TGT were a part of the original lineup for the Xmas Ball alongside RnB heavyweight Jodeci however due to unforeseen circumstances the group are now unable to provide the level of performance their fans deserve and will no longer perform at the event.
In a message to fans, Jodeci said: “We are so sad to not be able to make it to the UK to perform at the RnB Xmas Ball this season for our beloved British fans, we want to share our regret, but we will be back!”
Other acts apart of the orginal line up that remain unchanged are Pretty Ricky, Case and Horace Brown.
