LISA Maffia looked like she was ageing backwards as she attended the Bob Marley: One Love premiere last night.

It's hard to believe it's been 22 years since So Solid Crew's smash hit single, 21 Seconds, was released.

Noughties garage star Lisa, 44, stunned onlookers while walking the red carpet outside London's BFI IMAX Waterloo.

The singer put on a dazzling display in a sequinned burgundy dress with an asymmetrical ruffled hem.

She wore her brunette locks in a tight bun and accessorised with gold interlocking hoop earrings.

So Solid Crew consisted of a huge line-up, with the most notable being Lisa, MC Harvey, Asher D and Romeo.

In October, 2001, the UK act released their first album, They Don't Know, which performed moderately well on the UK charts.

But it was their breakout single 21 Seconds that would carry the band's major success throughout the year.

The song went platinum within weeks, and it seemed like everything was looking up for the new group.

Their debut album ended up peaking at number six too.

In 2002, So Solid Crew would go on to helm their own Channel 4 documentary called This Is So Solid, which only helped to boost their popularity with the British public.

But when their sophomore album 2nd Verse hit the market in 2003, it landed at number 70 on the UK chart.

It wasn't long before members such as Lisa would attempt to start a solo career away from the group, causing the group to disband.

These days, she runs her own music artists booking agency and has taken part in multiple reality TV shows - incluing Celebrity Coach Trip, The Games and even won ITV2's CelebAir.
