3 of a Kind was a UK garage ensemble, primarily recognized for their 2004 chart-topping single, "Baby Cakes". The group consisted of Liana Caruana (known as Miz Tipzta), Nicholas Gallante (MC Devine), and Marc Portelli. Interestingly, Marc and Liana first crossed paths on the very day they recorded "Baby Cakes".
2004: Release of "Baby Cakes"
Upon its release, "Baby Cakes" entered the UK Singles Chart at number one and secured the third position on the Irish Singles Chart. Additionally, it appeared on the Eurochart Hot 100 at number 91 and gained chart placements in Belgium, France, the Netherlands, and Sweden.
Post-"Baby Cakes" Activities
Following their hit, 3 of a Kind did not issue any further singles, which led to their classification as UK one-hit wonders. A planned follow-up track titled "Wink One Eye" was scheduled but ultimately pulled from release and never made available to the public.
In November 2014, Nicholas Gallante featured on the television program Never Mind the Buzzcocks during the "Identity Parade" segment, where he disclosed his transition into a profession as a party planner.
