Yeah fr! Some of these newer American girl groups for some reason have poor dancing skills or just stand awkwardly on a stage and harmonise awfully....
Very good vocal control. It's not easy, I can imagine, to control your voice while dancing. Probably like controlling your voice while crying. My respects to them.
Blaque was really something to be Proud of ~ they knew how to Blend R&B and POP music perfectly…It says alot that Britney Spear & NYSNC got them as Opening acts very early in they’re Career. Left Eye really had Big Plans for them 🙏🏾♥️💯
@@THE1804SHOWCHAPTERTWOnot cousins, in trying to get a career going in the industry, Natina met Ron, Left Eye’s brother, and she reminded him of Lisa. She told him about Shamari, and Shamari brought in Brandi. He introduced them to Left Eye, and and she treated those girls like they were her babies. She was closest to Natina, who had very similar views to her own about life.
More like an album, because they both have similarities. I know Lisa had big plans and big dreams. Today I wonder how big of a huge hip hop artist lefteye would have been. 😎
MrYourstruly78 lefteye93 ah yeah I get that, their energies would've bounced off one another and created a force to be reckoned with, I often wonder where the artists who've passed would've been as well and sometimes look for artists today who can show me that their hard work wasn't in vain, but I've seen nothing of the sort! Only they could've done it like they could✊ maybe in the 2020's somebody will show up and give me hope for today's music scene
I dont think anyone can bring to the table what these artists had brought. Back in the day these artists struggled to be where they were and rose to fame because they sang and rapped about their own life experiences, they made their statements loud and clear. Who knows maybe God took em all back because he wanted good music up in heaven😉😎
These American girl groups walked so kpop groups could run!! Blaque was amazing. So many talented American girl groups got buried in the talent pit unfortunately and got forgotten about and the quality of the newer ones who can't really dance well or blend together beautifully as a group (like Fifth Harmony, respectfully) are what people think is the best American girl groups can get. This performance is just one of the very many examples of the potential that American girl groups had back then if they had better management. Anyways 808 is my fave Blaque song! Love these girls sm. ❤❤❤
Please stop saying they copied TLC. FYI: Blaque was discovered by Left Eye’s Brother under his management. However, Left Eye like what she saw and managed them instead. This is why you see so many similarities from TLC. I mean I thought the same thing when I was in elementary. Last, after Left Eye’s passing they did not have anyone to manage them or guide them with their career. Left Eye & Natina we’re friends and formed the group around Natina. Left Eye was the Godmother to Natina’s son. Natina has a son by rapper Kurupt. Left Eye passed away in 2002 but the group tried to make a come back in 2012 but Natina-(rapper) was hit by a car and died unfortunately. Hope this helps someone!!!
These are my girls. I need to do a reaction to my girls. Still remember when this first came out. 😩. Wow. So nostalgic!!! That first album was CLASSIC!!
I didn't know Natina Reed had passed away from last year. I thought she was still living as a parent of her son, Tren Brown. She was a good singer and a rapper and a member of blaque. R.I.P. Natina Reed!
YOU KNOW BACK IN THE DAY there wasn’t no public transportation when school let out for the summer. I Mapquest one of my ESCAPADES BACK IN THE DAY My old address when I was living at home as teenager 513 McKenzie Ct Belvedere SC to New Ellenton SC by foot or Bicycle. 6 hr 29 min (19.6 mi) *That’s how BAD IT WAS!! 😂😂
I thought of another one…..3 HRS 22 minutes when we stayed in CRESTLAND on McKenzie CT I would walk to BELLAMEADE in Augusta GA to Tonya Poseys house because she was best friends with my homies sister Lynn. (You know those REDBONES). *I was GONE!!! BAD…… TRUST ME YOU SHOULD BE HAPPY, I’ve calmed down tremendously. (This was my YOUTH we are talking about)
This was MCKENZIE..😂😂. From McKenzie to the AUGUSTA COLLEGE DORMITORY on Wrightsboro Road to see Cassandra Mobley back in day before she KNEW ALL THE CELEBRITIES FROM HOLLYWOOD!!! That’s RIGHT Tyler Perry….ME Carlos Ortez Chambliss. ON EVERYTHING I LOVE ❤️ SELAH
They were an extension of TLC, the new TLC....and no matter how old they would get they were always Little Girls in my opinion....which brings me to another question how in the hell is beYAWNcy claiming to be only 31 when Natina Reed would've been 34....anyway I never believe anything beYAWNcy says, she's much older. Anyway Rest In Peace Natina, may God be with you and your family and bring Peace to them and Rest Your Soul in Heaven.
yeah Natina wasnt really Lisa's biological cousin. she use to just say that. And yeah they were heavily influenced by TLC as far as image and group dynamic.
Yall: “they too much like TLC” LISA stole this group from her brother Ron! She got them their first deal, she managed them! She basically molded them to be Tlc 2.0 .
I think Left Eye was going for the DOC sound and style...Brandi sounds similar to Tboz in her lower register and with the rasp , and shamari like Chilli , with vocal ability and ability, and Natina like she, rapping and with a similar timbre .
Don’t see those similarities, even though they are similar groups. Only in left Eye and Natina, similar sound. But Shamari sings much better than tboz and chilli much better than Brandi
her vocal precision is bad but I still would never do without her.. I just had to have these girls in my ear.. didn't care that the notes were off alot.. they were plenty enough for me. loved it. lol
You low self esteem birds always spreading your hate and negativity all over UA-cam comment section. While Left Eye was a better Rapper than Natina these girls can out-sing T-boz and Chilli any day of the week. Rip Left Eye and Natina Reed tho.
I am Big fan of both groups but Left Eye said she helped Blaque because she saw potential for them to pick up where TLC would leave off unfortunately she passed away before she was able to really help them. #RIPLEFTEYE
SK R. Left eye saw a lot of tlc in the group that's the main reason she signed them she saw the same star power in them that tlc had and she wanted the world to see it as well it was intentional
Shamari is very underrated as a vocalist.
True.
Very
Excellent contralto
Yes she is I just listened to Leny again her runs were crazy.
@Daniel Santana sign the petition to get the can't get it back video released go to I luv blaque ivory on UA-cam only 200 signatures are needed.
Shamari held it down, good breath control she sang the whole way through
actual choreography and vocals. i miss this age. they were my favorite!
Oh hey Paro💋💋❤
Paro Deez wassup man?!!
Korea and Japan doing this now
Yeah fr! Some of these newer American girl groups for some reason have poor dancing skills or just stand awkwardly on a stage and harmonise awfully....
Shamari is singing live and their dancing to. That's very difficult, so they was in good shape
RIP Natina dope verse
Very good vocal control. It's not easy, I can imagine, to control your voice while dancing. Probably like controlling your voice while crying. My respects to them.
Natina Reed was so talented and beautiful!!!!! This group definitely have stood the test of time ❤#I miss my teenage years.
I was a senior in high school when this first came out!!! One of my fave bops from Blaque 🔥🔥🔥 R.I.P to both Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes and Natina Reed 🕊🕊🙏🏾

SunKissNicole For real because my new generation is never gonna be like those days smdh

A VERY SERIOUS TRACK RIP MISS REED
Shamari’s breath control was amazing! Her mic was def ON! Can’t say the same for Brandi; shamari def sang her verse.
She was def singing live too because I heard both of them 🙄
I was a teen on the dance team in the late 90s. We did this routine for pep rally. 🤭😊🤣👍🏽👏🏽👌🏽
Blaque and tlc style is so original
they sound good in harmony
Each of them have celebrity look alikes, Ii honestly looks like Da Brat, Monica, and Megan Good performing lol
Lmao hahaha true Brandi is beautiful like Megan
I believe shamari and Monica are cousins.

BLAQUE WAS A GREAT R&B GROUP REST IN PEACE FOREVER NATINA REED.

Favorite song from them!

I didn't know Natina Reed had passed away from last year. I thought she was still living as a parent of her son, Tren Brown. She was a good singer and a rapper and a member of blaque. R.I.P. Natina Reed!
aww that lisa left eyes group
hermosas son unas bellezas🥰🥰🥰🥰
Ppl was comparing them to TLC not so much TLC is the Only Trio group that sold over 10 mill the best female group of all time R.I.P Natina
cutiemonroe It's because Lisa Left Eye Lopes made this group
True but so many other groups that sold less were better singers 702 ,Xscape SWV En vogue.
2:53 get it Natina!
literally my fav song by them
She definitely looks better with dark hair.
Definitely their best performance of this song for me.
I love you baby girl rip
Thank you Kandi for writing this song for them

Sang Shamari!! ❤❤❤
Shamar and Brandi look alike here
Ikr
@@tidell88 they did on the album cover too a little.
No seriously! I googled it and it says they’re not related to each other at all. I couldn’t believe it and I still don’t lol
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nice job 👏
RIP!
Um No they anit. Because i watched there concerts live before and was close up they can sing. So stop trying to find fault in these girls concert.
yeah Natina wasnt really Lisa's biological cousin. she use to just say that. And yeah they were heavily influenced by TLC as far as image and group dynamic.
They sound the same as the record.
Yall: “they too much like TLC”

Left Eye discovered them
@@torianmcneill3794 nah her brother did & she took them over as her group
@@misslaflam33 Left Eye was Natina’s mentor
@@misslaflam33 what does her brother have to do with it? when Left Eye wasn’t with her group she mentored Blaque
@@misslaflam33 never knew they were with Lisa's brother first until I read it in the article. Learn somethin new every day
Rest in Peace Natina Reed smh
You are good at that you can get a chance and get some good news from you
💋💋💋
Natina was left eye alll the way
Old school music top
Unfortunately, they were so similar....even in death. RIP
I think Left Eye was going for the DOC sound and style...Brandi sounds similar to Tboz in her lower register and with the rasp , and shamari like Chilli , with vocal ability and ability, and Natina like she, rapping and with a similar timbre .
Don’t see those similarities, even though they are similar groups. Only in left Eye and Natina, similar sound. But Shamari sings much better than tboz and chilli much better than Brandi
@@RM-kl4cq it’s like a TLC remake R I P Natina Aaliyah and Left Eye
Alright Shamari!!
Damm....two of them are dead😢😢😢😢
mine too
I see molestation charges pending.😮😮
They were good just too similar to TLC and I think that's why it didn't work out
cozy Jones it’s because the rapper died. They were kind of successful before she died.
They were successful though
her vocal precision is bad but I still would never do without her.. I just had to have these girls in my ear.. didn't care that the notes were off alot.. they were plenty enough for me. loved it. lol
“bad” is an overstatement..... imo
I truly didn't like blaque well there song but natina was fine as hell R I P natina didn't like 808 didn't make scenes
Looking back they are very much like TLC. I don't know why Left Eye would sign and promote a group that was just like hers. That makes no sense to me.
You low self esteem birds always spreading your hate and negativity all over UA-cam comment section. While Left Eye was a better Rapper than Natina these girls can out-sing T-boz and Chilli any day of the week. Rip Left Eye and Natina Reed tho.
