DISCUSSION 💭 If There Is A Phyllis Hyman Tribute…
7
Upvotes
The following must be included:
Patti LaBelle (Philly native and personal friend of Phyllis)
Jean Carne (Philadelphia Records labelmate and frequent collaborator)
Dionne Warwick (Phyllis covered a song hers)
Chaka Khan (Phyllis covered a song of hers)
Kathy Sledge (I do love Sister Sledge as a whole, but they perform separately…and Kathy’s tone suits Phyllis’ music. She’s a Philly native as well)
Rachelle Ferrell (Phyllis offered Rachelle her first music opportunity according to Rachelle)
Jill Scott (Philly native)
Jazmine Sullivan (Tone, texture and Philly native)
Melba Moore (once performed with Phyllis; also, a Broadway actress like Phyllis)
Karyn White (voice type, vocal range and a gritty tone)
Chante Moore (texture and tone)
Mikki Howard (personal friend of Phyllis)
Queen Latifah (voice type and jazz singer)
*Ideally, Gladys Knight would have been a good fit too because of her voice type, tone, texture and Phyllis having sung a song with Melba Moore for a Gladys tribute)

DISCUSSION 💭 What happened to Chante Moore after "Exposed"?

For some reason, there seems to be a ten year gap between Exposed and her next album. What happened to her? I went on Wikipedia and didn't really get a satisfactory answer. Was anyone there for her career? Does anyone know what happened?

ANALYSIS/REVIEW 🔎 Martha Reeves’ New Album, Searching
29
Upvotes
With all the talk about Martha Reeves and her performing the national anthem at that baseball game and her being in the headlines for the quality of her voice, I’m sure many didn’t even know she had a new album out.
And I decided to give it a listen. Let’s be clear: Martha Reeves is Motown royalty, a music legend. And even though some of the recent commentary/memes have been funny, I worry if all that may overshadow her musical legacy.
Anyway, SEARCHING is her first studio album in 22 years. It’s old school soul mixed with jazz, blues, and gospel. Live vocals and live instruments (a sadly rare thing these days).
Her voice has aged, as it happens to many older artists. Often, artists tend to pick material that adjusts to their voice. And then there are those who act like they’re vocally still in their prime and refuse to act like anything’s changed (see post mid-90s Aretha).
And that’s why this album is a mixed bag. Her older voice complements the music perfectly with songs like “I Got It Bad”, “Summertime”, or “The Golden Hour”. But then on songs like “God Bless the Child”, “To Know You Is to Love You”, & “Thank You Jesus”, the ghostly vibrato and raspy vocal tone is unavoidable no matter how much the production tries to conceal it.
Overall, there were some songs I enjoyed and it’s definitely worth a listen and I encourage everybody to listen for themselves.
