In 1997, Toni Cottura left the act soon followed by Rod D, Marie-Anett and Steve. Three new members replaced them: Alfonso Walser (Al) and Tiger One (T-Roc) for the rapping and Anett Möller as the new female vocalist.
After a few minor hits, mostly concentrated in Europe and Asia, the group ceased to exist in 2003.

In 2008 the current owner of the trademark and producer Rekardo Heilig decided to re-animate the project with all new faces and new tracks.
