The hit Bravo series brings together fan favorites and legendary groups SWV and XSCAPE, giving viewers a few behind-the-scenes looks from the lives of the members. They were also given glimpses of the groups trying to make working together feasible.


Issues of co-headlining continue on SWV & XSCAPE: The Queens of R&B

Tonight's episode of SWV & XSCAPE: The Queens of R&B, the cast members were preparing to hit the stage together on their tour while also navigating the nitty gritty of the issues in place. It created a lot of drama, keeping viewers hooked.

The official synopsis of the episode, titled Top Billing, reads:

"SWV and Xscape finally decide which group will headline their show as planning for the collaboration of a lifetime begins; LaTocha still hasn't told Xscape that she's shopping a solo deal, however."

The Queens of R&B episode began with the cast members discussing the setlist and the creative process, led by Tamika Scott. They began to think about the lights and other stage aspects with the combination of their songs. As the star was explaining the process and the dynamics of the tour, Coko from SWV hit them with the difficult question that they were all trying to avoid.

Coko said:

"I do have a question. Have we figure out, are we headlining, co-headlining what's going on?"

The Queens of R&B castmates kept looking at each other and smiling. Coko explained that before they went ahead with planning the tour, they wanted to clarify whether one group was taking the headlining lead or if both the groups were joining forces to co-headline.

The SWV members thought it would be best to co-headline considering it was going to be a historic performance. When the XSCAPE group asked Kandi Burruss, the star noted that she would go ahead with whatever the group thought was okay. Fellow member LaTocha took over the conversation.

The Queens of R&B cast member decided that both the groups should co-headline the tour. However, this didn't sit well with the XSCAPE group members as they had previously rallied to singlehandedly headline. They were seemingly disappointed with LaTocha's statements.

In a confessional, Kandi said:

"LaTocha is so funny. Speaking on behalf of the group. My group members had told me that they all felt we should be headliners. But I'm not gonna sit up here and let her try to make it seem like "Oh Kandi is the one with the problem, so she's the savior." Girl, bye!"

Fans react to Kandi's comments on SWV & XSCAPE: The Queens of R&B

Other fans also slammed Kandi for the thought process. They also felt that co-headlining would make more sense since both groups were popular.


SWV & XSCAPE: The Queens of R&B has only begun and has already gotten interesting. As the season progresses, both groups will get into even more complicated dynamics, which will cause more friction and drama, keeping fans hooked. Viewers will have to stay tuned to witness all of it.
