Roberts and Shepherd started their careers in R & D; B and hip hop group Big Brovaz, which was a huge success after their launch in 2002. Roberts was a well-established singer before the group's success, recording solo album - Look Inside and single "2nd Best". The album was widely praised and won the MOBO Award. After scoring the top five hits with songs like "Favorite Things" and "Nu Flow", Big Brovaz received warm welcome from fans and critics for their unique style, and received comparisons with other groups such as Outkast and solo artists like Eminem, Nelly and Jamelia. After a long hiatus after one member drug addiction was revealed, Big Brovaz again inaugurated their career in 2004 with their new single "Yours Fatally". Expectations were high after they had previously hit the top ten hits, although the single was disappointed at number 15 on the UK Singles Chart and third female member Dionne left the band. Subsequently, the band was dropped by their record label. In April 2007, the third album, Re-Entry , was released, though it failed to map.
Booty Luv was created during the initial recording of Re-Entry , when music executives offered Roberts and Shepherd the opportunity to record and promote a new version of R & B/soul Tweet club hit "Boogie 2nite" with normal version and remixed version of DJ. Following the poor sales of the initial single from Re-Entry in mid-2006, the girls accepted the offer and began recording their new version of the song, initially only as a promotional track for Hed Kandi's record label. Six months later in December, however, Booty Luv's version of "Boogie 2nite" was decided to be released as an actual single in the UK and mainland Europe following a positive review of the DJ club at the dance venue.
