She scored four chart hits from her debut "I Got da Feelin'" (#48/R&B, #31 UK Singles Chart), "On the Smooth Tip" (#36/R&B) and "Why Did It Have to Be Me". In the UK the single "It's Like That Y'All" peaked in the top forty.

I Got da Feelin' formed the basis of a piano based House anthem by UK based act Tin Tin Out who sampled/used Sweet Tee's lyrics in their track The Feeling which reached #32 in the UK Singles Chart.
