[edit] Biography
A four-member R&B group from Chicago, One Chance—Rob Brent, Jon Gordon, Michael Gordon, and Courtney Vantrease—got their break when they performed for Usher, who then signed them to his label, US Records.[1][2]
Originally a quintet, the group's début was on the 2005 soundtrack for In the Mix, with the songs "That's My Word" and "Could This Be Love".[3] The first single released was "That's My Word"; a fifth member who subsequently left can be seen in the video.[4]
In 2006, their single "Look at Her" reached number 53 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.[5] "U Can't", released in March 2008, peaked at number 73 on the Billboard R&B songs chart.[6]
[edit] Debut album
Originally slated for release in late 2006, their debut album, Private, was repeatedly pushed back and eventually shelved,[7] and the group was dropped by US Records. The group's debut album is now planned to be self-titled.[7]
