My Take
Karyn White deserves more credit than nostalgia usually grants her. At the turn of the 1990s she delivered some of the era's defining R&B, and "Romantic" topping the Hot 100 was no small feat. What resonates with me is the strong, self-possessed woman she projected in songs like "Superwoman", an attitude that still feels modern. That she later moved into design tells me she values reinvention over coasting on past hits. Her supple, expressive voice is one I find myself returning to whenever I revisit that golden stretch of soul.
