10 2000s Pop Groups Who Are Due For A Comeback
Quick Links
In the final month of the decade, many people born between 1990 and 2000 are feeling quite nostalgic. Over the years, technology, social media, music, and trends have changed. But some of us are reminiscing about the good old days with layered clothing and old-school barrettes in our hair.
There’s no better way to tune into your emotions than with music. With the rising of Spotify and Apple music, finding the old favorites that we grew up with is a lot easier. Even with old artists taking the stage to sing some of their classics, we’re looking for some new sound from them. Here are 10 2000s pop groups that are due for a comeback.
Blaque
Some of you may remember this girl trio from their hit songs Bring It All To Me or 808. These were chart-topping songs that got this girl group’s name out there. At the time, their singles were so hot that the classic Kirsten Dunst film Bring It On had them hop on board as actresses.
These girls were on the scene until about 2004 when they called it quits. Unfortunately in 2012, a member of Blaque, Natina Reed was killed in a car accident at only 32 years of age. Natina’s legacy lives on in the art she left behind.
Outkast
This duo consisting of André 3000 and Big Boi is well known for its hit songs Hey Ya! And Ms. Jackson. They were iconic in the early 2000s and continued making music until about 2006.
The two split ways and continued on separate paths. Big Boi went on to release several solo albums. Although Outkast did perform in 2014, the two agreed it didn’t feel right. In an interview with Complex, André talks about the tour and says that he’s focusing on other projects and that there is no bad blood between these two artists.
Destiny’s Child
Arguably one of the biggest girl groups in the world at the time, Destiny’s Child held their place in the music industry individually as well as together. Even after the split, Beyoncé Knowles and Kelly Rowland continued to release chart-topping solo records.
The girls remained friends and have shared the stage to play some of their old songs for the 2013 Super Bowl half-time as well as Coachella 2018. Although they have not released any new music and the members continue to pursue their individual projects, Kelly Rowland has recently teased a possible reunion in 2020.
Sugababes
Sugababes were a popular British girl group that stayed around all throughout the 2000s. By 2005, the group had earned four UK number one singles. The trio had some issues with keeping members and had a few switches over the years.
The 2000s were huge on girl groups, especially in the UK, including All Saints and the Spice Girls. The Sugababes are classic and truly an ode to pop culture back in the days. The fall of Sugababes can definitely be pointed to their lack of consistency in the girls. Even their fans had a hard time keeping track of who was coming in or being booted out.
LMNT
If you counted all the boy bands who thrived in the 2000s music era, you’d need a third hand. LMNT is truly a blast from the past. This boy band created music for just a few years, leaving the scene in 2003. Their hit Juliet was number one on Radio Disney for eight weeks.
Member Matthew Morrison went on to be an actor post break up and is known for his role in Glee as Will Schuester as well as his other roles in other well-known television shows such as American Horror Story and Grey’s Anatomy.
Girls Aloud
Girls Aloud was a British girl group with a successful career until its last tour in 2013. Girls Aloud was a UK staple and made an impact on the music scene. Member Nadine Coyle took to twitter saying that she didn’t approve of the split and she had the best time with the other girls.
Nadine Coyle explained that the split was messy and she had no say in it. Cheryl has agreed to disagree. Cheryl made other arrangements outside of the band as a member of the judging panel on The X Factor UK.
Allstar Weekend
This band had its debut in 2008/2009 on the first season of Radio Disney’s The Next Big Thing. The band had a great response from the Disney community and in 2009, the group posted videos of them singing original content. The members did release music prior to 2010, but 2010 was the peak for this band’s career.
They went on to perform at Vans Warped Tour and eventually decided to completely rebrand. The band wanted to drop their Disney image and sound and that was the end of Allstar Weekend.
Big Time Rush
Big Time Rush was a 2009 foursome, jumping on the 2000s boy band bandwagon. The four boys had an immediate response and went on to their own Nickelodeon show thanks to their success. The band not only recorded four seasons of their hit show, but they also did tours and released full albums.
The boys split up in 2014, going their separate ways. With some married and some with kids, it’s hard to believe that just 10 years ago these boys were Nickelodeon stars. Their fan base still remains to this day, showing the impact this boy band had in the industry.
Panic! At The Disco
We can all agree that Brendon Urie is one of the most talented performers of the last two decades. Not only is he an amazing vocalist, but he plays the piano, guitar and has performed in live musicals. The original Panic! At The Disco was not Brendon Urie solo but included Ryan Ross, Spencer Smith, and Brent Wilson.
The band started off in 2004 and went on to have hit singles like I Write Sins Not Tragedies and Lying Is the Most Fun a Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off. Over the years, members have left the band, leaving Brendon Urie to carry the name all by himself. As much as we love the new Brendon Urie, an original Panic! At The Disco Reunion would make all of our hearts happy.
The Cheetah Girls
The Cheetah Girls was an iconic trio that dominated the Disney music scene from its debut in 2002 until 2008. With three hit movies and successful soundtracks, The Cheetah Girls were role models for many young girls. The group was all about friendship, empowering women and diversity.
Members Adrienne Bailon, Kiely Williams, Sabrina Bryan, and Raven Symoné were all different shapes, sizes, and ethnicities but they were all very talented. While all four girls went on to have very different careers, with Adrienne Bailon starring in hit daytime television program, The Real. The girls remained friends, meaning a reunion is definitely possible. The world is ready for a “cheetah-licious” comeback in the new decade.
