.:flashback friday:.

initially formed in 1984, expose' had scored two hits on the dance charts and completely changed it's member line up. in 1987 they released their fourth single (the second for the new line up) let me be the one. the single became a hit across the board, charting high on the pop, dance and r&b chart. this is without a doubt my fave expose' joint. even as a kid it made me feel sexy -- although i didn'teven know what sexy was.

after failing to convince the world that she was a viable solo artist, nicole is back where we like her - with the pussycat dolls. unfortunately her ill choice of songs seems to have rubbed off on the group. here is their lead single when i grow up from their forthcoming sophomore album due out later this summer. they are slated to perform this noisy rodney jerkins produced mess on june 1 at the mtv movie awards. maybe i need to listen to this joint a couple of more times. what do you think of the tune?
