Cleopatra are an all-girl R&B group hailing from Manchester, England. Comprised of sisters Cleo, Yonah, and Zainam Higgins, the band made their official debut in 1998 with Cominâ Atcha! The album featured âCleopatraâs Theme,â their first Top 5 hit single, and was certified silver in the UK. The single was also released in the US via Madonnaâs Maverick Records and peaked at Number 16 on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. That year, they were invited to be the opening act for the Spice Girls on their Spiceworld Tour and also performed at the Vatican Christmas Carol Concert, with their rendition of âO Come All Ye Faithfulâ and âSilent Night.â Steppinâ Out (2000), recorded in the US with a list of top producers, received favorable reviews but didnât sell as well as its predecessor. âCome and Get Meâ was the only single off the album that charted, reaching Number 29 on the UK Singles Chart. After parting ways with Warner due to creative differences, Cleopatra remained inactive until 2005, when they reappeared for a one-off performance of Britney Spearsâ âHit Me Baby, One More Timeâ on ITV1. The trio would reappear once again in 2009 for a comeback show at the Embassy in London.
