The 90s Pyramid of Female Groups RnB Excllence

[DOPEdweebz]

I thought we had more 90s heads in here

 

[playmaker88]

Outside of the allstars and icons i probably only heard of 2 or 3 more groups

 

[NapoleonBlakk]

I'm surprised they didn't mention B.G.O.T.I. since Oobie had some success w/ Lil Jon.

But besides the Icons, the All-Stars and the Hitmakers, I actually remember most of those other groups, back when they had songs on the radio and videos on The Box, FlavaTV, etc. I still have Elusion's album and Allure's first album, which are two of my personal favorites.

I remember Tenderoni being on the Soul Food soundtrack, I don't think they even released an album.

@LONDON!

Sugah was Tweet's group... they were affiliated with Devante Swing, Timbaland and them...

This thread has a little info on them...

Xscape doesn't belong in the icons category.

 

[The Lonious Monk]

Xscape doesn't belong in the icons category.

Surprise to me too, but I guess they do fit the criteria set forth in the graphic.

People talk about how Rap has fallen off since the 90s, but R&B has fallen much further. When you look at those groups and the male groups too, you have to wonder what happened.

 

[SneakDZA]

Yo they gotta swap Destiny's Child & Xscape

 

[The Lonious Monk]

Yo they gotta swap Destiny's Child & Xscape

Nah, remember, they are talking about the 90s. A fair amount of Destiny's Child's success came in the 00s.

 

[SneakDZA]

Yeah I was thinking that was the logic but in my opinion it's a technicality. Either way Xscape gotta come down though. I could see Total up there before them.

 

[SneakDZA]

Damn they couldn't give Zhane an honorable mention?

 

[jee504]

Seeing that list just makes me miss 90s R&B more

 

[The Lonious Monk]

They should do one for male groups too. That what be interesting to see.

What the hell happened to R&B groups anyway? Historically, most R&B acts were groups. Now, all of a sudden, there are none.
