J-Ride: DrumsLittle-T and One Track Mike (sometimes Little T & One Track Mike) are a
hip-hop duo from New Jersey, USA. They are mostly remembered for their only hit Shaniqua, which had been popular onMTV in 2001.History
Timothy Sullivan, now Fite, (Little-T, who was given this name by his brother) and Michael Flannery (One Track Mike who was dubbed this by Little T in a car ride to after the completion of their first demo) met in college while attending
Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey in 1998. They wrote some songs and already were popular among people in school and shows before, at one show, the MTVLyricist Lounge Show decided to help them out, and introduced them to Lava Records who quickly signed them.The duo went on to tour for two years with such acts as
Outkast ,Blink 182 ,Green Day ,Ben Kweller ,My Morning Jacket along with many others. The second single was set to be "Wings". The band had chosen the song because it reflected who they were a lot more than the previous single, which showed them to be just another "white rap act".In 2002 they were featured on the "Scooby Doo" soundtrack, and that was the end of their known career together. Since then, Little-T has been signed to ANTI- Records under the name
Tim Fite . One Track Mike still produces music from his project studio in Central Maine.Discography
