In 1999, their self-titled debut album was released by Trackmasters Entertainment and Columbia Records. A R&B and pop album, with hip hop and teen pop influences,^[1] the album reached number 23 on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and was eventually certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), with domestic sales of more than 1.5 million copies.^[2] Blaque produced two top ten hits on the US Billboard Hot 100, including "808" and "Bring It All to Me."

Blaque's second album Blaque Out was initially expected to be released on December 11, 2001 in United States,^[3] but received a Japan-wide physical release on January 29, 2002 only amid the commercial failure of lead single "Can't Get It Back" and the pregnancy of band member Natina Reed.^[4] It was finally issued as a digital download through iTunes on May 22, 2007.^[5][6] Blaque later transitioned to Elektra Records where they released the single "I'm Good" as part of the soundtrack of the dance film Honey (2003) and began recording of their third album Torch. As with Blaque Out, the album remained unreleased. Following the death of Reed in 2012, remaining members Shamari Fears and Brandi Williams released several standalone singles, including "Summertime Riding" and "Today." In 2019, Fears and Williams eventually released Torch digitally through The Move Entertainment to coincide with the twentieth release anniversary of their self titled debut album.^[7]
