My Interview w/Karyn White and The Soul Train Awards Controversy

Commentary | Entertainment

In 2012, I had the pleasure to interview R&B singer, Karyn White! The article, which I titled, "Karyn White: The Rebirth", was selected to appear on the cover of the magazine and was published in digital and print! It was such an honor to interview her and I found her to be such a sweet person who just wanted to get back to doing what she loves...her music! At the time, Karyn was just getting back into the music scene as an independent artist and had released her new album, "Carpe Diem", which she released on her own label. During the interview, she explained how she was passed over by Babyface and others in the industry when she decided to start a family.

I saw the video shared by the artist regarding her take on the "Superwoman" song controversy surrounding her absence on the 2015 Soul Train Awards. I have to say that I agree with everything she said! I am not surprised that she was once again overlooked to sing the song during the awards ceremony, which was sung instead by Fantasia as a tribute to Babyface. Although he did write the song, I agree that Karyn made it a hit with her beautiful soulful voice! In her true classy fashion, she gave props to the young artist, but insists that she wasn't even contacted or considered for the project. Despite the apparent shade, Karyn is and will always be one of best R&B singers of all time!
