[edit] Career

She had two moderate hits on the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart in the mid-eighties. Those singles were "Time Bomb" and "Don't Leave Me This Way" which peaked at #22 on that chart. After a hiatus from recording, Tracy returned, releasing her second album, It's My Time in 1995 in the UK on Pulse-8 records. The album scored a huge underground hit with the title track in the States. After releasing a steady stream of increasingly popular singles, Tracy experienced a career resurgence in the late nineties which resulted in two Top 20 U.S. Hot Dance Music/Club Play with "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" (1998) and "Keep The Party Jumpin'" (1999). In 2001 her collaboration with Rosabel, "The Power", spent one week at number one. In 2004, week of June 26, she again reached number one on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart with "Cha Cha Heels" another collaboration with Rosabel.

[edit] Recent Times

Tracy's third number one came in February 2007 with "Party People", a collaboration with Altar. The rabid success of her singles in recent years has prompted her and her producers to plan a possible full length album. If it materializes, it would be her first album in over a decade. Tracy's follow up single, "Everybody Up", also produced by Altar, was released in April 2008.
