My Take
Stephanie Mills is proof that a voice can be a whole career. Landing Dorothy in the Tony-sweeping Broadway run of The Wiz at seventeen, then turning the show's ballad Home into a number-one R&B signature, she built her legacy on sheer vocal power rather than spectacle. What I admire most is her restlessness: a singer who also stepped behind the camera as a director refuses to be boxed in. Decades on, she still speaks to fans directly online, and that staying power tells me her gift was never about a moment but about a genuinely durable, hard-won instrument.
