seriously though, i'd rather have people learn about artist then have the same ole same ole's get added attention.

Oh oh oh oh oh...I got a good one. Sylvester. Not that it would ever happen.

sosgemini said:

Yesssssuh!

I would def be glued into the TV set for that one

I don't know if Grace Jones could be Unsung,,,but that woman is in desparate need for a biography special.

I have already said Sylvester should be profiled. Why wouldn't he be?
Miki Howard and Angela winbush-what issues have they had-see to me, the miki howards, vestas, regina belles etc.-they all blur into one for me. Nothing distinctive about them at all.

Angela Winbush has quite a history,,,she was a Wonderlove, big time R&B producer of the 80s and the drama she went with Rene Moore & Ron Isley that qualify for the special I guess not to mention, her fight with breast cancer.

Plus she has a couple of hits under her arm too(per4med by her, or covered by other artists).

I've sat my heart for a Ms.Winbush special and I hope it gets made.

Cause that evil woman runs TVOne and black folk don't seem to like to talk about our people being gay cause then people might start to realize our church singers and Tylor Perry are about as queer as a dollar bill.

sosgemini said:

UGH!

I'll be SO glad if Cathy Hughes retired from interviewing The woman is annoying beyond belief.

And is it me, or is the only feedback you'll get from her is "Uh uh, oooooh okay, yes, uh uh ooooh okay, yes, uh uh,,,,to infinity"

I enjoyed the Dick Gregory special, but the whole time I was watching it, I was praying for a toothache to shut her the fuck up.

Make no mistake though, I respect her as a business woman.

They talked about Bobby Debarge dying of Aids. I think Sylvester would be a good candidate
What's a Wonderlove? Sounds like a bra

scriptgirl said:

Stevie Wonder's band.

Harlepolis said:

I don't, not after the sh*t she pulled re: artist royalities...

scriptgirl said:

Didn't he die of aids caused by drug addiction...either way, talking about dying of aids is totally different then celebrating an out and proud queer legend...i would hope black media folks would be tolerant enough to honor Sylvester but I just don't see it...yet.

sosgemini said:

And it's a shame because Sylvester was a special performer.

Timmy84 said:

Was it known Sylvester was gay?
I say Jennifer Holliday should get an Unsung

scriptgirl said:

Holliday is a good one. Yes, it was common knowledge that Sylvester was qay.

Oh oh oh, speaking of gay icons: Meshell Mutherf*cking Ndegeocello!!!

Meshell is not an Unsung ep
What about tower of power
Average White Band
Betty Wright

LittleBLUECorvette said:

Blue Magic
Leroy Hutson
Stylistics
Delfonics

Who is Blue Magic?

scriptgirl said:

Don't break my heart.

Hey, she's had less success then Shalamar and has had to deal with mental and emotional issues...I think she would qualify.

Bettye Levette is the epitome of unsung.

Meshell is too current, I think
Who is Betty levette?

The Sylvers (of course )
Cherly Lynn
Brownstone
Sherrick
The Emotions
Angela Bofill

Force MD's
The Time
The Boys
Tevin Campbell

The Boys-I don't think so
And if they aren't going to so Sylvester, they damn sure won't do Tevin
I think they shouldn't cover anyone from the 90s. Too recent

sosgemini said:

I understand but Donna Allen is so obscure you probably couldn't
find her music in the dollar bin at your record store.
Alyson Williams would have a better shot and she don't have a
shot in hell either.

sosgemini said:

That's not what I meant silly.

THe other Jermaine, Jermaine Stewart.
