*“SWV & Xscape: Queens of R&B,” a new Bravo reality show, is promising to be an entertaining drama, just judging by its trailer. In said trailer, both iconic music groups that ruled the airwaves in the 1990s, prepare for a critical concert event.
As the day of the concert gets near, the two groups keep clashing over who should get top billing.
“Here we go,” a frustrated Kandi Burruss is heard saying in the teaser as things heat up.
According to Bravo, the six-part series will “capture the highs and lows of their journey as they race against a ticking clock to create a career-reigniting concert. But can these strong-willed songstresses ever reach an accord? Not before sharing their most vulnerable moments and venturing beyond business to try healing the personal hurts that stand in the way of their futures.”
