Xscape are transitioning.
The R&B ensemble staged a successful comeback – comprised of a reality show and reunion tour. And while most members are keen to keep the nostalgia going, Kandi Burruss has revealed that she has other commitments.
Undeterred, the rest of the group – Tiny, Tamika, and LaTocha – are pressing on as a trio.
To punctuate their point of difference, the ladies have announced a name change.
Full story below…
Ahead of the release of their new EP ‘Here For It’ on March 3rd, the group have revealed that they will now go by Xscap3 for all things related to their work as a trio.
In wasting no time formalising the change, it’s been confirmed that the three have signed with CAA (Creative Arts Agency) for representation and that their project will be released via Xscap3 Entertainment.
Interestingly, the door is being left open for Kandi to pop in as her schedule permits. Something that will be happening at this year’s Essence Music Festival – where Xscape will regroup as a quad.
Clearly, it’s all love because the ‘Real Housewives Of Atlanta’ star posted the following in support of the news:
It’s great to see the ladies proceed in a mature fashion.
We’re just hopeful that they don’t lose any of the momentum they’ve built up over the last year.

I can appreciate their on their grind whilst Kandi is doing Broadway… It would’ve been great if they remained as a foursome.
This happened 3/4 days ago. You could’ve posted this while y’all were posting all those pointless JT post back to back and boring ass articles.
I agree.
XSCAP3 = BO$$ MOVES
They should have just keep the original name I don’t see the point in the name change but good luck to them.
Name change- As long as their XSCAPE Kandi will get paid . So they changed the name to XSCAP3 which mean she will not see a dime of that money that they make as a trio. If they would have kept the regular name the money would have to be split 4 ways . $$$
Interesting, thank you for that.
Keon,
You do make interesting point. While I certainly hear you, I guess when I see Cindy, Max and Terry function under the name EnVogue without Dawn, i kinda am unsure.
I think if Kandi signed her name of Xscape (of which i think she did, remember she got mad when they added her name to business dealing), then the 3 members could retain the original name. I have a feeling it might be something else for the name change.
On LaTocha’s live Tamika said Xscap3 sound will be different from XSCAPES sound .. I guess Xscap3 will be more “today” .. she said Xscap3 is the alterego of Xscape kind of what BBD was to New Edition .. confusing , but I can’t wait until they release Memory Lane tomorrow ..
they need to change their name to hang it up
I don’t see the point of a name change, just release a video for dream killa and the EP already.. we’ve waited long enough

It’s about business. They are technically considered a different group with the just 3 of them. Splitting profits 3 ways instead of 4. Kandi will be inactive but she is still part of Xscape (if she decides to tour with them). I need them to book JD in the studio asap so that they create bangers. None of the new songs are it.
i would’ve loved to see the 4 of them do new music together, but ultimately kandi has other priorities and i can’t blame her for that.
Remember Kandi wasn’t apart of the trio for years & they didn’t make good music to be purchased I hope the fans that hated Kandi so much support Xscap3 as well!!
