Background

Her vocals from "Love Sensation" were used in the UK number one hit, "Ride On Time" by Black Box. Holloway, however, was uncredited for her powerful vocals, and both Holloway and her attorneys successfully launched a press-attack, and, subsequently, sued Black Box, leading to an undisclosed court settlement in Holloway's favor. In 1992 she also had a hit with dance band Cappella. There she appeared as Cappella featuring Lolleatta Holloway, of which the single called "Take Me Away" (UK #25). Holloway's fortunes dramatically improved, however, when she had her first US number-one hit when Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch featured her vocals in the chart topping song Good Vibrations (1991). Holloway also performed with Marky Marky and the Funky Bunch to promote to single, and she received full vocal credit and a share of the royalties. Despite the Black Box copyright infringements, both "Ride On Time" and "Good Vibrations" helped elevate Holloway to legendary status in the dance music community.
