Those of you who think your competitive-reality shows don’t have enough R & B freshness may want to start tuning into the new season of Survivor, which will feature SWV’s Tamara “Taj” Johnson-George among its contestants. The all-lady trio hasn’t put out a new album since its 1997 holiday tie-in A Special Christmas, but it’s still touring now and then; according to Johnson-George’s intro video, which is after the jump, she gave up playing a show with Bobby Brown, Johnny Gill, and Ralph Tresvant in order to pursue her dream of sweating out the competition on prime-time network TV. (Yes, they are touring now! Together! And calling themselves “The Summit”!)
Wonder how that “nice to your face, stab you in the back” attitude works out in the context of her group? Ahem. Anyway, I hope that the producers figure out a way to work “Right Here (Human Nature)” into some of the ads for the show, if only because it is awesome.

This news is making me weak in the knees…i can hardly speak…i’m losing all control…
Damn, I might have to watch.
I used to be a Survivor geek, until Mark Burnett’s race war season (which turned out to be a stiff, but still).
