3T made a vow to help raise their uncle Michael Jackson's children after he died.
The three band members Taj Jackson, Taryll Jackson and TJ Jackson are Michael's nephews and after his shock passing in June 2009 they all told their grandmother Katherine Jackson they would always be there for his kids, Prince Michael, 16, Paris, 15, and 11-year-old Blanket.
During an appearance on UK TV show 'Lorraine', TJ said: "Since my uncle passed - we lost our mother at young ages too - and that's a very hard thing to get over so when my uncle passed, my brothers and I, we told our grandmother we'll be there for her and do everything we can to help her and the kids. It's been hard, it's been tough, this is why it's taken us so long to come out [into the spotlight again] as well because our focus has been them, to make sure they're back on track and adjusting as best as they can. They're doing really well ... it's a hard position they're in but they're doing well."
3T - whose father is Michael's brother Tito - are currently featuring on TV show 'The Big Reunion', which shows them making a new bid for pop success.
The 'Anything' hitmakers are delighted to have been given another opportunity to perform together again.
Tarryll said: "It was just more politics and things that prevented us to continue our career ... A lot has happened since the last time we were on stage."
TJ - who is co-guardian to Michael's children - said: "Things in life got in the way so we went back to make sure our lives were in order before we continued our career."

Leonardo DiCaprio wants to star in a stage play.
The 39-year-old actor - who was catapulted to the spotlight in 1997's 'Titanic' - has his sights set on performing in theatres after enjoying a film career spanning two decades, and is already looking at scripts for both classic and new productions.
He told Daily Mail newspaper: "I have thought about theatre on and off over they years but other things keep getting in the way. Maybe now's the time."
Leonardo has been nominated for a number of awards for his work over the past year - including an Academy Award for Best Actor for his portrayal of corrupt stockbroker Jordan Belfort in 'The Wolf Of Wall Street' - but he wants to wait until after awards season before he explores theatre work further.
He explained: "I'm going to get all of this - the awards and travelling - over with and maybe, just maybe, there will be a play. I've actually been looking at a bunch plays and stuff. I would love to do it."
Bernard Hiller - an acting teacher who has given top Hollywood stars acting master classes in Los Angeles - approves of the idea, and thinks Leo would be great for theatre.

Snooki is having a 'Great Gatsby'-themed wedding.
The reality TV star - real name Nicole Polizzi - is getting ready to tie the knot with her fiancé Jionni LaValle and has chosen the theme for her nuptials, which will be based around the F. Scott Fitzgerald novel set in the roaring 20s - which was recently turned into a film by Baz Luhrmann.
She told In Touch Weekly magazine: "It's a 'Great Gatsby' theme, with black and gold."
Snooki - who has a 15-month-old son Lorenzo with Jionni - has already picked her wedding gown and party dress for the reception and neither outfit is influenced by her 'Jersey Shore' style.
She revealed: "I got my dresses. Everyone expects me to wear glitter and leopard [print] and I'm like, 'Maybe, if I got married four years ago'. I got an elegant ballgown for the church, and a mermaid style dress with a poufy train for the reception."
Although she wants her big day to be special, Snooki is not going to spend a fortune on her wedding and is going to cut costs where she can.
She said: "I don't have a wedding planner. I'm trying to save money - I'm so cheap! Plus, I don't like people telling me what to do."

Niall Horan got trapped in a lift and had his crutches stolen at a BRITs after-party.
The One Direction hunk - who suffers from claustrophobia - was left in a panic when he got stuck in a cramped lift for the second time in three months at the Sony Belvedere bash, at Mayfair's Arts Club, in London on Wednesday night (19.02.14).
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Niall was with his security heading up to the party when the lift stalled for nearly five minutes.
"He was quite scared. One guy in the lift tried to film him and Niall asked his minders to ask him to delete the video."
The 20-year-old singer found himself in a similar situation last December when he suffered a panic attack after being caught inside a broken down lift in a hotel in Milan, Italy, along with a group of young adoring fans.
The Irish star recently turned to self-help books in a bid to help him combat his claustrophobia and panic attacks.
Meanwhile, Niall - who recently underwent an operation on his knee - was struck with even more bad luck at the party as someone swiped his crutches, but they were later handed back in to reception.
One Direction - consisting of Niall, Harry Styles, 20, Louis Tomlinson, 22, Zayn Malik, 21, and Liam Payne, 20 - triumphed at the award ceremony, held at London's O2 Arena, on Monday after picking up the Global Success title and accolade for Best Video, which was voted for by fans on the night.

Boy George claims he heard people doing drugs at the BRIT Awards on Wednesday (19.02.14).
The 52-year-old singer - who has suffered with heroin addiction in the past - has implied the ceremony, held at London's O2 Arena, was a cocaine-fuelled event as he insists there was a "chorus of snorting" from the toilets during the commercial breaks.
Taking to his Twitter account yesterday afternoon (20.02.14), he wrote: "As I took a leak at The Brit's I could hear a chorus of snorting! We have always called the Ad breaks 'the coke run'. It's still the case! (sic)".
Meanwhile, the Culture Club star caused a stir when he arrived at the glamorous event on Wednesday sporting a bloody bruise across his left eye, which looked like he had been involved in a punch-up.
However, George - whose real name is George Alan O'Dowd - admitted on the red carpet that it was actually make-up and he opted for the bizarre look as he is a "self-confessed fashion victim".
The eye make-up was branded "inappropriate" by critics, but George has since defended his theatrical taste.
He wrote: "Tasteless? Yet worth a whole lot of comment! ?? (sic)".

Madonna is still working out despite injuring her foot.
The 55-year-old singer bruised a bone while dancing in high heels last month but hasn't let it slow her down when it comes to keeping fit.
A source told New York Post's Page Six the pop superstar has been to SoulCycle in the city and the Hamptons because it's "one of the few workouts she can do while hurt".
Madonna led a class with her trainer, Nicole Winhoffer, at the opening of her Hard Candy studio in Toronto, and posted a photograph of herself exhausted after working out on Instagram.
It was accompanied by the caption: "Harder is Better! Post work out! Foot in the Ice Bath. A girl has to make a living! #hardcandytoronto #addictedtosweat. (sic)"
She appeared at the Grammys with a cane and was also photographed hobbling around Beverley Hills after a skiing holiday in January in Gstaad in Switzerland.
Her spokesperson said at the time: ''She bruised a bone in her foot from dancing in her high heels ... she'll be fine and off crutches in a week."
She's not the only star to have trouble in heels, as Kelly Osbourne has previously said she falls over a lot when she wears towering footwear.
She said: ''I'm double-jointed everywhere, I think that's why I'm so accident prone. Tight jeans and high heels equals one of my hips popping out and my face on the floor.''

Fergie and Josh Duhamel went to watch Britney Spears' Las Vegas residency.
The 38-year-old singer and her hunky actor husband went to see the 'Perfume' hitmaker at one of her shows at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino earlier this week, where they were joined by model Daniel Garofali, William Derella and Sean Patterson.
Fergie wrote on Twitter: "Ms Brit #youdrivemecrazy (sic)"
The Black Eyed Peas star also attached an image of the Britney who was on stage, wearing a black mesh leotard accesorised with sequins, with her hands on her hips while she was surrounded by dancers.
Fergie later added: "About last night... #britneyshow #workbitch (sic)", with a picture of her and her pals posing for the shot.
She's not been the only star to go and see Britney's 'Piece of Me' show.
Nicole Richie was "crawling on all fours" at the show on Tuesday night (18.02.14) and the pop star later thanked the 32-year-old beauty.
Britney wrote: "Can we all give a round of applause to @NicoleRichie for playing along in the show tonight? U looked hot crawling on all fours ;). (sic)"

Simon Cowell's newborn son has inherited his hair.
The media mogul welcomed his first child, with girlfriend Lauren Silverman, last week and friend, 'Strictly Come Dancing' judge Bruno Tonioli, has revealed the youngster has a thick head of black hair like his dad.
The 58-year-old dancing expert thinks the child - who was named Eric after Simon's father - will have such luscious locks that he could even land himself a role in a shampoo advert when he's older.
Bruno said: "That baby will not be follically challenged. It might even get a L'Oreal advert or two. Simon has great hair. In his 20s he had fantastic looks."
Bruno - who's been friends with 'The X Factor' judge for 30 years - hopes Simon won't influence his son's future haircuts, and make him get his infamous square style which is regularly mocked by his pals including comedian David Walliams and 'X Factor' USA judge Demi Lovato.
He told The Sun newspaper: "It's his haircut - he can't give that haircut to a child!"
Simon - whose hair has just started to grey - took Eric to a business meeting this week and the proud dad has been showing off his newborn to all his friends, family and colleagues.
A source said: "Baby Eric came along two weeks early so Simon still had meetings he was going to attend.
"As the birth went relatively smoothly, he decided to keep the appointments and asked Lauren to bring him along to him show off."

Miley Cyrus has hit back at critics who have called for her 'Bangerz Tour' to be cancelled.
The 21-year-old singer kicked off her raunchy world tour in Vancouver, Canada, last week and has come under fire for antics such as simulating a sex act on a man wearing a Bill Clinton mask, but Miley insists she gave fans a pre-warning her shows would be X-rated.
She wrote on Twitter yesterday (20.02.14): "You can't say I didn't warn you. Now sit back relax & enjoy the show. #bangerztour (sic)"
The tweet was accompanied by a picture of Miley on stage in a revealing outfit exposing her butt.
The 'Wrecking Ball' hitmaker then blasted her critics by telling them to "save" their outrage.
She quipped: "Save your complaints for the McDonalds drive thru when they forget the 'fries with that' (sic)"
Earlier this week, it was claimed the star's management has been "flooded" with complaints due to the salacious nature of the stage show.
A source said: "Miley's management have been flooded with complaints, mainly from parents, since her tour began last week in Canada with calls for the entire tour to be axed.
"Her team, including management, record label execs and the entire tour staff including the director, costume department and choreographers have been called for an emergency meeting as arenas across the US threaten to pull out of the show."
However, concert promoters Live Nation insisted last night there have been no issues with the tour and Miley will continue to perform in arenas across the globe.
A spokesperson told MailOnline: "There is no truth whatsoever to any stories or rumors of venues pulling out of the 'Bangerz Tour'.
"Miley has created a tour that's big, spectacular, entertaining and everything you would expect from Miley Cyrus. Reviews have been amazing and most important, fans are loving the show and having a great time."
