In an exclusive listening session, the women from the legendary R & B group Xscape premiered new music from their upcoming album.
Tameka “Tiny” Harris, LaTocha Scott, and Tamika Scott aka Xscape 3 the alter ego of Xscape, sat down in an intimate music listening session where they dropped a few club bangers and r&b ballads. Before the music began, group member Tamika Scott gave the crowd a disclaimer on what they are about to listen to by saying “Xscape 3 is the alter ego of Xscape, so some of what you are about to hear is going to be different from the 90’s style of Xscape.” Fourth member Kandi Burruss was not in attendance due to her participation in off-Broadway play NEWSical.
In the hour-long listening and Q &A session, the group took the Berry Gordy Motown approach and turned the session into a music focus session. Where the group used the audience to help them gauge the best tracks for the upcoming album.
The group also took the time to address questions about their upcoming tour and if their tour would include Kandi Buress. The Trio confirmed that they are booked up until May and Kandi will not be apart of the currently booked dates because of her Broadway show obligations according to fellow band members. When asked will Kandi be returning to the group Tiny simply said we will know by June. The group also confirmed they will be performing on the main stage at the Essence Festival.
The ladies even crushed the movie rumors by confirming that the Xscape movie is in the works and they even have an idea of who will be playing their role in the film.
2018 looks like it will be an amazing year for the veteran female R&B group. Check out the exclusive Hip Hop Enquirer behind the scene video of the Xscape 3 listening session.
