Emeli Sandé working with original Sugababes
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 27 January 2012
While an official announcement on the Babes v.1 reunion is still not forthcoming, Emeli Sandé has confirmed that she has written new material for the original Sugababes line-up. As previously reported, Popjustice revealed the original Babes had reunited in the studio earlier this month.
Asked about rumours that she has been working with the group, Sandé told MTV: “Yes, that is true. I’ve written for the original line-up of the Sugababes, which I’m very happy about because I just loved them when they first came out. I loved their sound, it was so cool. It was very different, so I’m happy to kind of be involved in what started the whole Sugababes journey. It sounds amazing”.
Meanwhile, an unnamed source claimed in The Mirror recently: “The girls are very much back to their soulful roots, but this time around it’s far more innovative. They’ve recorded more tracks too – and they’re working hard to get a body of new work. Siobhan has left her job in the City and they are concentrating on getting material together for an album. They are very dedicated and it’s working well”.
It’s still not clear what the group plan to do about a name, given that the current Sugababes line-up is using theirs.
