More than a 15 years after Destiny’s Child made a splash in the pop music scene, their manager (and Beyonce’s father) Mathew Knowles is set to debut a new all girl group.Blushhh Music – made up of rappers Sunni and Bunni Ray and singer Tali – have an old school sound, and they said they’re nothing like their predecessors.“It’s very humbling, and we appreciate the comparison, but at the end of the day, we are Blushhh and we’re a hip hop trio,” Sunnie, 22, told BOSSIP. “We have a different sound than Destiny’s Child. But at the same time we are a girl group and we are managed by Mr. Knowles.”
But like Destiny’s Child, the Houston-based group said Knowles has been involved with their growth as artists every step of the way.From image to performance to artistry, Mr. Knowles has helped us through that process,” Bunni Ray said. “It’s encouraging to know you have someone like Mathew Knowles as a mentor there to help you.”The music biz Svengali discovered the trio at a music showcase a few years back, and began to coach them informally before signing them to his label, Music World Music, the ladies said. Knowles also manages Blushhh.“He said, ‘I see something in you guys,’” Sunnie recalled. “’I love your passion and I want to make you as big as Destiny’s Child.’”Since then, the ladies have been performing shows around Houston, and are now getting ready to drop their first album, “Old School Back: Past, Present & Future” in June.“We’re 90s babies,” Tali said. “We’re bringing that old school hip hop back. We’re going to trend set with that.

Vocalist Jacci McGhee was a background vocalist with Keith Sweat in the late '80s, and her duet with Sweat on "Make It Last Forever" reached number two on the R&B charts in 1988. She later issued her own LP, Jacci McGhee with John James, on MCA in 1992.
Jeff Barry discovered her singing in a group called the Tootsie Rock Revue and brought her to Spector’s attention. He changed her name to Jerri Bo Keno, and then he and Jeff wrote a song for her. “Here It Comes And Here I Go“ is a Country/Pop number that the producer turned into even more of a hybrid by setting it to a jerky rhumba beat and overlaying a sound effects track of someone stomping the Hell out of a plywood board. The resulting single was more than a little reminiscent of early Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons hits. While it certainly gets your attention in a hurry, “Here It Comes” never quite gels as a record. Right after the single was released, Ms. Bocchino admitted to Melody Maker Magazine that she "didn’t (even) touch the melody and had to do the vocal over and over again.” It‘s true, she never did come to grips with the melody, and that’s undoubtedly why the platter tanked. Too bad, because with someone like Ronnie Spector on lead vocals, it might’ve really caused a stir.
