Random
Band, 2005-2007 AU
Hip-Hop/Rap
Random was a 5-member Australian R&B group who, in 2005, won the first series of the The X Factor (Australia). It was by chance Random formed. Latu and Tolo-Paepae arrived at the Brisbane auditions as a duo named Rough Diamonds while T.J. Tauvao came to try his luck as a solo artist, with brother Wayne and cousin Donald in tow for moral support. The five, who met briefly before at a youth talent quest and at a K-Ci and JoJo concert, began jamming in the queue and decided to form a group. Their popularity soared on the show and eventually Random won the contest. Random released its first single, Put Your Hands Up, after winning. It reached number seven on the ARIA chart while the second single, Are You Ready, peaked at 36. Another coup came when Random was invited to support US soul group Boyz II Men on tour across Australian and New Zealand. The group's self-titled debut album was released in October 2005, which was met with a relatively muted response.
