2829641, What Female Artist have you listen to the most in your lifetime?
Posted by mistermaxxx08, Tue Aug-06-13 06:22 PM
it could be your own liking or because somebody in your family played it all the time or a family friend that played the records all the time period.
like today i was thinking i have listened to Diana Ross records the most though IMO I dig Aretha Franklin,Gladys Knight and Whitney Houston more, though Diana ROss in a Mount rushmore Female Artist.
this is about Female Artists.

2829644, Sade, hands down
Posted by ramaj1, Tue Aug-06-13 06:26 PM
Both my parents--my casual music fan mother and DJ dad alike--were big fans.
Come 7th grade, I played my mom's Best of Sade CD and been hooked ever since.
She, Meshell and Badu are my 'holy trinity' of female artists.

probably most recently Erykah.
..but also Nina Simone, Aretha, etc.
If anyone is so interested, there's a sorta indie folk/rock artist named Kristin Hersh, who is pretty great. She is kinda an acquired taste....she is diagnosed as bipolar. Her live shows are actually really (intentionally) funny...and she can be a really intense performer.

2829872, Diana Ross
Posted by c71, Wed Aug-07-13 11:42 AM
I have been listening to a lot of oldies radio for a while so she would probably be the one, especially since she has had hits from the mid-70's to mid-80's that I heard a lot then (I know she has had hits from before the mid-70's but I was too little in 71-74).
