Twenty 4 Seven is a Eurodance and Hip House act, created by Dutch producer Ruud van Rijen in 1989. Other members of the group were rapper Tony Dawson-Harrison (left in 1991), later replaced by Stacey Paton (Stay-C), and female vocalist Nance Coolen, later replaced by Stella. As of 2007 Twenty 4 Seven made a comeback with vocalist Elle.
The combination of male rap and female choruses was the main recipe for their success. The first single, I Can't Stand It, a collaboration with Hanks & Jacks and MC Fixx it which even contained a bit of social criticism, reached #7 on UK charts in 1990. It was followed by another single, Are You Dreaming, and the debut album, Street Moves.
After a dispute with Ruud Van Rijen, Dawson-Harrison left the group and created Captain Hollywood Project, another successful Eurodance act. The project remained dormant until 1993, when Stay-C (born Stacey Paton) joined the group. He played the role of the rapper as well as an additional role of the co-producer. In the late summer of 1993, a new single, Slave to the Music, was launched. It charted well in most European countries, being the first dance record to go platinum in the newly independent Czech Republic.
The following singles, Is It Love and Take Me Away, peaked at #5 in Israel. By now, the group were famous worldwide, with the exception of America and the UK. They even played live in South Africa. The single Leave Me Alone included a Greatest Hits Megamix.
"Slave To The Music" and "Is It Love" were their only hits in Australia, where both songs reached the Top 5 on the Australian music charts.
Although they were contracted until 1996, the group remained largely silent throughout the next two years. Nance then declared that the group had practically split due to personal issues. Stella, an experienced singer, who already toured with Captain Hollywood Project, replaced Nance, who focused on her solo career. During the 1996 summer, both Nance's Big Brother Is Watching You and the Twenty 4 Seven's We Are The World were very popular in the Netherlands.
During 1997, Twenty 4 Seven released two singles, You Want My Love and Friday Night, followed by a new album 24 Hours, 7 Days A Week.
In September 1997 Stella left the group on order to focus on modeling, and for the remaining two years Twenty 4 Seven were the male duo of Van Rijen and Stay-C. They released two singles, If You Want My Love in 1998 and Ne Ne in 1999.
In 2000, plans to release a new album in the classical formula, with Stay-C and Nance, were rumoured in the press, but never eventuated. But in 2007 Twenty 4 Seven made a comeback. The end of october, Twenty 4 Seven featuring Elle -the new singer- released a new single in The Netherlands and Germany. It has been produced by Ruud van Rijen. The single is called Like Flames and is a cover from Berlin's 1986 hit single.Twenty 4 Seven's version is a jumpstyle song. Jumpstyle is a big hype in The Netherlands. On 30 Nov 2007, the singled debut on the Dutch top 100 chart at number 45, and is currently at number 20. It was also announced on the new website that the act will do performances again.
