After 3 years the group came back with the summer hit "Do It to It" which featured Sean Paul of the YoungBloodZ.

After the summer hit "Do It to It", their debut album was released off Capitol Records on August 15 2006 and was named Unappreciated. It debuted on the chart at number 4 selling 91,000 copies making it one of the only R&B girl group projects to hit the top 5 on the Billboard 200 in almost a year.
