"Evidence is growing that when combined with a true marketing capability and the revenue power of virtual game technology, live-streaming provides immense benefit, including for such vocal legends as Terry, Rohna and Cindy."
Formed in 1989 in Oakland, California, En Vogue released their debut album "Born to Sing" in 1990. They recently celebrated the 30th anniversary of their debut at the Billboard Music Awards with a performance of "Free Your Mind" that reaffirmed their status as one of the top 5 girl groups of all time. People Magazine raved, "The women pulled off crisp choreography and impressive vocal runs throughout the entire song, showing that they've still got it after all these years." The New York Daily News stated, "En Vogue stuns Billboard Awards with '90s anthem against bigotry: 'Still crushing it after all these years." Original member Terry Ellis told ABC Radio the song speaks to the group's personal encounters with discrimination: "[There's] Sandra Bland, Breonna Taylor, and many more. So we know we're not exempt either," Ellis continues. "It's a real concern, a real fear that has to be addressed. So we'll be getting our feet on the ground at some point."
Most recently En Vogue received the Black Music Honors prestigious Icon Award and will be performing at Dick Clark's Rockin Eve on December 31.
