The "New Jill Flava" trio
Total comprised singers Kima,
Pam, and
Keisha; signed to
Sean "Puffy" Combs' Bad Boy Entertainment label, they first attracted attention backing
the Notorious B.I.G. on his hits "One More Chance" and "Juicy" soon after scoring their own hit with the single "Can't You See" from the soundtrack to the film New Jersey Drive.
Total's self-titled debut LP followed in 1996, launching the hits "No One Else," "Kissin' You," and "Do You Think About Us?" The single "Trippin'" preceded the release of
Total's second LP, 1998's
Kima, Keisha & Pam. In 2000, they were featured on
Tony Touch's "I Wonder Why (He's the Greatest DJ)", and in 2002 they joined reggae artist
Mad Lion on his single "Give It to Me." Little was heard from the group until 2015 when they reunited and toured the U.S. as
R. Kelly's opening act. ~ Jason Ankeny
