I always find it funny how a lot of black people want to act like colorism doesn't occur towards dark skinned black women, and want to act like it's all in their heads-- BUT the same doesn't happen when it comes to discussing racism being directed towards black men (ESPECIALLY from the police).🤔
@@LisaF777 So then she was put out front, to be seen more. Wouldn't they want to hide her, keep her in the background if she didn't look "the part"..? Why would they make her the lead if they didn't like her look?
You put a dark skin girl in a group to Sabotage I never understood. A girl group needs a dark skin girl so little girls who are dark skin can have someone as beautiful as they are. Dark skin is so beautiful I’m so happy I’m dark skin
I'm from the UK and growing up, my sister (whos dad is black) never had many fellow British role models to identify with. She used to hate her natural hair and being the odd one out. But as soon as she saw Scary Spice she had someone to identify with. Suddenly the hair she hated become something everyone wanted. Kids need this kind of thing.
Do u really think that a recording company wanted to sabotage the group that made them money on purpose?🤔I think not!..but many people still have those old mindsets "that light skin is the right skin to be in" and unfortunately colorist exist even amongst ourselves! So it's a shame and not surprising that they used her for her voice, but she'd never be good enough to grace the front covers of the magazine or good enough to stand front and center due to not meeting eurocentric standards of beauty!
🇬🇧 UK stand up! I used to really like this group, didn’t know they had all this drama! I remember the personal drama between Alesha and Harvey, messy messy 🤦🏽♀️
Harvey was a full on wasteman! I knew that he cheated but I didn't know it was with javine 😂😂😂. Like ja-who now. Thats why you don't mess with people's personal lives
Lol wait till you find out what jo did on celebrity Big brother. She had death threats and everything delivered to her house after the racists comments she made against her bollywood star housemate
loveeee Mis-teeq! Other facts include that their record label Telstar went bankrupt as they signed Victoria Beckham when she went solo and put so much money behind her, when her album failed they had to shut and in interviews Mis-Teeq blamed her for the closure and that contributed to them splitting. Also Alesha's was dropped by Polydor after the release of her second solo single Knockdown underperformed, and she independently released her debut album Fired Up in Japan before going on Strictly Come Dancing, then all the record labels wanted to re-signed her.
That's right. Plus, Mis-Teeq were going to focus on their US takeover, but Alesha got homesick and said she didn't want to leave the UK, so the US plans were scrapped.
Because the complexion that people are trying to achieve through tanning and bronzers is not the same complexion as those who are criticised. So although I do not condone the behaviour, I must cordially point out that your argument is flawed. Hence why the other members of Mis-Teeq did not have to experience the same treatment as Sabrina.
@@MD-722 they are still trying to have a darker complexion so why not just be pale than? I’m proud of my skin color and it’s sad dark skinned women are made to believe they are ugly smh they want everything we have but not be us
@@Calicapenergy88 Trying to achieve a darker complexion does not mean trying to be black as black people are not _tanned._ When white (or even non-white people, for that matter) darken their skin they are not trying to achieve the complexion of dark-skinned people so it is ridiculous to say _"they want everything we have"_ when it is literally impossible for dark-skinned black people to achieve the complexion that tanned non-blacks do and for non-blacks to achieve the same complexion as dark-skinned black people.
@@MD-722 I hear what you're saying but some non blacks go as dark as alisha and sue-ellisse with their fake tans e.g jesi Nelson and there are black women who are naturally that colour without being mixed race, I am one of them.
Colorism has been so much of a downfall for dark skinned women who are really talented people who just want their time to be able to show that things can be done! However, these people often feel like it's very ugly to be your best & even though you are beautiful in your own unique way it's often hard to show your true self identity! I'm so proud of my own color whether it's celebrated or not, embracing how much you hate it, we can really make a difference to continue to push ourselves into the stratosphere & be the best version of ourselves as only as we can be 🥰❤
Just look up( RealRealityGossip) here on TH-cam RRG it's talk's about her and what happened to her. also other great artists & actresses go check it out.
Misteeq songs I like: 1."one night stand" 2. "All I want" 3. "Be with me" 4: "why" 5. "strawberries" 6. "Home tonight" 7. "Nitro" 8. "Roll on" 9. "Dance your cares away" 10. "SCANDALOUS". I love misteeq ♡♡♡
I’m in South Africa but I remember “Scandalous” was popping even here back when I was in school. It’s still a banger. Sad not shocked about the colorism though.
..I appreciate that the owner of this channel covers music from overseas particularly UK artists/acts who may be a little more obscure in the US. I’m impressed that she knows a wide range of music.
One of if not my favourite group when i was growing up! Still are 🥰 I’m so happy Alesha is still doing great and relevant today. I hope the rest of the ladies are doing well 🙏🏾❤️
Hey I love your channel, I think girl bands in the UK were very competitive in the music market the only song I know from them is scandalous, please do a video on the singer and model Cassie Ventura ❤
@@themezzymahon okay so I’m guessing you are American. This is the UK and we DONT do that dusty one drop rule that was founded on hate, racism and white supremacy. Good riddance.
Omg LOVED MISTEEQ LADIES!!! THEIR STYLES TOO MEMORIES, LOVED THAT MUSIC GOT ME THROUGH SO MUCH GROWING UP AND ALESHA ALWAYS MY FAVE, OUTSPOKEN, CONFIDENT AND A SWEET GIRL
Yes honey I’m from Louisiana Scandalous was my joint! The Summer of 2004 was poppin when I saw this on MTV Hits and TRL I cut up everytime it came on! I had so much fun with this song when I was 14.
Check out Pod of the Pops on Apple podcasts; they have multiple episodes with in-depth coverage of each album era and the solo careers of each Sugababe. It’s REALLY worth a listen 😉
Great video. Mis-Teeq weren't really in the same league as S Club 7 and the Spice Girls (the latter didn't release much after 2000 anyway), they rode more on the UK garage scene of the early 2000s alongside So Solid Crew and Ms Dynamite etc. I remember the subject of Zena leaving was quite touchy for a while - in interviews the trio would say "She just left" and refuse to be drawn on it. After the second album they went quiet for a while then the split did seem a bit sudden. Almost surprised the lawsuit from Sabrina didn't arrive sooner. In other news, I was once on an identity parade on Britain's Got Talent and I'm pretty sure Alesha doesn't actually need a microphone - to her credit, the girl is loud!
XD I loved that last part! I can hear it XD I remember the little "merry xmas everyone" bit, an old video of Mis-Teeq (maybe the B With Me MV behind the scenes??) she was LOUD XD That's why I loved her
Would also love to see stories on rappers/rap groups Richie Rich, Funkdoobiest, Erule, Channel Live, Ill Al Skratch, K-Solo, Pudgee, Murphy Lee, O.C., Lord Finesse, Maestro Fresh Wes, Showbiz and AG just to name a few
They lied 🤥 to the lead singer of the group. She was definitely chocolatey fine! I always wondered what happened to this group after scandalous. I thought they were going to be like the next TLC.
@@TheMelody15 Lol 😆 that wasn’t a reach. That was my personal opinion being given. You may disagree and I respect that. I stand by what I said knowing they could never be TLC nor do I think they would want to be. The rapper in this group reminded me of left eye as far as her rapping in the scandalous song.
@@erichicks8698 They seem more comparable to Destiny's Child even tho there's a rapper in the group. Personally Mis-Teeq is just another girl group who had cute songs but nothing really stood out about them.
This is proof that there are so many groups out there that you can't hear it all. Don't remember these gis in the US. Maybe we should play more Brit Groups here.
They definitely had that potential. But no chance to reach that level in the UK, even if all of them had been light skinned. I’m in the UK, and there’s a reason Black singers and actors have to leave and go to the States. Estelle? Idris? Seal? John Boyega? Just a few examples.

Alesha first album had already flopped/leaked, she was dropped from the label and there was hype around MC cheating on her with Javine during the casting process so she literally was in the pits career and personal life wise. Strictly was right up her ally at the time to get label attention.
