Not to bring them into this but, that’s why Destiny’s Child (as a trio) worked so well: they can sing any part. And yes, that’s EXACTLY why her voice has so much color and in my opinion, she is the STRONGEST singer of the group, with Cind right behind her. They NEVER lack when they sing live.

[@wetchocolate69able]

I wish that 33 years later now, Dawn, Maxine, Terry, and Cindy could watch this video. Just to see how cool, unfiltered and unadulterated they were. Four women of color, from different backgrounds, with EPIC talent in their own right, successful in their own right, schooling Gen X and Millenial folks at this LEVEL. These four women defined my identity as a Negro. They sang without hesitation, in sync and key!! Modulating to different keys, in BLOODY ACAPELLA effortlessly!! To think, that Terry and Cindy are stumbling blocks to a 30+ year reunion out of pettiness breaks my heart. LISTEN: Rhona is a nice singer. She's in the group. She identifies as En Vogue. I accept that. However, IMHO, she needs to bloody stay in her lane and not act like she entertained and made me HAPPY in 1989!!!! *This is when I would go into a rant in Swahili because it just sounds better when you curse someone out in vernacular!!*

[@CuirPhotodotNet]

...Cindy ...is the one i notice most...she has the razor sharp moves and she seems to be the most poised and dynamic at the same time...Terry is the most relaxed...and the funniest...

[@iKETOURAGE]

Probably because she was the actual dancer of the group. It seemed like she naturally had the beat. As of the other girls, you can tell they are counting in their heads.

It's really sad that they were Unsung. This group had the potential to be so much bigger. From what I've read, they never even really got paid like superstars. That's why Max kept mentioning money, money, money I some way maybe she was confused to why their pay was so low and after all the work they put in.

This is one one of the hundreds of examples of why I love the music but I hate the music business.

People say say “ that’s just the music business “ but you fuck with peoples lives promising millions and superstardom but don’t hold up your end of the deal vs al, the artist hard work. Dawn Robinson has been very vocal lately finally talking about what happened after all these years. While it’s great to see Cindy, and Terry go on with En Vogue with Rhona Bennett it’s strange to see two ladies as talented as Dawn and Maxine not doing ANYTHING as far as touring, singing, recording , solo or working together. It’s as if they have been blackballed all these years. And while I still loved the new En Vogue music from the last four albums I still don’t look at them the same as the original four.
