     Pic Cred via Facebook, Cherish. Remember the all-girl group Cherish? Have you ever wondered what happened to them? If so, then you are not alone. Cherish, first appeared on the music scene in 2003, with Da Brat on her single ” In Love With Chu”. After their debut on that song, the group, made up of sisters; Fallon, Felisha, Farrah, and Neosha, decided to drop their debut single “Miss P” in July of 2003, but the single wasn’t received greatly by fans in the US and barely made it onto the Hot R&B/ Hip-Hop Songs Chart. Due to this setback, the group’s album was never released.Although having this setback, the group persisted on making it big in the music industry. They were featured on The Powerpuff Girls Movie soundtrack with the song “Chemical X”. In 2006, the group made the ultimate comeback with their hit single/ club banger “Do it, to it”. The song peaked at number 10 on US R&B Charts. With this spark finally came their debut album; Unappreciated. This album was ranked number 4 on Billboard’s Top 200 albums. The group released their second single also titled “Unappreciated”. Cherish reached major success with the singles and the debut of their first album but with success comes struggle. In 2008, they released their second album; The Truth, but it didn’t make it to the top 20 on the music charts and the release of their single “Killa” featuring Yung Joc, made it to the Top 40 music charts. The band dismembered after that due to sibling rivalry and friction.Now these days, both Felisha and Fallon write songs for other artists such just Tamar Braxton, Sevyn Streeter and Jacob Latimore.  The twins also have a song on their SoundCloud page as well. Hopefully, we can see a Cherish reunion one day, but as for now, all we have are great music from them for us to enjoy.https://youtu.be/pehLkVZV4cY  https://youtu.be/tbPqVMbT34Q

    There’s no secret that this country is trying to place a serious ban on illegal immigrants, thanks to the new administration in charge. With all of the tension in the air, there is one person who is using her talent to help change the outlook of immigrants within the United States. Former Fifth Harmony singer, Camilla Cabello has decided to make her voice heard about immigration issues by writing a love song about immigrants. This song will not only chronicle the life of an immigrant’s journey to United States but it will explain her and her family’s own journey. In a recent interview with Glamour magazine, Cabello and her mother Sinuhe, talked about their journey from leaving their country of Cuba, flying to Mexico and eventually settling in Miami when Cabello was six years old. It was because of this journey, that Cabello started a new journey of her own, in beginning to write an immigration love song. 

    I want to make a love song for immigrants. That word, immigrant, has such a negative connotation— I can just imagine all the little girls who have dreams of coming here and feel unwanted. It inspires me in my music to do my best to give [them] the light that I have.”

    “I want to be what people think of when they think of America — a person who, no matter what her first language was or what her religion is, can see her dreams come to life if she works hard enough.
