the temperature all the way up with “Don’t Mind,” a late-night slow jam dripping in tension, anticipation, and grown-man restraint. Serving as the next chapter to the love story introduced in “Forever,” the record picks up after the vows. Built around the seductive refrain, “If I kiss you like this, hold you like this tonight,” the record captures that electric moment when two people already know where the night could go, but nobody’s rushing it.

As the first R&B group in 25 years to land a Billboard #1, the 10x Billboard-charting quartet has amassed millions of streams and views while earning placements on major editorial playlists across Apple Music, Amazon Music, and Pandora. The group also performed at Essence Fest and has received acclaim from Billboard, Rated R&B, Great Day Houston, and many more.

With roots deep in Houston, TX, R&B powerhouse Sentury is carrying the torch for the Golden Era of modern R&B. Their music nods to the legacy of classic groups, with rich layered harmonies and heartfelt storytelling combined with a sleek modern edge. Together, Leo, CJ, AJ, and Rico deliver what they proudly call “grown man R&B.”

Sentury’s origins trace back to church, with all four teen members finding one another while singing at services and fellowships. The group initially began in 2011 with a tight musical bond between Leo, AJ and Rico, but they knew they needed a special fourth to complete the group. When they discovered the enormous talent in CJ, they wasted no time. After getting a seal of approval from CJ’s mother, the magic of Sentury was formed.

Sentury’s style is silk in motion. They embody rich harmonies, vintage cool, and unapologetic soul draped in smooth suits and dimly lit desire. Blending smooth velvety vocals, swaying basslines, and rich live instrumentation, their sound is seductive yet understated, emotional yet resilient, and classic while still fresh.

The hitmakers have 10 Billboard-charting songs. Initially signed with a major label, they made the decision to go independent when Leo of the group founded his own record label, Gateway Records. This decision let Sentury obtain full creative and promotional control, fueling their success. Their 2025 single “Only Human” is a fresh but faithful reimagining of the Jeffrey Osborne classic. The single climbed to #1 on Billboard’s Adult R&B chart and electrified audiences nationwide, garnering praise from industry legends including the original hitmakers themselves. The achievement cemented Sentury as not just carriers of the R&B tradition, but as innovators shaping its future. Their follow-up release “Forever,” also released in 2025, reached #1 on the Billboard charts, giving the group two back-to-back #1 singles, a milestone that few artists will ever reach. “Forever” is an emotionally-charged track celebrating the themes of enduring love, devotion, and commitment. The song’s harmonies and melodies beautifully convey the passionate feelings of finding someone who brings pure joy and completes your world. Now in 2026, their latest release “Don’t Mind” continues the storyline, with Leo describing it as “a follow-up to the love story in ‘Forever’. The couple is planning their wedding and life together.”

In an era filled with disposal dating, Sentury stands for something deeper – genuine romance, real connection, and music with meaning. They aren’t just reviving R&B; they’re redefining it for a generation craving authenticity, proving that true soul never goes out of style.
