Hey friends! Just a little disclaimer - some of the opinions shared in this episode might come across as a little bold, a little sassy, or even a little tough love... but trust us, it's all coming from a place of love. We just want to keep it real, have some fun, and maybe even challenge a few perspectives along the way, but always in the spirit of good conversation. The views shared in this episode are just the personal takes of the people chatting - they don't necessarily represent the producers or anyone elses.

From potential collabs to endorsement deals and even a fashion line, En Vogue had their fingers in more pies than we knew! Despite flirtations with partnerships in the beauty and fashion industries, including an endorsement with Maybelline and a proposed fashion line with designer Byron Lars, fate had other plans.

Welcome back, Part of Us tribe. This week we're exploring a pivotal moment in En Vogue's career with their 2004 album 'Soulflower.' Looking into the background, we discuss the transformations the group went through, including lineup changes and shifts in musical direction amidst the evolving R&B landscape of the early 2000s. With Cindy and Terry taking on executive producer roles, 'Soulflower' marks a significant shift towards a more mature, neo-soul sound, reflecting both the industry's changes and the group's own evolution. Did we like this change in direction? Listen to find out. We also dissect the album track by track, examining how En Vogue blended neo-soul influences with their signature style. From the opener "Losin' My Mind" to "Stop" to the cover of "I Do Love You (Piece of My Love)," and "New Day Calling" each song on the album offers a unique perspective on love, life, and resilience. We also address listener feedback, discussing the absence of Maxine and Dawn and speculating on how their presence might have shaped the album's dynamics.

We had the opportunity to interview choreographer and director Frank Gatson Jr. During his career, Frank has served as the creative director for many artists, including En Vogue, Jennifer Lopez, Usher, Destiny's Child, Toni Braxton and Beyonce. Frank is now partnering with the YWCA Southeast Wisconsin to create a reimagined YWCA. The Intergenerational Performing Arts and Athletics Center (IPAAC), a 70,000 square-foot facility, will be located in his hometown of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and will offer movement & dance, athletics, singing, career expos and state-of-the-art studios. In celebration of the center's launch, Gatson will host the YWCA Gala and Awards ceremony on Wednesday, December 28, at the Marcus Performing Arts Center to raise funds. En Vogue, Brandy and Luke James will be among some of the artists performing. During our in-depth conversation, we discussed Frank's dance history and his involvement in IPAAC. We also discuss how he first met Cindy Herron, how he became En Vogue's longtime choreographer, the EV5 reunion, and so much more. This is only part one of our conversation. Keep an eye out for part two when Part of Us returns next year. We dive even deeper into everything En Vogue.

In house, in reggae, in rock, En Vogue! In this episode, we're diving into En Vogue's sophomore album, Funky Divas, a chart-topping success straight out the gate. The group's second album saw them experimenting with rock, house, pop and even reggae while keeping those pristine harmonies we love so much. Funky Divas solidified En Vogue as household names, and as Michelle Bacon of bridge909.org said: "...throughout the '90s, the songs on this triple platinum-certified album were inescapable. They permeated every station on the dial, saturated every shopping mall, every school dance, every club. As a primary driving force of the modern-day girl group, En Vogue represented a shift in pop culture driven by female empowerment, sex positivity and independence."
