Debuting in 2001, this trio had hits in 7 different countries, toured across Europe, and sold over 300.000 copies of (I'm Digging Your) Steelo. I.V. announced his departure in Oct 2002 due to personal issues.

After numerous auditions and screenings they still hadn't found the right substitute for I.V. One day Crown told See that his younger brother E.J. was singing in an R&B formation, but that the group at that time didn't have any potential. E.J. received the invitation with open arms.
