Sugababes Happy To Cross Over

Keisha Buchanan of Sugababes spoke with the Herald Sun about the group moving beyond simply being labeled pop. “It’s refreshing for us that we’re not put into a category,” Buchanan says. “Some people call us R&B, we won the MOBO award, which is for Music of Black Origin and is for R&B. People were arguing `Why are Sugababes there?’ But why shouldn’t we? We do R&B as well. It was refreshing when ‘Overload’ came out that no one knew what to call it. Was it indie? Was it R&B? Was it pop? That crossed us over from the beginning. That’s a good position to be in.”
