One Chance is an R&B group based in Chicago, signed to Us Records, the label run by Usher. One Chance made their first music video for the "In the Mix" soundtrack. In the video, Rob is singing to a girl he is trying to win back. Usher also makes an appearance in the video too, but they do not show his face.

Bound by their love of music and their undeniable talent, these four Chicago natives came together three years ago and overcame all the obstacles that littered their road to success. After a few detours and more than a few roadblocks, the guys found themselves face to face with the biggest R&B superstar in the world and, much to their delight, he liked what he saw. "Two years ago we got the opportunity to showcase for Usher," Jon recalls. "He could tell that we were already polished. We had been working so hard for so long and it must have shown on stage because we were chosen by Usher over several other acts who showcased for him and his staff that day."

Usher signed One Chance to his label, US Records, and began the diligent task of developing them as only Usher can do. The multi-platinum, Grammy-winning artist said he saw reflections of himself in the group. "As an artist, I know what it takes to be successful," Usher says. "I know what it takes to make a mark and have longevity. As a label owner, I want my artists to possess those same qualities. One Chance does. I have no doubt that these guys have what it takes to not only live up to the great R&B legends of the past, but to have the same kind of respect and longevity that many of those greats still enjoy today." There's no question that One Chance in next in a long lineage of great R&B male groups. "We got a mean swagger," says 21-year-old Courtney Vantrease, describing the group's uniqueness.
