Soul singer Angie Stone dies in a car crash at 63
Briefly

Angie Stone, the iconic singer behind hits like 'Wish I Didn't Miss You,' tragically passed away at 63 following a car accident in Montgomery, Alabama. She was the sole casualty, returning home from a performance. Notably a founding member of the 70s hip-hop trio The Sequence, Stone's pioneering work paved the way for female rappers. Her prolific career spanned decades, including collaborations with D'Angelo and releases like 'Black Diamond' and 'Mahogany Soul,' highlighting her significant contributions to music and her influence as a songwriter.
I think that being the first female rap group to actually come out and have an authentic original rap record is an accomplishment that no one else has been able to top.
There is a deep sad feeling that as a songwriter something such a gift you never expect it to be taken away.
