After graduating from Bordentown Regional High in 1987, Farris attended Mercer County Community College, where she studied photography. Farris entered into the Miss Hemisphere Pageant regional competitions, directly after high school and won her first and only pageant as 1987’s Miss Hemisphere’s Adult Talent, singing Whitney Houston’s Saving All My Love for You in Miami, Florida. But it was music that really drew Farris, and she joined a band in Plainfield, New Jersey, known as 2.0 and later as Breaking Ground. They began performing on the Manhattan’s club circuit, and looked to sign a record deal. Farris decided to move to Atlanta with her then boyfriend Donald “Rasa Don” Jones (one of the earlier members of Arrested Development), where her father lived, to try to establish herself in the then-nascent African American cultural renaissance that was building in that Southern city. After a short while Farris hooked up with then-wunderkind Atlanta producer Jermaine Dupri and began writing songs for Atlanta-based acts such as TLC and singing backgrounds for acts such as Xscape, and El Debarge. She signed a management contract with Michael Mauldin’s (father of Dupri) company as a solo artist, but would later become a member of a girl group they were producing, known as Onyx (a name later co- opted by a semi-gangsta rap group).

After the success of “Tennessee”, she began to receive media attention, and Chrysalis, (Arrested Development’s then label) A&R Duff Marlo offered Farris a solo deal, contingent upon Speech producing the project, but she rejected the offer in search of a deal where she would have artistic control. Farris began experiencing personal and business conflicts with the group’s leader, despite the success of “Tennessee” (the band’s first and biggest hit in 1992). Farris was never an official member of the band, and she left the group altogether in Atlanta in September 1992, before a show, at the Fox Theater, after having a fight with Speech and co- leader Headliner.
