<p><strong>Kandi Burruss</strong> is not jealous of <strong>LaTocha</strong> <strong>Scott</strong>. The <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/4-three-xscape-changes-name-xcsap3-sign-caa-management-without-kandi/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Xscape singer</a> addressed the long-standing narrative on her YouTube earlier this week.</p>
<p>Her 50-minute <em>Speak On It </em>show highlighted episode two of <em>SWV &; Xscape: The Queen of R&;B</em>&#8211;during which Scott suggested Kandi is and has been a hater.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Here&#8217;s another thing that I didn&#8217;t like. Okay, so I have to address this on <em>Speak On It</em> because this has been said for years and it annoys me. I didn&#8217;t like that Tocha tried to allude that I had something to do with her damn solo project not coming out,&#8221; Kandi said. &#8220;That annoys me. I feel like Tocha blames me for everything that has gone wrong in her life and I do not understand why.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Kandi admitted that they always have butted heads. Still, she insisted she doesn&#8217;t like being blamed for situations she&#8217;s not around for.</p>
<p>On the <em>Bravo TV </em>show, LaTocha claimed Kandi developed a resentment because she often sang lead throughout their group career. She conversed with her husband, <strong>Rocky Bivens</strong>, who said Scott and Kandi <em>&#8220;have just never been on the same page.&#8221;</em></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;She was a young woman, you know, trying to make her way, and there were times when I would sing a song and she would just have a fit: &#8216;Oh why is she singing all the lead? Are you trying to set her up for a solo project? and Jermaine would be like, &#8216;No&#8217; and so I think that developed a resentment,&#8221; Scott said.</p></blockquote>
<p>Burress addressed that claim on <em>Speak On It </em>by listing the songs she sang lead on from their first two albums.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;This has been said multiple times by her, and I guess other people&#8230; that I was so jealous, and I made it so hard for her. That the reason why she had to go solo and said that I was so jelaous of her singing lead,&#8221; Kandi stated before going through the song list.</p></blockquote>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Kandi Says LaTocha Prioritizes Xscape When Her Solo Music Career Is Stalled</h3>
<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time the &#8216;jealous narrative&#8217; has emerged between <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/kandi-burruss-says-xscape-would-beat-destinys-child-in-a-battle-of-the-hits/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LaTocha and Burress</a>. The pair of performers also discussed their beef on Xscape&#8217;s first reality show, <em>XSCAPE: Still Kickin&#8217; It. </em>At the time, Burress told Scott her problem was that Scott allegedly used their third album to set up a solo deal. LaTocha denied this&#8211;admitting she was <em>&#8220;caught between a rock and a hard place.&#8221; </em></p>
<p>But on <em>The Queens of R&;B, </em>Scott further suggested that Kandi was not happy with Scott&#8217;s decision to do a solo project. She also claimed that Burress told her she wasn&#8217;t returning to the group.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;For some reason, my project got shelved and then within that same timeframe, Kandi got signed and her album came out. It was a little odd, the timing of it all, &#8220;Scott said on episode two.</p></blockquote>
<p>As mentioned earlier, Kandi addressed that&#8211;saying it annoys her. Burress also accused LaTocha of only being invested in their group during downtime in her career. She also alleged that Scott makes the group a problem every time she does have a deal on the table.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;&#8230;But it really be because she has another opportunity where she feels like she don&#8217;t really need us anymore&#8230;when things are not going the way she wants them to go I guess personally with her personal music stuff then all of a sudden she got all the time in the world for Xscape but when she thinks she got a solo deal lined up or she got something else lined up. Now all of a sudden [LaTocha says] yeah I don&#8217;t know if I want to sing with y&#8217;all.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Burress doubled down on her <em>Speak On It </em>comments under <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CpydRk7skOz/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TSR&#8217;s repost</a> of her listing her leads. She wrote in the comment section:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;We got a lot a drama y’all… I’m sorry but I’m tired of the narrative being pushed that I was jealous of her. So I had to say how I feel. She has a beautiful voice &; I am not saying I sing better at all. What I am saying is that my voice is distinctive &; I hold my own &; I was not jealous of her. So stop it! We went into our third album knowing she was goin solo so yes I had a lot to say about it because our shit was falling apart. 30yrs later we still goin through the same shit. We’re a mess! That was a lot but f**k it.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
