My first exposure to The Jets was through Square One Television, where they sang a song about prime numbers.

That’s what happens to some good gullible people. They were focused on their careers and not money. They should have each been millionaires very easily and lived quite a comfortable life but their manager took advantage of their naive and trusting nature. They were as clean and pure as can be too. No drugs, sex, alcohol or partying. It was all about work and staying with their strong Christian beliefs.

[@Lovejazz01]

I was always a fan of the Jets, and I wasn’t a kid or a teenager in the 80’s, I was in my 20’s. I always hoped that they would all be more and more famous and powerful, having not only many hits but a production company, a studio, producing songs for other artists, TV commercial appearances and jingles, tv and movie appearances, and different siblings having solo albums. That’s what should have happened if their manager wasn’t making his own pockets fat. So when it came to changes in music and lifestyles they would all have survived the 90’s and beyond ok. The music industry is great when everything is going your way and artists and managers and record companies are all making money. But more and more artists unfortunately ended up like the Wolfgramns , and I’m glad younger artists today are more independent and smarter when it comes to their careers and contracts . Right now I’m just glad that the family is doing alright living their lives.

[@Artois2011]

Make It Real was pretty popular during my boarding school days. I remember singing "🎶Tonight...It's been a year...We met each other here...🎵" a year after a guy dumped me. Rocket 2 U was my jam - They really should have won the Grammy for that song.

[@djstonedog]

In Australia, the only song of theirs that made a slight dent Down Under was Rocket 2 U which gained some (but more acurately miniscle) airplay on some of the Saturday music video TV shows (Video Hits on Channel 10 and Rage on the ABC). That was the first and only time I'd heard of them. I was following the charts, radio shows and music television programs like a hawk back in those days so pretty sure that song was their only exposure us Aussies got to them. Rocket 2 U peaked at a paltry #93 on the Australia ARIA charts, so most Aussies likely would not even be familiar with them, which is sad because they're great

The Jets could have easily transitioned into the NJS sound. They were still young and with all of those producers at that time who were currently available, management should have reached out to them. But, management and MCA Records let them down.
