Xscape, the Atlanta-based girl group that launched the careers of Tameka ‘Tiny’ Harris, Kandi Burruss, LaTocha Scott and Tamika Scott was featured on TVOne’s ‘Unsung’ last night (July 8, 2015).
Kandi discussed the ‘Unsung’ episode briefly during our one on one a few weeks ago (click HERE if you missed that) and it seems that the dissension within the group is still alive and well.? Burruss hit the tweets earlier to reveal how she really felt about the episode, stating:
Check out Mama Joyce‘s hot new beach body!

The cat lady known as Claudia Jordan is no longer a ‘Real Housewife of Atlanta‘!!

But wait. I’ve also got a little bit of tea on who’s returning for season 8.

Kandi Burruss of The Real Housewives of Atlanta was kind enough to sit down with me for a one on one session about a week ago.
We discussed just about everything you can imagine… from her 3-part ‘Ski Trip’ spin off drama (which was resolved quite nicely in the finale – CLICK HERE if you missed that) to topics like Xscape (will there ever be a reunion?), and RHOA reunion show drama (what’s the beef between Kandi & Nene? Is she still BFF’s w/ Phaedra Parks?). Kandi?answered EVERYTHING!
For the record, I wanted to do this interview because I’d HEARD that Kandi was feeling some kinda way about some things that I’d said in some of my recaps this season.
