En Vogue个人资料：

由Down Robinson、Terry Ellis、Cindy Herron及Maxine Jones所组成的En Vogue堪称九O年代最具影响力也最成功的R&B女子团体；这个成军于加州的女子四人合唱团，嗓音宽达四个音域，由于和声编排别出心裁加上亮丽耀眼的造型，带给九O年代R&B/Pop舞曲音乐一新的风格，一度最喻为九O年代的「The Supremes」。En Vogue自1990年出道后便以首张专辑「Born To Sing」缔造R&B榜冠军曲"Hold On"(并以此曲获得灵魂列车音乐奖「最佳单曲」)、"Lies"；92年的三白金专辑「Funky Diva」中更是拥有冠军曲"My Lovin (Never Gonna Get It)"及"Free Your Mind"、"Givin Him Something He Can Feel"、"Give It Up, Turn It Loose"等排行劲曲；同时她们也以此得到92年灵魂列车音乐奖「年度最佳艺人」及五项葛莱美奖提名。93年所发行的6首歌EP「Runaway Love」除收录" Runaway Love"外，还有与饶舌歌闻名的Salt-N-Pepa合作并获得MTV音乐奖「最佳R&B录像带」的"Whatta Man"。95年他们为电影【Set It Off】所演唱的主题曲"Dont Let Go (Love)"更是一举拿下亚军的席次、97年团员中的Down Robinson宣布离团发展个人事业，但变为三人组合的En Vogue依然发行了「EV3」专辑，请到Babyface、David Foster等重量级制作人助阵并炮制出"Whatever"、"Too Gone Too Long"、"Let It Flow"…等佳曲向乐迷证明全新的En Vogue并未解散。98年，En Vogue再度为电影【Why Do Fools Fall In Love？】演唱了一首动人抒情曲"No Fool No More"，也为她们的精选专辑营造绝佳的声势。听En Vogue的音乐，听到最佳的R&B歌曲。by Steve HueyThe female vocal quartet En Vogue was conceived and put together by the production team of Denzil Foster and Thomas McElroy, both former members of Club Nouveau. Foster and McElroy wanted a vocal group who could exude sultriness and intelligence in addition to vocal proficiency, and as producers, they wanted material that would fuse R&B and girl group traditions with hip-hop and new jack swing rhythms. The two held auditions and settled on a membership of former Miss Black California Cindy Herron, Maxine Jones, Dawn Robinson, and Terry Ellis. The new group performed two songs on Foster and McElroys FM2 album, and the producers crafted an image of them as stylish, sophisticated, and sexy. Originally called For You, the women switched to the more elegant Vogue, and then En Vogue after learning of another group with a very similar name.En Vogues debut album, Born to Sing, appeared in 1990 and launched the pop crossover smash Hold On, which peaked at number two and helped the album go platinum. The group attracted comparisons to the Supremes, even though groupmembers shared lead vocals and intentionally designated no particular singer the star. In between albums, Herron appeared in the film Juice. When En Vogue returned in 1992 with Funky Divas, critical and commercial response was overwhelming. The albums wide array of styles, from pop and R&B to rap, rock, and reggae, were lauded in print; the first three singles — My Lovin (Youre Never Gonna Get It), Giving Him Something He Can Feel (both covers of songs written by Curtis Mayfield), and Free Your Mind (which borrowed a chorus line from George Clinton) — reached the Top Ten, and the album went multi-platinum. En Vogue were in the Top Ten again in 1993, backing Salt-N-Pepa on their hit Whatta Man. As En Vogue was recording its third album, Dawn Robinson left the group. Before they released the record, Dont Let Go (Love), a song the group contributed to the Set It Off soundtrack, became a number two single in early 1997. Six months later, the band released their third album, EV3. The groups first compilation, The Best of En Vogue, was released in the summer of 1999. 2000 saw the release of Masterpiece Theater (originally titled Something New, Something Old, Something Borrowed, Something Cool) but immediately after an interview on BET the group was informed that they were dropped by their label due to slower than expected sales. In 2001 Amanda Cole was added as a fourth member but soon after Maxine Jones announced her desire to spend more time with her young daughter and departed. Returned to a trio, the group started touring again and in late summer Rhino released their second compilation, The Very Best of En Vogue. Things were quiet until the group returned at the end of 2002 with a contribution to the Deliver Us from Eva soundtrack and their first Christmas album, The Gift of Christmas, on a small, independent label Discretion Entertainment. Promotion for the album was so limited that only those who regularly visit En Vogue fansites were aware of it and to make matters worse, Amanda Cole left the group in the middle of 2003 for a solo career. A false rumor that Chanté Moore had joined the group proved untrue and talks with Dawn Robinson and Maxine Jones failed to bring either back to the group permanently. In September of 2003 the group appeared out of nowhere for a small European tour with Maxine Jones filling in temporarily for Cindy Herron (who had just had her fourth child) and a new member, Rhona Bennett, made her debut. Bennett had recorded an album as simply Rhona for Sony in 2001 (which included the hit Satisfied), and also had a recurring role on The Jamie Foxx Show. Jones and Herron traded places again and the new trio released Soul Flower in early 2004 on 33rd Street Records.
