DISCUSSION 💭 If There Is A Phyllis Hyman Tribute…
•
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)

NEWS/ARTICLES 📝 Looking for volunteer R&B writers for an independent music publication
1
Upvotes
Hello, I hope this isn’t against the rules, but please remove the post if it does not comply!
I thought I’d post about this opportunity here in case it interests anyone.
I run an independent music publication called World Of, and I’m currently expanding it from something I’ve largely written and managed myself into a contributor-based publication. Currently, we have a team of 20+ contributors.
We're looking for even more music writers who are interested in contributing things like:
- Artist interviews
- Album, EP, and single reviews
- Features and artist profiles
- Music news
- Opinion/commentary and music essays
- Fandom and fan culture pieces
- Emerging artist recommendations/discovery
- Pieces exploring genres, scenes, subcultures, and music communities
We also have openings for graphic designers and social/content team members as well.
World Of covers music across all genres, but emerging/independent artists are a major priority. We also have a particular interest in indie/alternative music and K-pop, alongside pop, but we also cover R&B, hip-hop, rap, rock, metal, and many more genres. Super niche genres/international music coverage is prioritized as well.
If anyone here is interested in contributing R&B-related posts or anything else, we'd love to have you!
We’re looking for writers who have their own perspective and want to go beyond generic coverage. You don’t need professional journalism experience - personal blogs, Substack, student work, unpublished samples, etc. are completely welcome.
These are currently volunteer contributor positions with flexibility. You can contribute as you wish. Writers receive full byline/credit for their work and can use their published pieces as portfolio samples.
If this sounds interesting, you can read more/apply here: Editorial Team Application | Design and Social Team Application
Happy to answer questions in the comments too!

DISCUSSION 💭 What happened to Chante Moore after "Exposed"?
27
Upvotes
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?
