Kool Moe Dee launched his own successful solo career in the mid-1980s.
Kool Moe Dee was also well-known for the one of the earliest recordings of a mix-tape MC battle against another pioneer Chief Rocker Busy Bee Starski. The outcome of that particular battle rap essentially ended Busy Bee's reign as a crowd favorite and ushered in a new era of hip-hop
The group sometimes performed and recorded along with Spoonie Gee as Spoonie Gee & Treacherous Three.
