Yonkers' Queen of Hip-Hop Soul. 'What's the 411?' (1992 — produced by Diddy at Uptown Records, basically invented the hip-hop-and-R&B fusion as a commercial format), 'My Life' (1994 — one of the most autobiographically painful albums ever released by a pop artist), 'Share My World,' 'No More Drama,' 'The Breakthrough.' Nine Grammys. The 2022 Super Bowl halftime show. The artist who fused 90s hip-hop production with church-grade R&B vocals and let it stay messy on purpose. Foundational figure.
