Black History Month honors the great Black Female vocalists
Thursday at 9:38 am
Yesterday we looked at some of the greatest Black male vocalists of all-time. Today we check their female counterparts.
The final list was whittled down from a group of more than thirty great performers. They also included Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey, Chaka Khan, Patti Labelle, Donna Summer, Gladys Knight, Dionne Warwick, Roberta Flack and Dinah Washington.
Here’s the list of twelve of the best Black female singers.

My so called friends think it’s time to edit this section. After four years, they may be right, but don’t tell them that. I’ll deny it until they die!
I can’t believe I’ve been writing this blog for four years.
It started as a health/wellness thing and over the years has morphed to include so many things that I don’t know how to describe it anymore.
I really thought this was going to be the final year of the blog but then Donald Trump came along. It looks like we’re good for four more years..God help us all!
Oh yeah…the biographical stuff. I’m not 60 anymore. The rest you can read about in the blog.
