Black female singers have taken the industry by storm since the inception of the music industry. From the Blues to Jazz to R&B the riffs, scats, octaves and emotion black women have mastered over the decades have without a doubt played an integral part in the music industry it’s rich history. Like “Soul Food” we have, or at least HAD a plethora of Soul Music to choose from. Black female singers were there during the highs and the lows of our community from the ins and outs of love to through the Civil Rights movement. If we were to close the music history books today and list the best black female singers of all time is this list complete? Absolutely not, you would literally have to write a book on all the great black women in music, but these are our choices in who we think the top ones are. Do you Agree or disagree?
