During the partnership of James Harris, III (aka Jimmy Jam) and Terry Lewis, they have earned more than 100 gold, platinum, multi-platinum and diamond albums, and produced 41 Billboard Top 10 songs. This includes 26 number one R&B and 16 number one Hot 100 hit records.

There have been three Flyte Time Studios: the first at 4330 Nicollette Avenue South in Minneapolis from 1982-1988; the second at 4100 W. 76th Street in Edina from 1988-2003; and one in Santa Monica, CA from 2005-2013. The Edina Studo was their creative headquarters longer than any other location.

The Minneapolis studio is where Control (1986) and Rhythm Nation 1814 (1989) were recorded, although post-production for Rhythm Nation occurred in Edina. Janet (1993) and The Velvet Rope (1997) were recorded in the Edina Flyte Tyme Studio - along with countless other smash hit records. Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis were the most sought after and influential production/songwriting duo for the next three decades (1980's, 1990's, and 2000's) - most of which was done at the Edina studio!
