MUSIC NEWS: RICHGIRL OPENING FOR BEYONCE + VIDEO OF THEM ACAPELLA

Wednesday, June 17, 2009

Since releasing their video “He Ain’t Wit Me Now (Tho)” about three weeks ago, Rich Harrison’s girl group, Richgirl (SEVEN, LYNDRIETTE, AUDRA, & BRAVE) has been making some waves in the music scene. Word is, the group will be opening up for Beyonce on the North American leg of the “I Am” Tour. Bandmember Audra has confirmed via Twitter:

Okay…I just confirmed GREAT news!!!!!! RICHGIRL is officially opening up for BEYONCE!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHH! GOD is sooooo good!

The tour will kick off on in New York City on June 21st at Madison Square Garden. For now you can check them performing during the ‘BK FamFest national tour’ (click here for dates/info). Also keep reading to view video of them singing “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” live.

Blogger Gyant chilled with the girls last week and got video of them singing A Capella. Peep it above.

And anybody can wear an eye patch.

They have that right.

Just because Left Eye wore one, doesn’t mean the next person can’t.

They are a hot lil group. I love some of the songs I’ve heard. Go to YouTube and search “24″, “Itty Bitty” and “Pimp Cup” to hear their other songs.

I’ll be at the Beyonce concert on the 26th in Philly!!!! Cant wait!!!

they sound very VERY nice… they do remind me of DESTINY’s CHILD…. i think its very crazy that they all can sing. Hopefully they stay strong and keep pushing …thats how they’ll make it!

There will never be a group that can nail glorious harmonies like Destiny’s Child. These girls can blow and they’re beautiful and they’ll be big, mark my words, but their harmonies are just not what B and the girls (recall “Amazing Grace” from The Writing’s on the Wall) could concoct…Beyonce may have dominated lead vocal BUT where DC was strong was harmonies…u can’t steal their shine there! Either they just had it or their voices just blended so well. Soul-stirring harmonies.

This is in no way putting these girls down…pls may it not be interpreted that way cos I actually dig Richgirl esp their joint “24″, it goes hard!

@ #16- That’s true, they’re no Destinty’s Child, but they seem cool. Didn’t like them at first but I’m willing to give them the benefit of the doubt and see where they go from here. I must say I’m impressed that they are opening for Beyonce, but they must remember they’re opening for THE BEST so better bring their A game straight.

18.

Wednesday, June 17, 2009 /

They surely are lucky to open for Beyonce. Bee just wants an act that won’t possibly outshine her and she got it with these chicks. LOL
Their voices are okay but En Vogue or Destiny’s Child …they are not

19.

I wish them the best…But I have to be honest I listened to the video underneath of them sing “Over The Rainbow” it sounds like a bunch of noise…No harmony…The only female group where everyone can sing and they had great vocal compatibility was EnVogue ….I have nothing against Destiny’s Child but I never heard LeToya sing till recently or LaTiva period they did sound good singing Amazing Grace but Beyonce and Kelly seemed like they did most of the vocals then….So I would only say EnVogue

i like them i think they r the best out of the new crop of girl groups coming up, electrik red sophia fresh etc. they can all sing and they’re doing big things opening 4 beyonce so early on. their name is because of rich harrison right? didnt he put them together?

31.

Hate to love me

Wednesday, June 17, 2009 /

@19 I kinda agree a bit…All these girls here can sing…and I would agree the first group of Destiny Child was great…the second not so much…I really didn’t like Michelle too much or her voice I just never felt like she really fit the group….I think Michelle is fab, but just by herself…

They sound nice…funny they’re opening for Bey cause the first thing I said when I saw that video for “he aint wit me now” was they look like a low budget Destiny’s Child..

and @Tru… DC was cool but you giving them too much credit, they aint got SHIT on En Vogue babe , not back in the day or today.

Wednesday, June 17, 2009 /

How are y’all gone say that y’all don’t like them when y’all haven’t even heard anything that they have done thus far :roll: . And if you have, then you know all of them can SING AND DANCE at the same time. All these girls have a voice and no one outshines one another. This is going to be the girl group to look out for because they’re def. coming for heads. I’m sorry but basing your opinion off the name is ridiculous in itself. I just think ppl are afraid of new artist. These girls are going to be around for a hot minute. Wait and see. ;grin:

39.

I guarantee you that her North American tour won’t be any where near a top seller like Britney’s. Lol.

41.

Its Britney b*&^%

Wednesday, June 17, 2009 /

Yes the girls can sing, but they sound very “done up” which makes me wonder how much of this is raw talent. Get four “attractive” girls, give them vocal coaching for two years and dance classes and bam you have a new girl group. Obvously they must have had some talent to begin with but they do sound very polished, and I prefer groups like TLC where the talent was raw and untamed. For the time being I’m not feeling them but that might change

And they do remind me of DC when they first started but there a lot more polished than DC was. I guess Beyonce’s keeping her enemies closer by letting them be her opening act, she knows people are gonna compare Laundrette to her and she wants to give the impression that she’s not threatened by her clone. Before we know it Rich Girl will have broken up and Laundrette will go solo, sell millions and it will be Destinys Child all over again; typical

YES IT WILL YOU BEYONCE HATER SHE IS BEYONCE BUT WHO WAS IN THE TOP 4 FORBES LIST I KNOW BRIT WAS NOT THERE LOL

I AM JUST SAYING

Wednesday, June 17, 2009 /

Ok…so they are just singing. No concept of tone, volume, or blend. But that Seven…wow! She blew me away. Great voice. Too bad the people will focus on Lyndriette b/c she’s the light skinned, “Beyonce look-a-like”…Just saying!
But with time, I feel they’ll get better. Hell I hope!

WELL DC WAS THE FIRST TO BRING THAT BACK TO THE MUSIC WORLD.. AND THEY COULD SING AND BE SEXY AND LOOK BEAUTIFUL DOING IT AND THATS WHY THE ARE THE BIGGEST SELLING FEMALE GROUP OF ALL TIME..

some of them sound good individually, but the blonde girl is not a strong vocalist. and their harmonies don’t even scratch the surface of envogue or DC……they need to get some tips from B on tour.

LOL @ them being no Destiny’s Child like they were the ultimate female girl group. En Vogue, SWV, Brownstone, Xscape, Pure Soul, Ex-Girlfriend…they’re are too many to name (and that’s just groups from the 90’s). All these groups would DC out the water.

@Barbie “Tha Real One” - just because you are a Bey fan don’t mean you should hate on Britney - Britney is a SuperStar too! She has that IT Factor and will continue to sell millions despite the fact that is not known for her vocals. She is still very talented.

@51 - DESTINY’S CHILD IS THE WORLD’S BESTS ELLING FEMALE GROUP OF ALL TIME AWARDED THE WORLD MUSIC AWARDS IN 2005. THEY’VE SOLD MORE ALBUMS THAN TLC, THE ONLY GRIUP THAT HAS SOLD MORE THAN THEM IS THE SPICE GIRLS AND THEY ONLY TRAIL THEM BY 5 MILLION ALBUMS. BUT DC IS THE BEST SELLING FEMALE GROUP OF ALL TIME BECAUSE THEY’VE SOLD MORE RECORDS (AS IN ANYTHING RELEASED ON DISC FORMAT) THAN BOTH SPICE GIRLS AND TLC. BUT THEY’VE ALREADY SOLD MORE ALBUMS THAN TLC

Wednesday, June 17, 2009 /

I’m not surprised by richgirl opening for beyonce. If Beyonce can’t beat em, she joins em. She knows these girls will be hot, and she wants to attach her name to them to in a way that say she’s not threatened by them. I don’t think for one second this her trying to help some up and coming sisters out. Just like with Rhianna, anyone who reallys threatens beyonce’s status, she tries to pretend she’s a friend of theirs and shyt. It’s that whole keep your enemies closer thing. Beyonce saw how much attention they were getting, with the drop of the one video, and she also knows they probably gone be marketed as a young destiny’s child, and want to pretend to be okay with all of that and pretend as if she’s encouraging it and happy about it. Also, i think she wants to give the impression that she’s HANDING the crown over to them, instead of them TAKING it away from her in the future.

Bytch aint slick…Since when does she do good gestures for the newbies out the gate? When? Usually she treats you “to the left” as if you need to be on her level to just hang out with.

She knows she can’t beat em, so she’s pretending to join them (though it will be eating her up inside literally) so she’s got to pretend to be on board with them, in case the nation embraces these girls and start calling her a has been. It would look better if it appears she’s helping them, and willingly handing down the crown, instead of them straight jacking her ass for it like Rhianna is doing. She can’t take that anymore. She’s about 30, and she knows no matter how money grobbling she is, and no matter how much passion she got for the industry and making money, it’s coming to a end. She can’t keep this “be everything, be everywhere” thing up for 10 more years, others are coming for her spot, just like rhianna did. And at some point in the near future (like tomorrow), her name will be considered “old school.” lol.

And she’s no dummie, while she’s not a good actress, it won’t stop her from trying. But will she be successful at acting, more than likely not….so when the music has faded, so will she. She’ll try to stay current and dress like a kid like her man, and keep singing dumb ditties for the school kids, when one day them school kids gone realize this bytch is 40, why we listening to her…..the industry will sit her down, she won’t do it herself…

COMMENTING TO EVERY1 ELSES “OPINIONS”:

THEY SOUND BETTER THAN DC AS A GROUP CUZ THE ONLY VOICE HEARD FROM DC WAS BEYONCE, SO THAT DOESNT COUNT AS HARMONY..IF SHE WAS SINGING BY HERSELF MOST OF THE TIME.. EACH OF THESE GIRLS HAS A NICE VOICE…

I DONT LIKE THE NAME EITHER, THATS JUST ME THO, AND CALM DOWN I KNOW THE REASONING BEHIND THE NAME AND ITS STILL CHEESY AS HELL.

ON THE BRIGHT SIDE THEY ARE 4 VERY BEAUTIFUL WOMEN AND SOUND NICE TOGETHER SO I DO HOPE THEY MAKE IT WITHOUT COMPROMISING THEMSELVES TO THIS BOOTLEG INDUSTRY…HOPEFULLY THEY COME WITH REAL MUSIC AND NOT CATCHY MEANINGLESS SONGS…

JSCENE AS USUAL YOU RIDING PRETTY HARD AND ARE STATING NOTHING BUT UNTRUTHS. BEYONCE HAS GIVEN MANY NEW COMERS CHANCES TO SHINE. SHE HAS USED UNKNOWN PRODUCERS, DANCERS AND WRITERS. ALEXANDRA BURKE WAS TOLD SHE COULD OPEN FOR BEYONCE DURING HER EUROPEAN LEG BUT HAD TO DECLINE BECAUSE HER RECORD COMPANY HAD SCHEDULED HER TO RECORD DURING THIS THIS TIME. INSTEAD OF ALEXANDRA, SHONTELLE (NEWCOMER) PERFORMED. THERE WAS NOTHING BUT PRAISE FROM HER DURING AND AFTER THE SHOWS. FUNNY THING JSCENE NO ONE WHO WORKS WITH HER EVER HAVE ANYTHING BAD TO SAY ABOUT HER. LIKE SOMOENE HAS SAID, THIS WOMAN HAS PERFORMED FOR KINGS, QUEENS, PRESIDENTS AND PEERS, AND SHE IS STILL STANDING WITH A GREAT REPUTATION. SO FROM DIGNITARIES TO LEGENDS, ALL RESPECT BEYONCE GISELLE KNOWLES CARTER, I KNOW, I BOTHERS YOU.

@ #94- JSCENE- You seem to have an awful lot to say about someone you so blatently hate. LOL you’re riding her, just like the fans. Stop denying it boo. No one gives someone they dislike this much time unless they secretly envy. Dang, even I’m a fan and I don’t bother writing essays on the girl.

jscene

u said all that and it was cute and all but guess what you forgot. Bey is a solo act sweetie with SOLO success. They can never come and take her crown as a group. The reason they are on that tour is becuz they are a group. They arent even in the same category. So to say she dont wanna look dumb is ridiculous. Those girls would be hittin the pavement for a long time before they can even come close to taking anyone crown at this point

now..with that being said they are very talented and pretty but when you really sit and think about it they ARE being marketed as some sort of destiny child knockoff..that is nothing to brag about. I actually feel sorry for them a lil that they are always gonna have that follwoign them however long they are around..and i can guarantee you it wont be 10+ years like Bey been around

Bey is in a totally different arena than they are…..and you must have overlooked the quote. That girl who went on twitter is excited like hell bout OPENING for BEYONCE..wanna know why? cuz they know what this could do for their career and the exposure they are gonna get from riding her tour. Dont ever forget it.

and like someone previoiusly stated for say you dont like bey you sure did spend a lot of time writin that

I LIKE THESE GIRLS. I REALLY DO. AND I’VE ALWAYS BEEN OF RICH HARRISON’S MUSIC SO I KNOW THEY ARE GOING TO COME HEAVY ON THEIR ALBUM.

JUST LIKE OTHERS STATED, I WAS SURPRISED TO HEAR THIS NEWS ABOUT THEM OPENING UP FOR BEY CUZ COINCIDENTALLY, THEY ARE LIKE A ‘09 VERSION OF DC, BUT I’M GLAD BEY RECOGNIZES. THESE GIRLS ARE TALENTED. PLUS SHE HAS A CLOSE WORKING RELATIONSHIP WITH RICH HARRISON, SO IT’S ONLY RIGHT.

THESE GIRLS BETTER BRING IT TOO!!! BUT I LOVE THEM. I THINK THEY WILL BE BIIIIIIG.

Ok now I am impressed, because I didn’t like their first single that was on here a few weeks ago. That was too much yelping. They sound pretty good acapella. Now if they make a good album, consider me a fan.

“LOL @ them being no Destiny’s Child like they were the ultimate female girl group. En Vogue, SWV, Brownstone, Xscape, Pure Soul, Ex-Girlfriend…they’re are too many to name (and that’s just groups from the 90’s). All these groups would DC out the water.”

I’m laughing with you. I knew it wasn’t just me. EnVogue’s and Brownstone’s harmonies were gorgeous. In fact, EnVogue still got the harmonizing on lock to this day.

I can sense talent here. Just need to hone their skills and become sharper and please don’t be singing this every chance they get. Switch it up, sing something else.

I like their look and their vibe. The first single was a scream fest indeed but it has a swagger to it.

I with them all the best. They sold me more than E. Red with the one whisperer as lead half the time.

I SWEAR BLACK WOMEN ARE SO NEGATIVE. This is part of the reason I date outside my race. Instead of supporting black celebs. Most of you are too busy putting them down. This group is really good. This site and (Sandra R) so many negative comments (from our own) .

Nice for Bey to GIVE BACK and choosing right.

On a bussiness level, it’s a smart move…this girls are bout to blow up and Bey is gon’be there to take some of the credit for putting them on.

On a personal level, Bey recognises that somebody (Wyclef) put them on when DC started out and you gotta keep doing that for the next in line.

I hate when this non-singing idiots round up together to put a “put the CD on play and let me lipsync” show with fireworks and ammergedon foolery to dumb people about their lack of talent. I’d rather see a talented singer do her thing…established or not.

Yes, I love these girls. Now I will go and get my ticket. They can really sing! Seven has an amazing voice and Lynn sounds just like Beyonce with the vocal training! I think they would do well. They needed exposure and now they are getting it! I know than can blow. I hope their preformance be good!

I take it back for saying they’re not like En Vogue..I must admit they’re voices are beautiful and based on this they do compliment each other (no one seems to overshadow anyone- which is what I’ve been waiting for from a 00’s group)

I still don’t like their video but can’t wait for their next video because I think I have fan potential..lmaaaaooo what a mess am I

I don’t know. They seemed not to be humbled enuf. They look too glammed. They do not harmonize well. Voices seem off a little. Destiny child and En Vouge got had that ON LOCK. Period.

Who are these chicks? Beyonce is on a budget? Recession hit Beyonce too that she got to get Rich Girl? Yes Beyonce may be on Forbes list, however she may not beiong able to keep enough in that what is going out. She may make it but there must be alot going out too….

i’m an electrik red fan - even though their voices aren’t as good as rich girls - they’re just more exciting….

i guess we’re back to the era of girl groups.
if it came down to it though, i’d choose electrik red.

These girls sound and look great!!!

They should reduce some of the runs, it’s overdone and that’’s played and doesn’t sell much music anymore…Monica singing with KC in “Trust”…is a good example of showcasing vocal ability, with lite runs and not overpowering lyrics. All singers should reach back and tackle “phrasing”….sing along with “Ella” into their own styling..i.e. Chrisette Michele….that’s what’s missing from music…inflection and great tonality…some minor vocal tweaking and these girls will capture a major market share…the buying public is consciously and unconsciously demanding original, soul-stiring music, not just some vocals laid across tracks with similar or familiar hot beats and catchy hooks, sold with soft porn videos…there is no magic in this formula…because it’s a familiar sound, people will listen, but black people aren’t going to neccessarily go out and buy. We’re not that kind of “fan.” Even the marketing strategy of creating a “music experience” for consumers will get old and not be effective…the record companies have to allow artists the room to fail, meaning low record sells without getting dropped to change the taste of today’s music that’s not capturing the heart s and propelling people to go out and buy music, not for the masses…you’ll have a few like Mariah, Alicia and Beyonce who can do the numbers, but they can’t generate enough sales to save this industry from record losses. It’ll take a minute…Quincy Jones says it takes 20 years or a generation to change a culture and to change mediocre music, it’ll take some time. Gimmicks and marketing ploys only work for so long, real music and giving artists their freedom would proved very profitable over the long term. People not buying means they’re not buying crap! Even appealing to “Pop, Gospel and Country” genres will become over saturated…it’s basic economics…so as black fans or stans allow artists to be individuals and express their creativity without the “who’s the best” or who jacked who,” the more music will be sold. Idolatry is flattering, but your own self-worth is more empowering! “You’re worthy simply because you were born!” As a woman, black, white or other, you are challenged to just have a place in a man’s world.

PPL PLEASE stop comparing Beyonce to every artist who makes some noise and generates a buzz…this is a great opportunity for this new group and she needs them every bit as much as they need her!

It’s marketing and a splendid move on her team’s part!!!

There’s always someone better than you at what you do, that’s life.

Janet didn’t have strong vocals, so being the best is subjective and not important! No one has topped her catalogue of music and videos in terms of making timeless music, turned into instrumentals by smooth jazz artists, some of the best videos and concerts ever, huber sexy with her clothes ON and never sold a soft drink or a fragrance and still ranked high on previous Forbes list, I know number 7 in 2007 or 2008, go figure! Since then she hasn’t been working much, enjoying her life after she fell off. So let these girls have their shine because they do shine! I love their video and they’re simply gorgeous. They remind me of a mix of The Spice Girls, Pussycat Dolls and Destiny’s Child with cast of Envogue (the had best harmonies from last two decades) with a little more fine tunning and a playfulness like TLC…Richgirl is working it!!!

I love these girls and am so proud of them. I think they are four talented girls who are using their God given talents to make an honest living. It’s sucks that new acts constantly have to be compared to the greatest. I don’t think they are trying to be like them, but instead follow the path that ones before them have laid and within time develop into superstars. GO RICHGIRL! CONGRATS!

145.

OMG!WTF!

Thursday, June 18, 2009 /

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSS! They betta fawking SANG! OMG! Their harmony is tight as hell…………PLEASE EVERYONE STOP COMPARING THEM TO DESTINY CHILD……These girls harmony way surpasses DC harmony! People need to take it back to HUMMMMMMMMMMM………..do i hear an “ENVOUGE” comparison. Yes i think so!

I understand what everyone is saying about Richgirl not being En Vouge or Destiny’s Child. I don’t think that’s what they’re aiming for anyway. Why can’t we just enjoy a girl group that is still together and can actually sing? If you’re going to try and compare them to someone, compare them to Electrik Red. And if they did sound just like En Vouge or Destiny’s Child, people would still be upset. Look at how people react to Lyndrinette who “favors” Beyonce. Just saying
