Additional Information Promotion (at time of release) Trivia The album was released concurrently with the movie Krush Groove, so the two acted as cross-promotion. Krush Groove is the first album to contain a song written by Prince (Holly Rock) and a song written by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis (Force MDs' Tender Love). Both songs were released as singles. While Holly Rock did not enter the charts, Tender Love reached number 4 in the US Billboard Hot Black Singles chart and number 10 on US Billboard Hot 100.
