According to my buddy Bassy, Chris and Kathy are married. Alexis is Chris' sister, thus sister-in-law to Kathy.

Marano and the Phillips did the album Next Generation it was like in '94

Phillips need a few more members like 5 to be the jacksons ( 5 jackson brothers and two sisters )...

Everyone is correct...
But there is a 4th Phillips family member that has done Freestyle as well. Gus (Chris & Alexia's father), has helped co-write and produce music for his children and Chris' other productions on Odeon Records.
BTW - Gus is very proud of his children and he is one hell of a nice guy if you ever get the opportunity to speak with him!

Adam's sister's name is Stephanie Marano, not Stefanie.
The Marano/Phillips concept was almost one of the best in Freestyle: it should have been, and was allegedly supposed to be the brother/sister Philly Freestyle team of Adam & Stephanie Marano from the USA joining forces with the brother/sister Toronto Freestyle team of Chris and Alexia Phillips from Canada. But for some reason, Stephanie Marano never made the trip, or the album.
Aside from the Maranos and the Phillips, there have been other Freestyle families.
Steve “Mr. Miami” O’Neill, and his brothers Mike & Chris are head of the Gecko Records family.
Philly Freestyle vocal group DTU was made up of cousins Anthony Ponzio, Anbthony Santosusso, and Johnny Genovese.
There have been other siblings, cousins, and even marriages in Freestyle.
And what about producers Mickey & Tony Garcia? Weird, huh?
And f.y.i.: The Jackson family has 6 brothers, not 5, and 3 sisters, not 2!
Tito, Marlon, Jermaine, Randy, Michael and Jackie.
Rebbie, LaToya, and Janet.
Plus, to continue in the Jackson family music history, Tito’s sons formed the pop R&B group 3T.
The Beach Boys were made up of brothers Brian, Denis, and Carl Wilson, along with cousin Mike Love, and family friend Al Jardine.
Now apart from Love’s Beach Boys, and Brian Wilson’s solo career, Jardine continues the Beach Boys "family" by performing non stop accompanied by his two sons, and Brian Wilson’s two daughters of Wilson Phillips fame.

I'm not sure if Gus provided any vocals. I'll check some info-out when I get home from the Odeon CDs and let you know.
It looks like we have forgotten my favorite current producers: THE SANTANA TWINS...Other Freestyle siblings include: Face (the original girls that sang FOREVER YOURS and HAPPY DAYS) and The Rios Sisters.
Re: Philly Freestyle artists who "kept it in the family", lol...DuLaio Twins and Ton-De-Jon...

Hey this thread is pretty informative!
Rhoq - I didn't know Gus provided some of the writing to the freestyle tracks in the Planet Freestyle days! Thanks for info!
I loved the Marano/Phillips concept - that was a great Cd. My fave track on that was "How could you love me" .
oh yeah - I noticed that Adam wears his Viper hat backwards. LOL! Must be a trademark of his.
