The Girls

I was looking through an old issue of Rock & Soul (2/85) and came across an article about this group. I forgot all about them! Anyone else remember The Girls?

I remember that article!! Those girls were talking alot of shit in the interview...

"Unlike Vanity,I mean Apollonia 6,we can sing.And although we also sing about sex,we do it with more style and class than they do.We don't have to come out in neglicees or our underwear to get an audience excited".

LOL...the article was intending to pit Prince and Andre against each other,with Andre challenging Prince's girl group with a group of his own.Unfortunately,The Girls never had a hit record and quickly faded from view.

The girl in the left looks like Vivica A. Fox

Anyway, do you know that this "The Girls" thang was in the making since 79. Prince stole the Vanity 6 idea from Andre according to the DMSR book.

More proof that Prince did the sexy girl funk group better than anyone - including Andre, Morris Day, and Rick James
