Jagged Edge have been charting with their harmonized R&B hits since their 1997 debut. The group met in Georgia. After a few demo-shopping excursions, they came to the attention of Jermaine Dupri, who promptly signed them to his So So Def label. The debut was a modest success, but the group truly blew up with the release of J.E. Heartbreak and have continued their chart pyrotechnics with 2001's Jagged Little Thrill. Yet despite the few rap-infused mid-tempo numbers, at their heart Jagged Edge are sensitive balladeers with words to say on a variety of domestic issues.
