The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Flying waaaay underneath the hoopla that the BET Hip-Hop Awards and Echo Project is generating in this city, is a show that probably would have garnered more interest any other weekend.
Dawn Robinson, who made her way onto the music scene with phenomenal all-female group En Vogue, and then had a short stint with Lucy Pearl - a combo with seemingly unrealized potential - is playing the Apache Café tonight.
Which brings to mind a couple of questions: Would you rather see her performing alone or with En Vogue — particularly considering the dearth of female AND male R&B groups these days? Leading to an even bigger question: Why do you think there are so few groups in ANY genre these days? (When you look at the BET Hip-Hop Awards having to pick Bone Thugs-N-Harmony out of near obscurity, and the Shop Boyz out of one-hit-wonderland, to fill out the best hip-hop group category, it makes you wonder…)
