Ill-Fated Future Set For Sugababes 4.0??


There are various rumors going around that British girl-groupSugababes have been dropped from Jay-Z's 
music group Roc Nation, as the band's name have been pulled from the official website.

No official confirmations have been made but this rumor also comes amidst dismal sales of their current album, "Sweet 7," which in it's second week on UK charts has plummeted to #40, despite having three Top 10 
singles.

The Sugababes became a part of Jay-Z's Roc Nation in April 2009, when now ax-ed 
member Keisha Buchanan was still in the trio. The band now consists of Heidi Rage, Amelle Berrabah and Eurovision finalist, Jade Ewen.

For one, I hope that this is untrue because "Sweet 7" is an album full of potential hits. It would be rather exciting and interesting to see how the Babes 4.0 would do in the American market. I also think it's a bit soon to throw in the towel and axe the girls. The album is only on it's second week and there is always room for a rebound but on the flipside in this cut throat industry you only have so many chances.
