Origins
JJ Fad was originally a six-member group out of Los Angeles in 1985. Its members were Juana Burns, Dania Burks, Michelle Franklin, Anna Cash, Fatima Shaheed, and Juanita Lee. JJ Fad actually was formed from the first names of the members. The six-member group released one song, 1987's "Another Hoe," which took jabs at Roxanne Shante.
Due to management and financial issues, Cash, Shaheed, and Lee left the group, leaving JJ Fad as a trio with DJ Train as their MC.

“Lucretius
Sings his great theory of natural origins and of wise conduct; Plato
smiling carves dreams, bright cells
Of incorruptible wax to hive the Greek honey.”

—Katharine Hamnett (b. 1948)
“The settlement of America had its origins in the unsettlement of Europe. America came into existence when the European was already so distant from the ancient ideas and ways of his birthplace that the whole span of the Atlantic did not widen the gulf.”
