Ua kapa ʻia ka hui ʻo The Primettes, me Florence Ballard, Mary Wilson, Betty Makglone a me Diana Ross i mau lālā. I ka makahiki 1960, ua pani ʻo McGlone iā Barbara Martin, a i ka makahiki 1961 ua pūlima ka hui me ka hui moʻolelo Motown a ua kapa ʻia ʻo The Supremes. .

Ua hoʻokuʻu ka hui i ʻelima mau mele ma mua o 1 makahiki wale nō, me Baby Love, Stop! Ma ka inoa o ke aloha, e hele mai e ike ia'u a e hoi hou ma ko'u mau lima.
ʻO ka hopena nui no The Supremes i hiki mai i ka hopena o 1967 i ka wā i haʻalele ai ʻo Holland-Dozier-Holland iā Motown e hana i kā lākou inoa Invictus.

Ma hope ua hoʻomau ka huakaʻi Return to Love e like me ka mea i hoʻolālā ʻia, akā ua hui pū ʻia ʻo Ross e Sherri Payne lāua ʻo Linda Lawrence.
Ua hōʻeha ka lehulehu a me ka poʻe mele mele i ka laina a me nā kumukūʻai kiʻekiʻe. ʻO ka hopena, ʻaʻole i holomua ka huakaʻi.
