Portrait is an American R&B and hip hop vocal quartet, consisting of members Michael Angelo Saulsberry, Irving Washington III, Eric Kirkland and Philip Johnson.
The quartet group's music sound was influenced by the new jack swing style of the late 1980s and early 1990s.
The group, which hailed from Los Angeles, California debuted in 1992 with a self-titled album riding on the end of the new jack swing era.
The album had a few minor hits, with "I Can Call You" reaching #22 on the R&B charts and "How Deep Is Your Love", a cover of the Bee Gees song, briefly appearing on the Hot 100.
