Before breaking the mainstream market, So-Solid were involved with many London pirate radio stations, one was Supreme FM, and the main station they performed on was Delight FM (103.0 MHz), where they once had most of the sunday schedule, called So-Solid Sundays. From about lunchtime until 10pm, there were different shows, where the various So-Solid DJs will play dubstep and 2 step garage tracks, and sometimes, the So-Solid MCs would rap on top of the tracks for up to two hours each session. At the height of their career, Delight FM had over 10,000 listeners, a very large number for a pirate station. On Christmas Day in 2001, So-Solid performed their last Sunday show on the station.
So Solid Crew set the trend on the underground scene and even today their success has been unmatched by any other garage crews or collectives. The So Solid Crew's first album They Don't Know was released in October 2001, followed by a remix album entitled Fuck It in December 2001.
So Solid Crew are famous also for having many members. They have all brought out solo chart singles since.
Oxide & Neutrino are also members who brought out singles but they released them before So Solid Crew. They released an album entitled Execute and the singles "Only Wanna Know U Cos Ure Famous / Dem Girlz", "Up Middle Finger" and "Bound 4 Da Reload" (which features music from the Casualty television show).
Members Harvey, MC Romeo, and Lisa Maffia have all appeared on Channel Four celebrity reality show The Games and members Megaman, G Man, Harvey. Harvey has now become a footballer at non-league football club Lewes F.C., following a brief stint at Wimbledon. Harvey has also secured a role in a west end musical.
An associate of the band, Carl Morgan, was sentenced to life imprisonment for murder in October 2005. On 28th September 2006 Megaman was found not guilty of murder at the Old Bailey.
Member Swiss released 'Cry' featuring Sharifa with a ground-breaking Burning Vision Entertainment video populated with rich imagery contained within ever moving polaroids in the background. The video, found here, went straight to number 1 in November 2005 on popular music video station, Channel U.

(whisper: Swiss, Harv. So, Solid. x2)
So solid, big...
I'm gonna bust, you're gonna rhyme,
I'm gonna bust, you're gonna rhyme,
I'm gonna bust, you're gonna rhyme,
So solid crew (bang) for fun. x2
(whisper: Swiss, Harv. So, Solid. x2)
VERSE 1: (HARVEY)
Your friends close, and your enemies closer,
I'm gonna give you a lyrical dose-a,
I'm the real, I'm a lyrical loaner, loaner, upon the microphone-a,
And to the game, this one to the raver,
And to the fuck, 'til the party blaze-a,
And to the mic my lyric will save ya, break ya, hater. Yo...
my rhythm, my rhythm, my rhythm, my rhythm, my rhythm, my rhythm, my flow.
When I'm on a high, when I'm on a low,
When I wanna break, when I wanna on a roll. x2
Recognise that I'm making my dough, so
certain niggas wanna know the way I roll.
The way I roll is strictly to lose control,
until the gold diggers, no-it's a no go.
Until the real niggas, so solid-hype so,
Until the haters watch out your hate.
Yo, blow, another nigga, I wanna get cold,
I'm gonna flip, I'm gonna flip into flip mode.
I'm gonna blow, you know I'm gonna explode,
So solid crew on the road- oh no
I'm gonna make your body reeling,
oh with the lyrical feeling,
wake up, never dreaming,
a few Gs and we're gleaming,
And with the MC others and the ravers believe in.
I'm a dum-a-dum-a demon,
I'm a reason, up with the raving season.
BRIDGE: (KAISH)
Jot that- I really wanna hit that,
Harvey's coming back with another chat.
My folks can't test that, test that,
But his rogues can wreck that, wreck that.
DJ Swiss come with production,
beats soundbeats lying in erruption.
Give Kaish for all interaction,
we come with a ruff neck action.
CHORUS:
Why, you wanna fuck with us?
Say, why, why, why, why you wanna fuck with us?
E stands for envious,
Say why, why, why, why you wanna fuck with us?
VERSE 2: (HARVEY)
Certain things on my chest,
certain things I need to confess,
certain things I need to address,
gonna make money, so I gotta invest.
Now I'm gonna put certain niggas to rest,
If I kill you, then my life's a mess,
give me the mic, and let me do what's best,
express my mental stress.
When I'm on the mic, hype-no contest,
give me mic,
and let me ride-I'm blessed. x4
Why? wouldn't wanna fuck with us?
Why? wouldn't wanna fuck with us?
Why? wouldn't wanna fuck with us?
E stands for envious.
Why? wouldn't wanna fuck with me?
Why? wouldn't wanna fuck with me?
Why? wouldn't wanna fuck with me?
