The duo also provided vocals for OutKast's 1996 single Jazzy Belle during this time. In 1999, the group released their debut album, The Once and Future. The duo wrote and co-produced the album in conjunction with members of The Roots. Helping to feed the neo-soul movement, the girls started Black Lily, "A Women in Music Series. " The series acts as a showcase for neo-soul artists including Alicia Keys, Jill Scott, and Bilal. In addition to recording their own albums, they have toured with and sung background vocals for The Roots. The Tortoise and The Hare, the group's second album, was released in September 2002 through Coolhunter/Ryko. Their third album, The World Is Coming, has been released for limited downloading, but has not yet seen wide commercial release.
