Before releasing their debut studio album, the group recorded under the name M.V.P. and released the 1988 EP "The Kings Men". Over the course of their career, The Click released three studio albums.

Although the members continued collaborating on various solo projects over the years, the group’s only official reunion effort came in 2018 with Connected and Respected, a joint album by E-40 and B-Legit that featured the full group on the track "Blame It".
