Virginia Beach Renames Street for Blackstreet | Virginia Beach News
Description
Virginia Beach just made music history—officially renaming Beasley Drive to BLACKstreet Boulevard in honor of the legendary R&B group that rose from the city’s streets. The Grammy-winning act, formed right next door by Chauncey Black, helped define ’90s crossover sound with hits like “No Diggity” and a self-titled debut that launched their career. Mayor Bobby Dyer praised their impact, linking them to Virginia Beach’s rich musical legacy—including Pharrell Williams. Chauncey, stunned and grateful, credited God for their success and promised a special hometown show to celebrate. The full ceremony is on Virginia Beach’s YouTube channel, starting at 2:22.
