[edit] Singing career

The 411 were a four piece English female R&B group formed late in 2002. The band formed after a couple of the members sang back up vocals on Lemar's version of Al Green's "Let's Stay Together". The band took its name after the Mary J. Blige song "What's The 411?".

The group's first single "On My Knees" was written by band member Carolyn Owlett although credited to The 411, featured Ghostface Killah of the Wu-Tang Clan and was a hit in the UK (reaching top 5) and Australia (reaching top 30). A second single, "Dumb", reached top 3 in the UK and also reached the top 30 in Australia. These singles appeared on their album, Between The Sheets, featuring songs written by Diane Warren and Dion of Big Brovaz, Redeye, and The 411 themselves. A third single was also released, preceding the album by one week, called "Teardrops", but only made #23 in the UK. Following the merger of Sony Music with BMG the group were dropped by Sony Music, and went their separate ways. They are still unsuccessful at being re-signed. There are rumours that the band will re-form with a different name as the name THE 411 is legally owned by Carolyn Owlett.
