After the success of Funkmobile the band was signed to A&M Records, and released their second album Memories of the Soulshack Survivors in 1995.[6]
In 1996, the band had their first breakout top 40 hit, "I Cry", which would enter the top 20 on the Pop and Adult Contemporary charts in Canada. Following the release of their second album, the band toured until 1997, opening for groups such as Cypress Hill, Busta Rhymes, TLC and James Brown. Despite their rapid rise to success and signing a major label record deal, the band members decided that their original intentions for creating the group had been forgotten, and disbanded to pursue other interests.[6]
