Kandi Burruss, a singer-songwriter from the platinum-selling '90s R&B girl group Xscape (which also included sisters LaTocha and Tamika Scott, as well as Burruss' best friend Tameka "Tiny" Cottle).
Burruss is undeniably the most notable member from Xscape. Since the group parted ways in the late '90s, she had a somewhat successful solo singing career (her biggest hit: "Don't Think I'm Not") but has seen ever greater successes with songwriting. Along with Cottle (who's married to rap superstar T.I.), she wrote TLC's 1999 smash hit "No Scrubs." Burruss has also penned jams for Mariah Carey, Destiny's Child, Boyz II Men, Alicia Keys, and Faith Evans. The singer-songwriter has a daughter, 6-year-old Riley, from a previous relationship, and a boyfriend.

What in the world! Kandi Burress! I can't imagine how she would fall in line with the rest of the ladies, but I guess it remains to be seen. I also read yesterday that Big Poppa will be on the show as well. I have no idea when this season will begin airing but I will definitely be tuned in.
Hmmm... should be interesting. I think I read that she's married to a producer from ATL. Kim should be the one replaced because she was a HAM but I'll be tuned in too.
