The Story Behind The Names Of 15 Of Your Favorite R&B Groups
Jagged Edge
Jagged Edge’s name actually comes from the 1985 film of the same name, which starred Glenn Close and Jeff Bridges. Random, right?
“At the time we had a name that nobody liked, including us,” Brandon Casey told Billboard magazine. “Then another male group came out of Atlanta calling themselves A Few Good Men. That started me looking at movie titles. Jagged Edge had no significant meaning at the time. I just loved the sound of the name. And we adapted it to mean rough around the edges… that was kind of our story.”
