Biography

One Chance, an R&B group of Chicago composed of brothers Jon Gordon (co-founder) and Michael "Mic" Gordon (co-founder) p/k/a The Gordon Brothers, Rob Brent (member), and Courtney Vantrease (member), signed to J Records after being discovered by Grammy-Award-Winning artist Usher.

Usher discovered One Chance during a live showcase, and immediately organized a meeting for the boy band to perform for music legend Clive Davis, Founder of J Records, who signed them on the spot. In 2006, the band released their first single, "Look at Her", which peaked at #53 on the U.S Billboard Hot R&B/ Hip-Hop Songs Chart. In 2008, their second single entitled, “U Can’t” ft. Usher, quickly climbed the U.S Billboard R&B Songs Chart to #73. ^{[1] [2] [3]} Originally a quintet, the band's debut was on the 2005 soundtrack for In the Mix, with the songs "That's My Word" and "Could This Be Love". ^[4] featuring former band member, Terrell Jones Jr., who can be seen in its videos. ^[5]

Originally slated for release in late 2006, their debut album, Private, was repeatedly pushed back and eventually shelved due to the ever-changing executive team at J Records. One Chance later requested to be released from US Records and J Records in 2008.

In June 2009, the band signed to artist T-Pain's Nappy Boy Entertainment, focusing primarily on writing and vocal producing for T-Pain. On September 23, 2010, One Chance released their single, "Sexin' on You", from their mixtape, Ain't No Room For Talkin', and co-wrote T-Pain's single "Reverse Cowgirl".

In 2011 band members Rob Brent and Courtney Vantrease amicably parted ways to pursue solo careers. Their last release as a group was the June 2011 single "Super Dewper", which featured T-Pain and Smoke of Field Mob. ^[6] In 2012 Co-founders and brothers, Jon and Michael "Mic" Gordon, formed the singer-songwriter duo, The Gordon Brothers.
