 | | En Vogue is an all-female new jack r&b,club/dance,urban soul,vocal quartet assembled by the hit music producers Denzil Foster and Thomas McElroy(formerly of the disco group Club Nouveau).The members originally are former Miss Black California Cindy Herron(b.Sept.26,1965,CA,USA),Maxine Jones(b.Jan.16,1966,NJ,USA),Dawn Robinson(b.Nov.28,1968,CT,USA),and Terry Ellis(b.Sept.5,1966,TX,USA).The group was formed in Herron's homestate,California,in 1988. |
 | | Their story began when the production duo brainstormed on the concept of putting together a modern-day,original r&b girl group for the 90s.After Foster & McElroy studied various girl groups of the past, they chose to experiment with welding the female r&b/soul group heritage with hip-hop/new jack swing rhythms. |
 | | But Foster had a better idea,to write and produce an original,answer song called "Hold On". |
