Total, Dream or Danity Kane?

Who was the better female group from the Bad Boy roster?

Can't U See is better than anything those other groups can even dream of making.

Biggie's opening verse alone makes it classic status.

I can't even think of any of the songs from Dream or Danity Kane.

JERKIN' EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!!!!!

I liked some of Total's stuff, that What About Us track with Missy was hot, still is.

know nothing from the Danity chicks, and only He Loves Me Not from Dream, which is still a total guilty pleasure of mine.

lol None of them hookers. Sure "Total" had some hits, songs that take me back to my high school freshman days, but them broads couldn't sing a lick. They always reminded me of screeching cats. evillol

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

For nostalgic reasons, Total had something Dream and definitely Danity Kane never had but yeah I can see why you would say that. lol Puffy only signed them for the sex appeal but he didn't fully promote them as they were dropped around 2000 or so.

Total for the song Kissing You alone. Total just had songs that had more of an impact. For instance Can't You See, No One Else, Don't Forget About Us. Ralpael Saadiq produced two of their hits.

All the groups Total, Dream and Danity Kane were fabricated. Dream was fabricated so Puffy could take advantage of the boy band/ girl band pop craze of the early 2000's. Danity Kane was fabricated because he thought that if he introduced a group's growth and formation on TV fans would follow in sales and line Puffy's pockets. Total was formed more so because he felt he needed a girl group at his label at the time.

Right. Total had the strong productions. I mean the Hitmen did great on "Can't You See" and "No One Else" (that remix with Kim, Brat and Fox still kicks ass after 15 years), then as you said, you have Saadiq on "Kissing You" and "Don't Forget About Us" and later on Miss E. bringing them "Trippin'" and "What About Us". They may have not been great singers but you can't deny they had strong ass songs!

My vote goes to Dream. At least they once had potential!

And BTW, let get the facts straight right now. Dream was NOT a girl band that Sean Combs put together. Dream were already a girl band that was put together by an independent management company long before any of these girls were signed to Bad Boy Entertainment. And surprisely, it was the flaws within Dream's own management that was responsible for the group to break up, hence why they lasted only one album.

I love Total, used to have their first album, and thought the girl in the middle looked like Prince...my grandma agreed then.

I only care for He Loves Me Not and Damaged from the other two groups

Yeah, Total couldn't sing but they had jams back in the day. Dream had no impact whatsoever.

I always thought that it was too bad Diddy sabotaged Danity Kane. They had the potential to be huge.
