Isyss was an American R&B girl group whose name stood for "Intelligent Sexy Young Soul Sisters". The original members consisted of LeTecia Harrison and her paternal aunt Ardena Clark, Quierra "Qui Qui" Davis-Martin and her friend La'Myia Good (older sister of actress Meagan Good). Ardena Clark removed herself from the group after the release of their debut album. She was replaced by a singer, which her name is only known as "Love".

Music career

As a group they achieved moderate success in 2002 with their debut album The Way We Do, which included the Hot 100 charting singles "Day & Night" (featuring rapper Jadakiss) and "Single For The Rest Of My Life". During their career they performed the theme song to the short lived BET talk show Oh Drama. They were also nominated for two Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards, winning one. They were the spokespersons for the hair care products "Got 2 B So Smooth". They were later dropped from Arista Records, during production of their second album. Ardena Clark left the group during the recording of their planned second album, and was replaced by a new member known only as "Love". Isyss disbanded shortly after this due to creative differences. Their only album The Way We Do reached #55 on the Billboard Charts.

After Isyss

La'Myia Good and "Love" formed an R&B trio called BAD GYRL. Although BAD GYRL released several videos and songs online, no album was released and they eventually broke up. Now La'Myia Good is focusing on her acting career. Quierra Davis-Martin is pursuing a solo music career. LeTecia Harrison (a former model) has a fashion line and is still working on music. Ardena Clark is studying politics and got married in 2011.
