Superchick, originally known as Superchic[k], is an American contemporary Christian band. Their music incorporates various styles such as punk, rock, rap, and R&B.

Superchic[k] made its debut in 1999 at an Audio Adrenaline concert in front of an audience of 5,000. They continued to perform at live events throughout that year, self-releasing their first album in 2000. The album was re-released with three added remix tracks after they signed to Inpop Records, and became their first official album: Karaoke Superstars.
