Smilez and Southstar was a hip-hop duo based in Orlando, Florida. They had a Top 40 hit with the song "Tell Me" in late 2002.[1]

Beginnings

Early success 2002-2003

The group's first single was "Who Wants This" featuring Kelis. The song had an underground vibe to it and created a buzz but still didn't crack the top 40. The group's next single, "Tell Me", hit the Top 40 charts. The duo then followed it up with "Now That You're Gone".

The group has been quiet since their switch in labels due to poor success of their album Crash the Party. They were signed to Reincarnate, an indie label, but now have created their own independent record label Groundworks Entertainment. The label features reggae artist Viper and rapper Vill.
