Xscape has tried to do things with Kandi replacements in the past and it has gone absolutely nowhere. Kandi is the reason all of this is happening, to be honest.
Like her or not, she's branded herself and made a name for herself, and I'm sure that has helped Xscape get these opportunities because they had some good songs, but they weren't highly successful. They're doing things now that they never got a chance to do in their "prime". This is like Browstone or Zhanr getting a world tour.
