fck that. youre already coined up. make music because you love it not because youre worried about flopping. its not like her voice is worth an estate anyway. Chile... just move.

Flopping is an R&B thing
Not sure why or how that matters if ur heart is in the music
R&B is just not the "IT" thing right now.. if youre a true artist and youre not struggling for money, why would you let that stop you from releasing music. its kind of remedial for her to have that mindset.

and it looks like its still gonna happen with or without her

Xscape would?ve really slayed the JD/B Cox era from like 04-06 thou... if they had reunited earlier or never broke up

It matters if your heart isn't isn't in the music that your actually making. It's not her fault that they are driven by something different than what she is driven by. IMO, she is able to think about it more level headed. I feel they are only thinking about it from a money/needing to work perspective because well....THEY NEED IT!!!

Exactly. Kandi has a lot of things going on. She has her businesses, now she's on Broadway, she has the reality TV show, she's booked. To be at that point in ur life and want to go back to recording an album (which they really wont make any money from), its kinda pointless. She's up for doing the tour because she's SMART. No one is checking for new Xscape music. How did those 2 songs do that they put out? Even on social media? NOTHING. Kandi is actually quite smart and is really not here for the bullshit.

Its the same reason why Victoria Beckham is never interested in a Spice Girls reunion.

Exactly. How they miss these points? I don't understand.

Yeah she?s worried bout the money and business side of it

Fans would love new Music

She?s not passionate about it like that. Period


Kaeli.

Do Tamika & Latowtruck really NEED anything tho? 

I mean they seemed to have gotten along okay since the Xscape break up and just because they aren?t filthy rich doesn?t mean that they were dirt poor or anything. Tamika seems to be living a nice regular life outside of music.

It?s very selfish

If Ghan, Mo or any of my Queens had that mindset I?d be pissed

It?s selfish from an artist standpoint

She made an amazing point but that whole control freak thing turned me off. Like girl you haven?t made a good song since the early 00. Fly About was late and that song she wrote for her daughter was tragic.
ddddddddddddddddddd

Here, I don't think it was coming from a "feelin myself" kinda place (for once). She's at a place now where she wants full control of the music that she puts out there and her IMAGE. She knows that these girls aren't gonna agree with her musical ideas n directions and she knows she's not here for there's either, so lemme not waste my time or theirs.

Right bc the new music they have released is LATE

Opposites Attract.

yeah

You?ve never really heard them having money issues plus LaTocha lives in the same area as Tiny and T.I.


It's unconditional, these days you know....

That is not selfish.

There's nothing wrong with her reasonings or concerns. They are a 90s group and honestly nobody wants to hear no new music from them. Even at the concert, when Dream Killa came on, I heard a girl say, "Oh naw. Iono that song. They need get back to the old shit." That's ALL they wanna hear. Ain't nobody gonna buy the music from now and "Dream Killa" is the best song they have out right now cause them other songs are garbage.

It's best for them to just tour with the old shit, do the movie and continue on with their reality show. It was actually good, had steady ratings and most people wanted the season to be longer.

Scott.

Not to mention, they've already stated that the group is solid. Tamika said in an interview that Xscape has more things coming up and Kandi will be back with them once her stint on Broadway is up. It isn't like their having many issues. ESPECIALLY Kandi and Tamika. They are thick as thieves now.

Well that was honest as fuck so i won?t fault her here.

At first i was about to drag her thinking her only reasoning was that it would flop  :uhh: do you love music or not

But she basically admitted she just doesn?t fuck with them as a whole and she likes to be in control sddddd
