we need the vets who did production work in the nineties to come back--foster/mcelroy produced the good stuff for envogue, jimmy jam and terry lewis for janet jackson, etc.

boys to men were a bit whiny and seemed like they were the boy group for the preppie. upper class type. I liked them but not a lot. they performed on tyra's show and werer pretty good

No.

No more track-makers

This is a funny topic because just the other day when I was getting off the bus some guy (I wanna say crackhead) but I don't know that wouldnt be right, much funnier though) asked me if I wanted to buy "the new Boys 2 man" and I had to control myself from laughing.

It will never fail to amaze me how a bunch of people (read: Orgers) who have had zero success in the music business come and talk shit about someone who did.

And I'm not just talking about BIIM. Hell, just about everybody.

I did give the V3 album a listen and you're soooo right. They just didn't sound the same without her. But that was over 10 years ago.

They got old, boring, stopped making hits. It's all about surface now. See American Idol and reinvent the cringe.

You can also ask, where did Sisters With Voices go?

The manly one decided that completing gender reassignment and being happily married was more important than chasing mainstream success that they'd never have.

The bug-eyed chubby one probably got knocked up by some drug dealer or shacked up with a random WNBA lesbian to pay the rent since the SWV ship was sinking and they had no publishing or anything like that coming in or any possible acting roles.

The one with the sharp teeth and the ghetto claws is probably somewhere doing porn, stripping, shoplifting, and singing in her local church choir in addition to taking care of all her kids by various locked up drug dealers.

I could be wrong though.

Who cares?

dseann said:

Wait, let me get this straight. You DON'T think "I Get So Weak" and "Downtown" are classics?


What kind of person are you?

Dance said:

I liked the remix to.....you know.....what's the name.....the human nature remix of.....well.....help me out here.

What ever happened to that one guy who sang "Rico Suave"?

Illustrator said:

The what that sang who?

Okay okay...
he actually didn't sing it,
but that's beside the point.

dseann said:

Well, that was also their album without Foster and McElroy. I thought it was pretty good (if uneven). "Don't Let Go (Love)" might just be their best song.

dseann, you're talking about "Right Here" by SWV that has the Human Nature Mix.

Illustrator, Gerardo sang "Rico Suave."

Don't Let Go was the only song on the album featuring all 4 of 'em.
I know the SWV song. Dance and I are just goofing off.

dseann said:

Oh, OK. BTW, I liked other songs besides that one.

dseann said:

Save it.

If you can't see the brilliance of a New Jack shit song about eating peesh, I don't know WHAT to do with you.

Dance said:

Despite the phenomenal success destiny's child has had(beyonce's child) ,
they collectively couldn't hold a candle to envogue. Each member of envogue
bought something to the table vocally where as beyonce basically carried destiny's child. Kelly Rowland can sing a little but she will always be the
mary wilson of destiny's child.
EnVogue was basically the victim of transformation. When dawn left the public
didn't want to accept a pared down lineup of envogue just like the public would
not accept guy without teddy riley. When destiny's child went through personnel changes, they basically had a different audience listening than what envogue had and destiny still had the straw that stirred the drink in beyonce.

Okay the thread title has me dying for some reason

Beautiful voices.it´s a shame, they don´t sing anymore.

Dance said:

I disagree with all of this.

Dance said:

Now, now ,now.....I have no aversions to eating peesh, in fact I enjoy eating peesh just as much as any other self respecting man(or woman) out there. But can you imagine eating SWV's peesh? I'd probably be fighting cold sores and picking hair out my teeth for a lifetime.

Their first two and a half(Runaway Love) albums still get played in heavy rotation at my house.
