It sank faster than an Electrik Red album. Andre Cymone wrote and produced all of it.
This did a little better -- more proto-ER:

Klymaxx was conceived and formed by Bernadette Cooper, who also chose the name. The dream of an all girl band became a quest she pursued after leaving college. Through many auditions and temporary members the group that became successful consisted of drummer/vocalist Bernadette Cooper, vocalist Lorena Porter (Stewart), bassist/vocalist Joyce Irby, guitarist Cheryl Cooley and keyboardists Lynn Malsby and Robbin Grider.
More recently, Irby has been involved with launching the career of young R&B vocalist and The Inc/Def Jam recording artist Lloyd. Lloyd Polite was once a member of the teen pop group N-Toon, whom Irby put together and signed to Dreamworks Records in the mid-1990s.

Haven't heard the Cooper album. She probably talks through the whole thing.

Electrik Red – will there ever be another album?
Man, someone just asked me about that today.
How to Be a Lady’s so slept on! It’s a perfect record.
Well that’s the point – it’s slept on! If everybody had just bought it then we’d have probably made four records by now. Solange loves that Electrik Red album. Every time we get a chance to talk she’s like ‘Electrik Red, that album…’. And I’m like ‘I know!’. We hit a home run with that album. But again, it comes back to marketing, there’s a lot of things that have to happen – people have to know that it’s there… It’s almost becoming a little cultural thing of its own though.

(saw terius live last night, it wasn't so worthwhile as to bump a thread but at least he did "fancy")
only 5000 people bought the Electrik Red album, but each of them became a bass music producer
