Otis Cooper and Rafael Howell were half brothers from Oakland, California. They grew up in the same neighbourhood with Raphael Saadiq who got to hear one of their demo tapes. The brothers were signed to Saadiq's label Pookie Records through Interscope. The year was 1995 and they released their first single "Keep It On The Real" and its follow up "Journey" the next year. Problems arose when Interscope changed distribution and Pookie split with Interscope, leaving the album "We Can Do Whatever" unissued - until 2005.
