Episode 76 - Getting To Know Singer/Songwriter Angie Stone

I had the opportunity to interview one of the true legends in music, Ms. Angie Stone. We discussed her latest gem, "Love Language" which she compares to her classic 2001 Grammy nominated album "Mahogany Soul". In addition to discussing her upbringing in South Carolina, she also talks about almost quiting the music business and much more. Angie is a singer, MC, actress, self-taught keyboardist, and prolific songwriter, Angie Stone's first claim to fame was her membership in the Sequence, a pioneering hip-hop trio who arrived with "Funk You Up" (1979), the second release on Sugar Hill Records and the first rap single by an all-female group. Following a brief period with the post-new jack swing R&B act Vertical Hold, Stone began a fruitful and lasting solo career as one of neo-soul's leading lights, known for providing sharp insight into romantic relationships with her smoky yet upfront voice. She established her solo career with a pair of gold-certified albums, Black Diamond (1999) and Mahogany Soul (2001), and added to her accolades with Grammy nominations in the R&B field for "More Than a Woman" (2002), "U-Haul" (2004), and "Baby" (2007). Increasingly occupied with acting roles, she has continued to record every few years, exemplified by deeply soul-rooted LPs such as Rich Girl (2012), Dream (2015), and Full Circle (2019).
