About

The Mary Jane Girls are an American girl group formed in Los Angeles, California, in 1981. Formed by Rick James, the original lineup comprised JoJo McDuffie, Cheri Wells, Candice Ghant, and Kimberly Wuletich. Known for their on-stage sexual image, the group debuted on Motown's imprint Gordy Records with the release of their Top 10 dance songs "Candy Man" and "All Night Long" from their debut album Mary Jane Girls (1983).

The group achieved their first gold album with Only Four You in 1985. The album's single, "In My House", became their highest-charting single, peaking in the top ten on the US Billboard Hot 100. During the recording of their third album, the group was disbanded after a contractual dispute between Rick James and Gordy Records. The Mary Jane Girls briefly reformed as a trio with McDuffie, Ghant, and Wuletich in 1995, only to disband again in 1997.

In 2010, two spin-off groups featuring original members appeared. Original member Candice Ghant billed her spin-off group as the Mary Jane Girls, which include singers Val Young and Farah Melanson. Original members Cheri Wells and Kimberly Wuletich billed their group as MJG Starring Maxi and Cheri of the Original Mary Jane Girls. The Mary Jane Girls have been inducted into the Rhythm & Blues Music Hall of Fame in 2019.
