The band released only one album. Most of the tracks were recorded by Prince way before the band was assembled, with the help of Dez Dickerson. Vanity 6 had minor impact on charts, albeit efforts to broadcast the music, many radio programmers were reluctant to air the explicit sexuality in the band's songs. 4 singles were issued from Vanity 6, among them only Nasty Girl got significant success, mostly in clubs. The band performed vocals on The Time song The Walk on What Time Is It?. Although a second album was planned, the project materialized under the moniker of Apollonia 6 when Denise Matthews left the band. After leaving the Prince camp Vanity pursued an actress carrier and recorded 2 albums under her stage name. Brenda Bennett stayed in the new formed band, Apollonia 6 along with Susan Moonsie.
