Anjel - Heavenly (2003)

When original members of Destiny's Child, LeToya Luckett and LaTavia Roberson, left the group in 2000, they planned to form a new band called Anjel. They wanted a third member of the group, so Linda Casey, the mother of two members of Jagged Edge, held a talent search in Connecticut, and Natasha Ramos landed the gig. Due to personality differences, Ramos soon left the group, but before leaving she introduced them to Naty Quinones, who auditioned and was added in her place, and in 2001 Tiffany Beaudoin was introduced to them by a mutual friend, and joined after an audition. The new group made one live appearance in 2001 on 'Good Day, NY', where they talked about the album they were working on, and sang part of their song 'Missing You'. They recorded 22 songs for their album in Atlanta, with the assistance of Jagged Edge, and were preparing to release it on Columbia Records through Jagged Edge's production company 581 Productions. However, Jermaine Dupri's leaving Columbia Records caused problems with 581 Entertainment, and while these business issues were being sorted out, the individual members of Anjel decided to look into other projects. Before the issues could be resolved, 581 Records folded in 2003 and the album was cancelled, leading to the break-up of the group. Since the break-up, Beaudoin has appeared on Jagged Edge's 2003 album, 'Hard', while Luckett signed to Capitol Records in 2004 and released her platinum selling debut solo album in 2006. Quinones, now going by the name Nativida or Nati Q., still works with Phar-City and is on an independent label, Soul-Empire, while Natasha Ramos signed to Star Trak in 2005, recording an unreleased album of her own with the Neptunes in 2006. Here are twenty of the songs that the final track listing of their album would have been chosen from had it not been cancelled, and you can hear that Luckett and Roberson put their experience with Destiny's Child to good use on the sessions.
