    Welcome to the official RUclips channel of chart-topping female R&B vocal group, En Vogue. This is the home of 90s hits “Hold On,” “My Lovin’ (You’re Never Gonna Get It),” “Giving Him Something He Can Feel,” “Free Your Mind,” and “Don’t Let Go (Love)” among successful albums ‘Born To Sing,’ ‘Funky Divas,’ and ‘EV3,’ and numerous awards and nominations.
    En Vogue was formed by producers Denzil Foster and Thomas McElroy under the vision of a modern R&B girl group with strong vocals, intelligence, and show-stopping glamour. Dawn Robinson, Cindy Herron, Maxine Jones, and Terry Ellis made the cut out of 3,000 women who auditioned. The group was an immediate hit upon their first single in 1990 and set the standard for female vocal groups. Through the evolution of the lineup to the current members of Herron-Braggs, Ellis, and Rhona Bennett, En Vogue continues to tour, release new music, and dazzle and inspire fans everywhere.

    As a 44 year old white guy who started listening to hip hop and rb in the late 80s, En Vogue were the shit. This was their first single I believe-shit hit hard with both vocals and beat. They ushered in a great time for female rnb through the 90s-TLC, Jade, SWV, Xscape, Brownstone, Total, etc. I was in love with Cindy-convinced I was going meet her when I was 13 lol.

      ​@@roberttange805 🤦‍♀️😂😂😂😂😂 What are you babbling on about. You are 100% incorrect. R&B (Rhythm Blues) music started in the 1940's, one of the earliest performers is Louis Jordan ( 1944, Is You Is, Or Is You Ain't My Baby). I'm a 53 yrs old black woman( born 1970) and grew up listening to R&B, my entire life. These ladies, were also blessed with amazing vocals. So before you continue to repeat your ignorance on social media platforms. Take some time and do some research and educate yourself.
