J.J. Fad - Supersonic

J.J. Fad (Just Jammin’ Fresh and Def) made history in 1988 when they became the first female rap group to be nominated for a Grammy for their pop-rap hit “Supersonic.” The L.A. trio — MC J.B. (Juana Burns),Baby D (Dania Birks), and Sassy C (Michelle Franklin) — were a stark contrast to their Ruthless labelmates and producers, N.W.A. Their 1988 debut, Supersonic, went platinum and stayed on the Billboard charts for over four months. - allmusic.com
