My Take
Winbush earns my deep respect as an artist who controlled both sides of the glass. From St. Louis, she colored 1980s R&B with the duo Rene & Angela and kept scoring as a solo act, but the part that thrills me is that she wrote and produced her own material. In an era when women rarely held the production reins, she gripped them from the start, and that nerve shows in the music. Selling over ten million records is impressive, yet her real legacy is artistic self-determination. I count her among the quiet architects of soul's golden run.
