Legendary bands who’d break the internet with a comeback album

Gwen Stefani has gone full pop-country, but we deeply miss the ska-punk energy of the original crew—and so does everyone else. 

They’re still making music, but let’s be real—it’s not the same without the Duchess. We need Fergie to return for a classic lineup album so we can finally get the "Fergalicious" energy back where it belongs.

A surprise return from the French house legends would send us all spiraling into a dance frenzy. 

Tyler, the Creator and Frank Ocean have become massive solo superstars, which makes the idea of the whole Wolf Gang getting back together feel impossible. But if they chose to drop a reunion project, it would certainly do numbers.

"We Are Young" was the anthem of an entire generation's high school experience. We need Nate Ruess and Jack Antonoff to stop producing for everyone else and get back into the studio to give us one more theatrical, indie-pop masterpiece to scream in the car.

Andre 3000 is off playing his flute in the woods, but the world is still waiting for the ATLiens to return. A new album from the duo would be an iconic moment in hip-hop culture everyone would be talking about. 

We know they said goodbye, but there is a sea of fans who would do anything to get that raw garage rock energy back. Seeing Jack and Meg reconcile for a new record would be the ultimate rock redemption story.

The reunion tour was a spiritual experience, but the Emo Kingdom is still waiting for the full rock opera comeback album for old times' sake. 

They were the cool, futuristic R&B trio that gave us classics like "Bring It All to Me." A tribute comeback honoring the late Natina Reed, while bringing back that distinct Y2K sound, would have us feeling deeply nostalgic and ready to stream it on loop.

Let's be real—what iconic band didn't have a little bit of drama behind the scenes? We are dying to see Nicole Scherzy and the dolls deliver high-octane pop bangers and the most dramatic choreography we've ever seen once more. 

Now that they’ve all had solo moments, the time is ripe for the ultimate "Work from Home" reunion. Even if Camila decided to stay away, seeing the quartet featuring Ally Brooke, Normani, Dinah Jane, and Lauren Jauregui back on stage would be an iconic moment in pop culture history. 

"Making the Band" gave us one of the most talented (and dysfunctional) girl groups in history, and we miss them. Now that three of them are currently on tour, seeing a fully reunited lineup dropping club anthems would be the full-circle moment that reality TV (and "Damaged") fans deserve.

Before the "No More" memes, Naturi, Adrienne, and Kiely of 3LW were legitimate R&B princesses. Now, we know there's no chance of this ever happening, given the group's tense history. But at least we can dream!

We’ve survived on breadcrumbs like the Coachella and Cowboy Carter Tour performances and random Instagram pics for too long. If Beyoncé, Kelly, and Michelle announced a full studio album, there is no doubt that the trio would shatter records just as they did in the '90s. 

Justin Timberlake gave us a taste with the  Trolls song, but we don't want a soundtrack single—we want a full album. Seeing the five of them together, with updated frosted tips and harmonies, would instantly heal our inner child.

We’ve seen the tours with the core four, but a true comeback album needs Posh Spice to put down the fashion sketchbook and pick up the microphone. Getting all five distinct personalities back on a tracklist is the girl power moment fans are desperate for.

A comeback album today would hit even harder now that the group has been on an "indefinite hiatus" since 2016. 

We know the drama behind the scenes was messy, but that just makes us want the reunion even more. If Raven, Adrienne, Kiely, and Sabrina put their differences aside for one more album, velvet tracksuits would certainly make a comeback. Call it silly, but this would heal many Gen-Zers souls.
