DAVIDA, AMBEE, KEISHA, & ASHLEY

The four girls were dubbed “the female B2K”.

I remember seeing them on BET’s ACCESS GRANTED- SCREAM TOUR 2 or 3. I don’t know much more about them
other than the fact that they had a song titled “Virginity”, and a video to go with it.

I guess they were supposed to drop, but things didn’t go as planned. About 2 years ago I came across a myspace page for DAVIDA and I think she was living in Florida. I don’t know where the other girls are.
