Xscape working on new music, Verzuz with SWV
We recently did a feature looking back on Xscape over the years. Some of the footage we included was of their successful Great Xscape tour which showed there is high demand out there for more music by these talented women. They seem to have noticed.
Kandi Burruss teased on Instagram "No matter how much time passes whenever we get in that vocal booth together it's like we never missed a beat! #Xscape". So it sounds like at least some kind of magic was happening. It's unclear how much of a production it was, if they were just having fun or if they're working on a more complete project that we'll get to see in the coming months/year.
For those unfamiliar with Xscape, they are one of those groups that had consistent success and left the industry while still riding high. All three of their albums went platinum. They have a significant lineup of hits, including "Just Kickin It," "Understanding," "The Arms of the One Who Loves You," "Who Can I Run To?" and more.
As part of it, we also got a teaser that a Verzuz with SWV is possible. Xscape and SWV are so tightly coupled as strong female vocal groups, I'd love to see something like this happen. We've seen a lot of big Verzuz battles this year, and these women would be a great opportunity to extend that concept. We've included the post about the possible concept below, so check it out.
What do you think of the idea? Are you game to see SWV and Xscape come together? Would you be up for buying new music from the ladies? Who else would you want to see in Verzuz battles.
