I don’t know about you but back in the day I was a huge fan of the girl group Xscape and when they broke up I was so hurt. I remember hearing the rumors behind their break-up and being so disappointed…. thinking to myself “not another great group broken up because of drama”. According to former member of Xscape Tameka, Kandi was the culprit responsible for the dismantle of the group. A few years ago, Tameka went on Hot97 and said that Kandi slept with producer Jermaine Dupri and that’s when things begin to take a turn for the worst.
Recently during an interview with radio host Angela Yee, Kandi decided to finally open up about being involved with Jermaine Dupri and how she felt about Tameka blasting her on the the radio.
Kandi on having sex with Jermaine Dupri
“But just like anybody, sometimes you can work with people and you be like, hmm I wonder how he is in the bedroom, you know, and you just try it out… we hung out, we was friends, like playing pool, talking trash and then you know you hear somebody say yeah I’m a beast, I’m this, I’m that, you know how you can be around your friends talking about sex or whatever and then you be thinking like, I wonder is it that good, you know? Let’s be realistic, it wasn’t me trying to get anything out of the situation. We already had hit records. We already had hits. It wasn’t like I was trying to do it to get somewhere. It was just out of curiosity.”
On her reaction to Tameka Scott blasting her on the radio
When she did that it was really kinda foul to me and that’s really the reason why I would never go back to the group because when somebody just straight lies…and then she tried to add some whole other stuff that was totally false. When I had talked to her after it happened and she called to apologize to me, I said you know what, you call and apologizing to me but you went on radio in NY to say this about me so everything that you put out there, nobody knows you apologizing right now. Apologize publicly if you want me to take this seriously. Don’t say it to me after you done put all this craziness out there about me.”
Hmmmm…honestly I don’t think that Jermaine Dupri would be someone that I would be curious about…but hey whatever floats your boat. I’m surprised that she didn’t just deny the incident all together. On the other hand, I don’t know… I’ve never met the man and I’m thinking if he got Janet Jackson maybe there is something about him when you meet him in person that makes the physical disappear. Whatever it is, it broke up a group at the height of their career…now that’s a mess!
