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 MC s 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 '' It'' in December 2001. So Solid Crew are famous also for having many members (see 'Members' below). 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, Romeo, and Lisa Maffia have all appeared on Channel Four celebrity reality show '' The Games '' and members Megaman, G Man, Harvey, Romeo and Lisa Maffia have all appeared on BBC's musical gameshow '' Never Mind The Buzzcocks ''.
