Sugababes

London pop trio Sugababes displayed grit and determination in overcoming obstacles that would have felled countless others, deftly negotiating three potentially career-threatening line-up changes and being dropped by their first label. Their fusion of contemporary urban beats and classic soul eventually won over fans and label execs alike, and the 'Babes emerged as a hugely successful pop act in the U.K. in the early 2000s. In October 2005, TALLER IN MORE WAYS, the girls' fourth full-length, became their first to top the U.K. album chart.
