Unsung 2021
Morris Day — Sunday, March 21 You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

Definitely running out of shows. They are also bringing back Behind The music too I heard Huey Lewis is supposed to be one of the first ones though they had one that was almost two decades ago, but even BTM was running low on interesting stuff.

FINALLY The Jones Girls and Keith Washington. Long overdue! Two acts who definately have the criteria as being Unsung! Leela James, also. "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley

I interviewed Leela James long ago. She's a delightful woman. "  don’t really care so much what people say about me because it is a reflection of who they r." |

That's just it. Not many people have. He started out in the 90's with a boy group called Mista. As far as I know they had a song called Blackberry Molasses that got some airplay. He grew up and went solo in the mid 2000's. I remember barely he had a hit called Slow Down on his debut album. He came out with more material after that but I don't recall anything memorable. Don't laugh at my funk

Maybe they don't want to do it. Some performers have declined requests to do the show like Stephanie Mills. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

I don't blame her. Stephanie is hardly Unsung. Highly successful career in R&B all through the 80s. "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley

Neither is 95% of the acts that have Unsung episodes. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B.

He has one. He's in no way Unsung, Wayne is as mainstream as you can get. He's on TV every weekday on Let's Make A Deal.

I have got to find a way to watch the Jones Girls episode. I have seen some snippets. I had no idea there was so much dysfunction and fighting going on amongst them. "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley
