They had success with Dane Bowers on "Buggin", which peaked at number six on the UK Singles Chart in April 2000.[1][2]
Their biggest selling record came in August 2000, when True Steppers collaborated with Dane Bowers and Victoria Beckham on "Out of Your Mind". There was a wave of publicity for this single and Victoria involved her husband, David Beckham, for the in-store record signings. There was a chart battle with Spiller and Sophie Ellis-Bextor, whose summer dance track "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)" was released in the same week. True Steppers were leading in the midweek published chart, but Spiller and Ellis-Bextor had overtaken them by Saturday. Spiller was announced as No. 1 on the Sunday, with True Steppers at No. 2.[1][3] They later released another single, this time with the former East 17 singer Brian Harvey and American R&B singer Donell Jones, called "True Step Tonight" which reached number 25,[1] and an album named True Stepping.
