^It upsets me that Soulflower is not on streaming services. I would've kept my hard copy had I known :'( :'(
"Ooh Boy" is still one of my favorite songs ever to this day.

My best friend begged me to knock out an intro this morning on the album for the anniversary: middlechildpromotions.com/mcps-music-monuments-en-vogue-funky-divas/I just can't get over how EVERY SONG STILL KNOCKS!! They really deserved some damn Grammys for this album and it pisses me off all over again how they couldn't keep the reunion together (no shade to my homegirl Rhona whom I adore genuinely as a person aside from an entertainer!)

I got a "like" from Maxine Jones regarding this. lol

Maybe Tamar can join the group and be their new Dawn.

I'm happy to see them doing so well, but its so bittersweet. I wish Maxine and/or Dawn were apart of it.

I was low key hopeful they could somehow reconcile, especially after Cindy did an interview stating their issues were always business-related, never personal, but Maxine just did an interview recently alluding to them still being in litigation so I doubt we'll ever get a proper reunion and album from the original quartet again.

They sound flawless as always, but is it just me or has Cindy been looking weird lately?
EDIT: Also, I'd KILL for them to do "The Schuyler Sisters" from Hamilton. Rhona'd prb be Peggy......

Cindy looks amazing. She is 55 years old...
They really need to let Rhona do Maxine's parts.

En Vogue just released a megamix for the summer, including a new mystery song at the 11:45 mark which I kinda like even more than "Deja Vu" and "I'm Good":

I wonder if they'll re-record it for the new album?
