Before Pharrell & Chad formed The Neptunes, and even before L.A. Reid and Babyface got their break, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis were the go-to production team and they gave birth to the "super-producer" in the pop and urban music scene. After being hired and fired from The Time by their high school friend/boss Prince, for missing a show and "giving away" their "sound" (The Minneapolis Sound/MPLSound) to another group, The S.O.S. Band, the pair went on to create music for folks ranging from Janet Jackson to the new wave group Human League. They are second to Quincy Jones in Hit songs on Billboard and Awards.
