This week’s That Grape Juice Cover Star (s) are R.T.I. The London-based trio – consisting of Raqual, Tina, and Ivy, serve up a rousing medley of Jackson 5 hits ‘Who’s Loving You’ and ‘I Want You Back’ – with an Envogue-esque flare.
Check out their showing below:
Home-run! With the commercial Urban music scene in dire need of raw talent (especially here in the UK), it’s so refreshing to see a group who possess it by bucket-load. Powerful vocals, tight harmonies and the all-important ‘look’, the ladies (aged 21-18) have it all.
If there’s one niggle, it’d be that their take on ‘Who’s Loving You’ pretty much wiped the floor with their rendition of ‘I Want You Back’ (which, comparatively, was a little flat in places). Still the ladies nailed the performance overall and certainly are ones to watch out for!

NICE!
We need a good Vocally POWERFUL female RnB/PoP group right about now.
Ivy looks like keisha buchanan…lol
they auditioned on the xfactor some years ago…..hmm…girl groups never go far on that.
You guys swear you are some vocal coaches…why won’t you sing something. All that wasn’t even needed .
Nice. I guess
AWWW THEY REMINDS ME OF DESTINY’S CHILD………….. VOCALS IS ON POINT ,GOOD HARMONIES ….MARK MY WORDS THEY GONNA BE BIG (WW)..#JUSTSAYING
Very true indeed that ‘raw’ talent is needed in a rather BLAH industry landscape. These ladies pack a solid punch that with both some tweeking and the ever-so-popular GLOSSING (where the average joe goes IN and comes OUT as if from the pages of VOGUE itself!) they will be a serious SUCCESS. Their vocals are great, and their camaraderie makes for a fabulous image of girlfriends who actually get along, work along, and sing-a-long TOGETHER. Ladies, here’s to your future. xxo
Uhhhhhm Im not feeling them. Theyre trying too hard. No Offense. Just being honest…they need to STAY in the UK lol
that was fantastic, if i was simon cowell i would sign them asap, they are very talented…

These are the same girls auditioning for X Factor in 2008. I think they got shown in 2009 but they didn’t make it past the judges that time.
they betta muthafuckin sang!!!!!!!!
They can sing expecially the girl with the full fring…. I don’t remeber seeig them on X-Factor then again they never show people that can actually sing
YAAAAAAAAS
That was AWESOME
I was not expecting that at all.
I LOVE IT…they need to get sighed like now.they have mad talent.
@Venessathevinylbox
yes they were on x-factor back in 2008 http://www.youtube.com/user/RTIMUSICTV#p/a/f/1/oYAGzPpbw8M
I cant really hear anybody but En Vogue singing that. Anyway, thought i recognised them and looked at the xfactor video which was good. Good luck to them.
wow they’re good. Liking them
They are talented!!!
Go to the US girls! You see what happened to the likes of Alexandra, Alesha & Terri Walker to name a few. Unless you’re happy with singing nursury rhymes…they have no clue what to do with blk females!!!
“Who’s Loving You” was a Smokey Robinson & The Miracles song…
they sound good and all of them can sing, I just hope one person dont do all the singing like that other girl group. Anyway hopefully they;; bring something new to the industry if they get signed
