In a time when the music industry seems to be longing for a stable R&B group, veteran girl band Allure plans to help fill that void. The 90âs quartet joined Twitter on New Year to announce their plans for a new album in 2011.
Alia Davis, Linnie Belcher, Lalisha McClean and Akissa Mendez are best known for “Head Over Heels” and “All Cried Out” from their self titled debut album released in 1997. After their sophomore effort, member Linnie Belcher left the group, resulting in lackluster sales for their third outing, 2009âs ‘Patiently Waiting.â
No date has been set for their upcoming fourth studio album release.
The music industry has been waiting patiently for the return of Allure, one of the most beloved R&B groups in recent memory. After an eight year hiatus, this veteran group is finally ready to make their triumphant comeback with a brand new album set to be released in 2011. It’s sure to be a must-hear event and fans around the globe can’t wait!
Allure first made waves when they released their self-titled debut album back in 1997. The record quickly went platinum and produced hit singles like “Head Over Heels” which gained them both critical acclaim and commercial success. They followed that up with 1999’s chart-topping release From the Essence of Love, featuring fan favorites such as “No Question” and “What About Us?”
Now with a renewed spirit and fresh perspective on life, Allure is ready to take the world by storm once again. Their upcoming project promises to be another classic that will surely capture hearts everywhere. Get ready for what’s about to come from this amazing group – it’ll be an experience you won’t want to miss!
History Of Allure
Allure is a veteran R&B group that has been active since its formation in 1997. Comprised of four members—Alia Davis, Kecia Lewis-Evans, Lara Johnston, and Vernie Bennett—the group was signed to Def Jam Recordings shortly after they formed. With the label’s help, Allure released their self-titled debut album in late 1997 which spawned two Billboard Hot 100 charting singles: “Head Over Heels” and “All Cried Out”.
The group followed up with their sophomore effort entitled Chapter II (1999). This album featured the hit single “No Question” featuring Nas as well as the Top 10 hit “What About Us?” The success of this album allowed Allure to continue touring in support of it until 2002 when they went on hiatus.
After almost a decade away from the music scene, Allure announced in 2011 that they would be releasing a new album soon. While there have been no further updates about the project, fans are eagerly awaiting more information about what will become of Allure’s highly anticipated return to the studio.
Details Of Upcoming Album
Now, as Allure gears up for their long-awaited return to the music industry, many fans are curious about what new sounds and collaborations they can expect from the group. Although there have been no official announcements regarding the details of their upcoming album or its release date, there is plenty of speculation surrounding it.
The four members of Allure have hinted that their comeback project will be a mix of both old school R&B vibes with modern production elements. In an interview with Billboard Magazine, Alia Davis stated: “We’re bringing back some classic soulful sounding records but we’re also making sure to stay current. We want people to know that while our sound has evolved over time, it still remains rooted in true R&B.”
Additionally, reports suggest that Allure may collaborate with other notable artists on this album such as Mary J Blige and Drake. While nothing has yet been confirmed by either artist’s camp, these rumors continue to excite loyal fans who wait patiently for more information about their favorite group’s highly anticipated return.
Conclusion
I’m excited to see what Allure has in store for us with their upcoming album. We’ve all been waiting a long time for new music from the veteran R&B group, and now it’s finally here! I can only imagine how much they have grown since their last release, as well as how much of an impact this new project will make on the music industry. It’s clear that Allure is determined to show everyone why they are still relevant after more than 20 years in the game.
It’ll certainly be interesting to hear what kind of sound we get from them on this one. Will Allure mix things up by experimenting with different genres or stick to their classic style? Either way, I know we’re all very eager to see just how far these talented musicians can take us with their newest musical creations.
Allure has always been known for delivering quality material full of soulful vibes and heartfelt lyrics, so I’m sure whatever they come out with next year will be no exception. Here’s hoping that 2011 brings something special from the beloved group – because after so many years of anticipation, it would truly be a shame if they didn’t deliver something amazing!
