When Destiny's Child came out, they literally obliterated all the Duo, and Trio female groups. Mathew Knowles had the music industry on lock at that point. Please do a video on the 90's female group MoKenStef please.
@@divinefeminineoracle5825 TLC also mentored the group Blaque in the late 90's early 00's and they had platinum records/hits and were in movies. When Left Eye died they lost their way. Also 702 had platinum hits and albums in Destiny's Child times, too. DC was obviously most popular and would spawn THEE BEYONCE, but girl groups were thriving, still and there was room for everyone- how it should be.
I was 9 when their song All cried out was released.... I legit thought I was Whitney Houston singing that song without understanding the lyrics. It’s still one of my favourite songs!!!
I don't disagree. I think Allure's only issue was Mariah mentioning the label and naming another artist as the first, and not mentioning Allure who were actually the first to the label.
@@JamaalABivens I think Mariah was compromised between the ugliness of her divorce primarily and possibly the incidents with the group mentioned in the video
I knew Linnie and Aliyah since I was a little girl. Ran into them both over the years and it is evident how unfair and unkind life was to them. Damn shame. 😕
Omg I remember seeing their music video for All Cried out when I was little I was trying to remember the group and the song but I couldn’t I just remember the trees in the background. I finally found it Thank you!
I was wondering on the group 7 mile what did happened to them ? They was on the same label as Allure too( last chance was my fav song from them the vocals on that song was beautiful)
I was wondering why the girl group allure did not succeed the way they should have. To me their music was far more better in destiny child... (I almost said that's destiny kids)🤣😂🤣? I digress... The point is I'm tired of this industry purposely destroying raw good talent people who came from the school of Fame.
It was too much competition to be honest. I mean you had a lot of R&B female groups (males too), that came and went like an assembly line during the 90s. Also, these groups during that period in the 90s (Allure is no exception) sound like and seem to be copying the next group. There were only a few standouts (like Destiny's Child, TLC, EnVogue, SWV, Total, Zane) that had better promotion, their own unique sound and image that stood out.
As much as I like mariah if this is really the truth then I think she's wrong. We hear too many stories about producers doing their artist dirty and robbing them and stuff like that and I bet if she was anybody else y'all would've been ready to drag them for filth
@@saj8 it was her label but she didn't own it, her husband created it, it was then shutdown after they had divorced while at the same time the man was trying to ruin her career while already making her life miserable.
i wanna die........ man i ve loved FAME since i was a little kid...i Loved Allure and i m re listening to their first album like crazay ,lately...and i was in an hotel at LaGuardia,a week ago,during my first ever trip to New York..and didn t knew neither ,that Allure were from there and Fame was filmed there..... :(
All the stuff with jlo and him taking stuff fro Mariah and she should’ve never married that man. I love mimi but the karma was getting with that man when he was married or separated.wow so she didn’t mention them in the book that’s messed up.
I'm not sure why Mariah can talk about Tommy, Jlo (even though she didn't state her name, but we knew who she was referring to), and other acts under her now defunct label but couldn't/didn't mention Allure in her book. Even if there were terms from a divorce settlement not to, it still doesn't make sense how she could/did mention other acts. And definitely questioning her allegedy seeing them and acting like she didn't see them...something doesn't add up 🤷🏾♀️

❤true. I wouldn’t even recognize them I don’t remember seeing much of them.
Their version of “All cried out” will always be my favorite.
Yes. The vocals are richer & not as rudimentary as the original.
Totally agree they were Awesome!
I prefer the original version by Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam
Mine as well. I just paused the video to sing in traffic😂
SAME!!! And I was HEAVY into 112 when their version came out so it was a no brainer for me!
I remember the song they had called head over heels featuring nas.
That's still my jam 💕
Thats my jam.
Im happy that the original three stayed friends after all these years.
Ikr
I loved their remake of All Cried Out
Ikr! Their harmonies are insane. I love that song!

I agree, I love Eternal.
The vocals were on point!!!

Their song 'when the shades go down' off The Best Man soundtrack is what got me into their music. That song went hard and was super silky smooth!

I'm going to be honest, I liked "Head Over Heels" by Allure the most.
I remember these girls. I had their firsr CD, lol. It was nice. They were certainly underrated-as so many groups were of that time.
Mariah did not do right by them at all.I feel the label situation was not under her control,but to act like they never existed.Damn that's cold!
Tommy had control over everything Mariah had and did once they divorced he pulled the record label it tommy fault Mariah never had very little if any control of anything when she was with tommy

Anybody remember “The Good Girls” or “The gyrlz”??? I wouldn’t mind seeing a story on them.
I thought that was JT from city girls! I listened to Allure and Divine alot back then.
These little sidebar celebrity facial expression interludes make me chuckle . Glad these are included lol
I loved their album!!! My favorite joint was the one with LL. I still play it as a DJ....
I’m still listening to this song in 2021!

Head Over Heels ❤❤❤❤👏👏👏
No question, and When the shades go down are good. Linny was my favourite

Lot of talent came out of Laguardia hs
I remember they were all very pretty as a kid

Y'all should do an episode on whatever happened to "Producers". Or just include them in this show.
As Well As Songwriter's, Background Singer's,& Engineer's.
Do one on the girl group Assorted Phlavors.
Tommy mottola did her dirty
When the shades go down...💯
Do a video on the 90's trio group Divine . Lately is literally the only song I know from them.
I was thinking about that song Lately as I was watching this video.

Beautiful women none the less

Head over heels was my favorite song 😍😍
In 2010 they made an album called Times Up but it’s nowhere on TH-cam, there’s only one song, who can send them to me?
Miss these funky divas and all the legendary stars of the '90s
Head over heels and all cried out were my favorites
OMG - I remember meeting them while in college {Savannah, Ga} on their press tour ... After that I don't ever remember hearing anything else from them
Head over heels is my favorite!
I love "Enjoy Yourself"
I loveddddddd them! Great video ❤️

I heard they was some mean girls and that’s probably why they didn’t go far.
Hmm there may be some truth to that. Messy lol
Destiny Child jacked Allure's style
Why did they go after Mariah??? Don't they know her fans are as crazy as the beehive?
Head ova heels was my song 🎧 🎶
I always play Never Question!!
I don’t get stan culture if they had real business dealings with Mariah, and are speaking first hand of their experience.
All cried out was my jam w/112
Happy new year
Allure is my child's middle name after this group.
Head over heels will always and forever be my shit

Nothing to do with Mariah, it was husband who created label for Mariah but after Mariah divorced him, the label was done.
They were basically collateral damage. Like 3T with Michael Jackson. They were all just punished in order to punish one main artist
