Featured in TIR Episode 316 (Part 1 of 2; see Part 2 here: • "TRUTH IN RHYTHM" - St... ): R&B singer Stacy Lattisaw Jackson. Just 12 years old when her debut album came out in 1979, during the next 10 years she would go on to record nine more LPs, with four reaching the R&B Top 20. During that highly successful period - often working with producer Narada Michael Walden - she notched a dozen Top 15 R&B hits that included “Love on a Two Way Street,” “Let Me Be Your Angel,” “Nail It to the Wall” and the Johnny Gill duets “Perfect Combination” and “Where Do We Go From Here.”
Retiring from popular music while still in her early 20s, she turned her life’s focus toward family, church and spirituality - authoring her autobiography in 2011, called “I Am Not the Same Girl: Renewed.”

Stacy lattisaw is one of the greatest female vocalist ever.respect and appreciate her. she got a powerful story to tell. great interview
It's so wonderful to see Stacy happy and in a great place in her life. I played in her live band in '81 and her voice was amazing beyond her years. No autotune, pure God given talent. I pray for continued blessings for her and her family.
Narada Michael Walden Did A Great Job With Stacy. He Knew Her Sound. Once That Producer Connects With The Singer, The Creativity Begins.She Looks Good And Happy. Not Living For Showbusiness. Awesome Show Dr. GX. You Care!
I once read that Stacy Lattisaw was his first Production credit. He told the record company he wanted to produce. They responded by offering him a side on Stacy’s second album.
Her albums Personal Attention & What You Need are absolute gems. They were successful but deserved a bigger push and more airplay.

Stacy it is great to see and hear from you again. You're one of the great musical talents ever. Right up there with other well known D.C. musical natives like Marvin Gaye, Mya, Gil Scott Heron, Chuck Brown, and Duke Ellington. That single "Let Me Be Your Angel" is so legendary.
Stacy Lattisaw has a beautiful voice. I grew up in Washington, DC and it was a really big deal when Stacy's debut album came out. DC was so proud of her. I loved Stacy's album Let Me Be Your Angel. Childhood memories! I'm happy to see that Stacy is doing well. ❤
Love you Stacy! WE call you the Princess of Soul and RnB!
Wow, looking forward to this, always loved Stacy, and she has a great story if you saw her Unsung feature, she’s been so blessed in her life! Still listen to her classic music all the time!

I love Stacy Lattisaw's voice .Let me be your Angel ,Don't throw it all away & Let me take you down are my favorite songs by Stacy Lattisaw 😊
I had a deep crush on this lady in 1981!!! And she still beautiful, wow!!!!
i saw that show...her opening up for the Jacksons...in Largo md..place called the Capitol center. she was definitely not ready for that exposure...you could tell she was not comfortable on stage. we maybe related...my uncle was a lattisaw Living in DC!
"Don't Throw It All Away"
"I Could Love You So Divine"
"Million Dollar Baby"
Just a Few of My Favorites
And “ Every Drop Of Your Love” , “ Can’t Stop Thinking About You “ , Perfect Combination “ , Baby It’s You”, “ Dynamite “ , and “ Miracle”
A wonderful talent who’s music has yet to receive both the recognition and attention that it deserved.
I was telling a friend the other day. we both are old school musicians/generation ex-ers. too much technology, bad music, and very little talent. killed the music business. music was NEVER meant to be played with machines, but real musicians, arranged by TOP arrangers, and produced by Top/good music producers. in a REAL recording studio. the youngsters today get a beat machine or a computer. and the really believe they are real musicians. making beats in their bedroom.
Stacy was a GREAT talent in her prime...my baby is another singer, Tracie Spencer. can you see if you can do an interview with her.
Will look into, thanks for asking.
Scott, she had them songs, Block Party was a tight joint Narada hooked up for her. That Personal Attention album was half produced by Brownmark. I would imagine you mentioned this maybe in part 2 about her being in that King Dream Chorus that sang King Holiday which was instrumental in getting Dr. King's Holiday a national Holiday in 1986. Big respect to her for not compromising her morals to make quick buck.
Scott - you are awesome. Your Prince interviews brought me to your station, and your sit-down with legendary artists like Stacy is what keeps me here. You know your music. You are a true gentleman and you know your funk!
I think the industry didn’t want her to grow up. But she had some great adult R&B.
"Come On And Feel My Love" And Dynamite! Awesome Club Jams Back In The Day. Very Nice To Mention The Master, "Van McCoy". Underrated Producer On Many Levels. But, Narada Michael Walden Gave Her The Stacy Sound. Those Two. Perfect!
Stacy was an inspiration to me growing up.
I may be wrong, but Stacy is probably the 1st female child R&B/Soul singer superstar who paved the way for others like her. Mirah Carey was inspired by Stacy and Tina Knowles (Beyonce's mother) shared a story of how Stacy's amazing talent challenged and inspired Beyonce. Hopefully BET or NAACP shine light on her contribution to the culture! Let's give this sister who just due already!
Love this channel. The only place to go to see my childhood idols. To add a great host.!!!!! Another GREAT SHOW SCOTT!!!!!!
Dr Gx you are really bringing out the true legends to interview. Stacy is such a talent, it's so good to see her 💎🌊💙
She's 1000% percent on that.
a true icon.
My boo
I believe Narada was signed to Atlantic as a solo artist at the time. He had a string of hits in the late 70s/80s.
I saw her in a tour opening for LTD (or Cameo) or others. In those days Stacy Lattisaw or Evelyn Champagne King were frequent opening acts on funk tours.
Van McCoy had written and produced The Jacksons & The Sylvers. He was a logical choice. Narada’s success with Stacy propelled him into elite producer status.
at 30:52, that was the Queen of Soul.
Awesome talented beautiful sister but yes the Caribbeans do the weed pot getting high pot plants talking about yeah mond
The only good thing for some artists that come out of the music business is the music , but so many artists are never paid for all their hard work, the producers, record labels and managers own the music and rights to artists name , so they sit back for years and collect money. And most of the time theirs no one in the music industry that has artist’s back the way sports stars and actors have . That’s why I always have said that I love music but I hate the music industry…
It's a cut throat business
he is way underrated period...
she is dynamite
I'm sorry I disagree with her. I respect her but this Kumbayah my lord mnet she was hoping for or still hoping for is not there like that. I love great music. But, you alos can't be naive to the facts. From the time she entered the business. Prince was already on the market. Ashift had taken place back then when she came on the scene. Hip Hop was still finding its legs. So by the time lets sa Purple Rain hit. The women in Prince's videos were mostly salacious looking. I guess the industry took on that look and approach at the time. So if you coming in with religious views and things like that. I guess the industry wasn't for her. She has a great voice but, maybe that is all it was. I respect her choice to leave the industry. But, its not the industry is an individual thing. You know what to stay away from. Lik she said, it neer was for her. Some reat songs but, no one really remembers her, except the few people in radio that plays her earlier hits.
I respectfully disagree, I mean , she had great role models like Natalie and Aretha in an era where people were respected for their singing voice not their sexy image , I don’t think she was necessarily naive by the time she hit in her late teens and twenties, but from what it sounds like by the time she was in her 20’s she wanted to have more power and do things her way, remember she was only 14 when she started, who would’ve been naive to the business by then. And she spent most of those years not having to try to be sexy until the late 80’s and early 90’s , sounds like if she could’ve did things her way she would’ve continued to make music .
Jump to the beat is a MASTERPIECE!!!!!!
