Its A Doggone Dirty Damn Shame How This Lady's Career Got Bombed!

Ms.Miki Howard

She along with Regina Belle, Mel'isa Morgan, Angela Winbush & Stephanie Mills could've had a spanning career and stoop up right there as Mariah & Whtiney's rivals.





If it weren't for her cameo in the movie Malcolm X I'd probably neva paid her any mind at all(simply coz I don't see much of her out-there in TV nor in radio).

I miss her sangin' ass so much sigh

Speaking of Malcolm X, while watching the credits roll last night,
Aretha's take on Donny Hathaway's Someday We'll All Be Free was killing me.

You know whats ironic tho?

Arif Mardin produced Donny's and had the fortune to produce Aretha's. Said that Donny would wild out arranging the session for ReRe.

For real?

I'm glad to hear this coz I heard all kind of shit about her hitting rock bottom HARD and how she didn't recover when her house burnt down fully with all of her belongings(including trophies and personal stuff,,,,etc etc).

I wish I could see a recent pic of her lol I still imagine her sporting that wild ass hair smile

Chaka! woot!

I really liked Miki Howard also. I always wondered if she just caught in the "you're over 30, and too heavy to show the crack of your ass in videos" mess and the industry just shoved her to the side.

A musician I've had the good fortune to have played with (a keyboardist) supposedly had a hand in producing some Miki Howard tracks for an upcoming CD. Don't know the release date, though.
