About

Mr. President was a German Eurodance musical group known for the crossover hit "Coco Jamboo", released in 1996. The group is also known in Europe for the dance hits "Up'n Away", "I'll Follow the Sun", "I Give You My Heart", "4 on the Floor", "Jojo Action", and the albums Up'n Away – The Album and We See the Same Sun.

Mr. President was originally formed in 1991 in Bremen by producers Jens Neumann and Kai Matthiesen. Initially, the group consisted of German singers Judith Hildebrandt (T-Seven), Daniela Haak (Lady Danii), and American rapper George Jones (Sir Prophet). In 1994, Jones was replaced by British rapper Delroy Rennalls (Layzee Dee). When Hildebrandt departed from the act in 2000 to pursue a solo career, singer Nadia Ayche joined the group as her replacement. However, Ayche was quickly succeeded by singer Myra Beckmann in 2001. After Beckmann also left the act in 2003, singer Franziska Frank (Franzi) joined the group. By 2008, Mr. President had officially disbanded.
Since 2008, Rennalls has continued to tour across Europe as LayZee, formerly of Mr. President, in addition to releasing his own solo material. In 2014, he recruited Hungarian-born singer Erika Kovács into his live act. Today, Rennalls and Kovács perform the Mr. President hits as a live duo act worldwide.
