El segundo álbum del grupo, Non-Fiction, no tuvo mucho éxito comercial debido la poca promoción que hicieron del disco. Titus y McLean se separarían pronto para comenzar sus carreras en solitario. En 2000, se reunieron para grabar una canción para la banda sonora de la película Once in the Life. Actualmente planean grabar una mixtape, 8WM, prevista para el verano de 2006.
