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

"I thought I wouldn't really give a fuck, but now a bitch all in love, don't mean to be a hater, but OOH SHIT DAMN you're so good, so good, so good, so good, OOH SHIT DAMN.'
(What else in the world is really as... joyously and unconditionally celebratory of female sexuality as this album?)
((Probably an academic question, but still.))

yeah beyond this did this record ever have much traction in the SJ or feminist community? posting on ilx always makes it hard to judge what the real world thinks of things but it seems like this was a couple years too early for both r&b's acceptance by the pitchfork crowd and the rise of tumblr etc

Sometimes I use my old ipod at the gym and their album's songs pop up. Another one would be nice
1 member was in NYC doing choreography in 2016
The up-tempo musical numbers, choreographed by Kyndra Binkie Reevey, give the convoluted plot nice jolts of energy and are danced with ebullient relish by the cast. But “Cherchez La Femme,” unlike Kid Creole’s best songs, never really finds a comfortable groove.
