My Take
Siedah Garrett is the kind of artist I instinctively root for, the craftsperson behind the hits rather than the face on the poster. From Los Angeles, she sang alongside Michael Jackson and wrote for Quincy Jones, Madonna, and countless others. The music industry tends to bury the people who actually build its melodies, so I find real value in spotlighting someone whose fingerprints are on songs the whole world hums. Three decades of trust at the highest level is no accident. To me she represents quiet, durable excellence, and that deserves far more recognition than it usually gets.
