She felt that she did not want to be part of a girl band, and thus left the band to pursue her solo career. The three remaining girls proceeded to record there debut album under management of Telstar Records. In 2001, they released their debut album titled 'Lickin' On Both Sides', and it went to 3 on the UK Album Chart.
