By 1998, the group expanded with the addition of Ricardo Pinda and Dudu Marote, who participated in productions like "Rebola na Boa," which served as the opening theme for Rede Globo’s soap opera Vila Madalena. Their sophomore album, titled Mr. Jam, featured the prominent song "Shaka Shaka." The band’s third studio effort, Supersônico, was launched in 2001.
