Does anyone remember her? She was in the New Power Soul band. That configuration didn't seem to last that long. Kat Dyson seemed to have disappeared rather quickly too. Or at least it seems that way. I think Kat is performing with Coed, but what happened to Marva?

GET DIARY OF A MAD BLACK WOMAN THE TYLER PERRY PLAY MARVA KING IS THE STAR OF THAT ONE. GREAT SINGER, HORRIBLE ACTRESS!!!!!REMEMBER THE PLAY NOT THE MOVIE!!!

Marva is doing quite well. Working on her new album.

Marva is the star? Are you sure about that? Isn't she marred to a cute actor?

and i will forever be indebted to Marva for picking me to dance with her during one of the Jam of the Year concerts.

Really? Oh, I've never seen any of Tyler Perry's plays or movies, so that's probably why I was unaware of that.

Thanks for the responses. Glad to know that she's doing well.

Marva attended the last 2 shows at 3121. Shelby brought her up to sing during Musicology that Friday. She's rocking a huge blonde afro and Prince says: "I KNEW she was soulful with a 'fro like!" Then she was at the show and aftershow on Saturday. She came up to the mic and sang on a couple songs during the aftershow. She looked great! BTW, my mom's name is Marva and it tickles me that hers is too.

SCRATCH THAT.....I AM THINKING OF MARVA HICKS.

MARVA KING IS RELEASING HER FIRST SOLO ALBUM SOUL SISTSA ON MAY 29TH IN THE U.K (WHICH WILL LATER BE RELEASE IN THE U.S.)SHE IS ALSO IN TALKS WITH 2 NETWORKS TO DO HER OWN COOKING SHOW.

I think she's had a few solo albums already. Looks like the first was Feels Right in 1981.

Believe it or not, but she was kidnapped by Ukrainian terrorists while touring in Europe. She's been released a few months ago but she decided 2 start a political carreer in order 2 become president of the USA & wipe Ukraine outta the map...
