Salt n Pepa adopted the rap genre when it was still considered as fad and all of the record labels were hesitant in signing artists up for it. When the band released its first single, it was named as "Super Nature". Sandra and Cheryl made their debut with the song ‘The Showstopper’ in 1985. The final version of it was a hit and gained a lot of airplay on New York City radio programs. After its official release, it became among the modest R&B hits of the day. After its success, the name of the band was changed to Salt n Pepa.

Salt n Pepa signed to Next Plateau Records and started recording their debut studio album. The album titled "Hot, Cool & Vicious" was released in 1986. Some of the songs from the album turned out to be moderate hits of R&B, such as Chick on the Side and Tramp. When B-Side of Tramp was released, it turned out to be the band’s very first major hit. The song Push It was certified Platinum in the United States. The album won a Grammy nomination. The same year, Salt n Pepa became the first female rap band to have been certified gold. It managed to sell 1.3 million copies across the globe.

Salt n Pepa’s second album by the name of "A Salt with a Deadly Pepa" was released in 1988. It featured yet another R&B hit by the name of Shake Your Thang. Twist and Shout became major hit within the United Kingdom, making it to top spots in UK charts. It managed to sell around 80,000 copies across the globe, around 600,000 of them being within the United States, also finally getting the gold certification. Hence, the group managed to release two successful albums back to back.

Salt n Pepa came up with "Black Magic" in 1990. The album consisted of six tracks. It featured the band’s number one song ‘Expression’, which remained on the top spot for eight straight weeks. After it was certified Gold, it was included in the Hot 100 list. The album managed to sell more than 1.5 million copies across the globe. It was followed by the band’s Greatest Hits collection by the name "A Blitz of Salt n Pepa Hits". After a number of successful releases, the group disbanded in March of 1999, after which some of the members decided to go solo.

Salt n Pepa reunited in 2004 in Hip Hope Honors. It was followed by the band’s first concert after disbanding, which took place in Hawaii in 2009. The band continues to occasionally perform live together, much to the joy of the fans. Known as the "Rock Goddesses of the 70s and 80s", it is among the most celebrated all-female bands of its time. Recently the band has embarked on a twenty five city tour and will be making a stop in your town as well.
