Danity Kane I'm looking at YOU! I listen to "Lemonade" and "All in a Day's Work" pretty much every day at the gym. They get me pumped but I still get sad at what could have been.... *sigh*

HA! DK and En Vogue are never happening.
DC might though - they all still like each other and can work together (e.g. "Say Yes")

I still jam to Off The Hook every now and then. SWV made some cute stuff after they reunited, so I'm sure they can release something comparable. And as far as I know, none of them are saved again, so they can still sing about the same stuff, haha.

Off the Hook is classic. Their one album I use. It'll be interesting to hear how they update their sound.

I think Kandi is leaving Housewives so this is good timing.

Kandi can still write a good song and she's got pretty good visibility from the housewives. Looking forward to hearing what they come up with!

Kandi is better served as a writer and backup singer. She sounds bad on songs more than a few lines.

Yeah, I used to love Kandi's voice, but she sounds like SHIT these days. I haven't heard LaTocha sing in a while, but Tiny and Tamika still serve good vocals.
The gag is one of the many reasons why they broke up is because Kandi wanted to write most of the songs on their last album. I'm sure they'll have no problem with that now, since nobody is going to be knocking down the doors to work with them.
I will be shocked if they fully see their vision for this project out. I'll give it 2 months before they start having the clash of the egos. I am interested in a biopic from them, because they actually had a lot of behind the scenes drama from the beginning, but nobody really knew. But I don't see that playing out well since they all clearly have different takes on their past that no-one wants to agree on.

Meh. New SWV did nothing for me, I don't expect this to be any better.

Off The Hook is their best. It reminds me of the times when JD used to be a good producer.

They had very strong singles, but their albums as a whole were just alright. I can't say I really care one way or another at this point. I'd probably enjoy it if they put out a couple 90's nostalgia songs, but I have no interest whatsoever in them attempting to record contemporary material. SWV had some nice throwbacks on their 2012 album (their most recent is not good).

I think Kandi ruined Xscape for me. I like so many of them old singles but I barely have interest in new material from TLC much less these girls. Some things are best as nostalgia moments for me.

So I revisited a bunch of their music videos last night, and quick question:
Was the "Do You Want To?" video supposed to come out before "Who Can I Run To?"?
The latter contains flashbacks to the former, but as I recall the singles order of Off the Hook it was: "Feels So Good" > "Who Can I Run To?" > "Do You Want To?" > "Can't Hang"

I like them and all, but I don't feel they're deserving of TWO biopics.

I can't believe TV One is acting shady like Lifetime with the unauthorized biopic.

Girls sound great! I wish girl groups would do more live acapella singing like this. I'd pay to see these ladies sing an acapella concert. They're not as great as the Braxtons (who have the benefit of 2 more voices), but still very nice!

The gag is the Scott sisters are probably secretly involved in the "unauthorized" biopic.

I watched a clip of TI and Tiny's show, where Tiny told TI about the reunion, and he basically threatened her if she tried to tour and promote while keeping their newborn at the same time. It'll be interesting to see how his develops. If they end up making up this reunion is off.
