Vesta Williams - 4U (Extended Mix)

[MrKevinism]

This song was "Fire" back in 1989 ! This was the album with "Congratulations" on it. She always reminded me of Chaka Khan.

This will be no other voice to come like Vesta....a true voice to be reckoned with...RIP my sista

[ElAye]

I was so hoping, but this jamm went unsung on Unsung. This was my favorite Vesta Jamm! RIP

Chaka Khan is her mentor - that's why you hear the similarities. Yet Vesta has her own thing going on too - no doubt. Fire-power vocals, funny, yeah. She's a great writer/producer/arranger too. Love me some CK, Vesta, Penny Ford, Meli'sa Morgan. They all sang back-up or background on CK projects & site her as their mentor.

I really miss this artist she was a special artist that need more than just a hug when she got depressed to loose weight I think she sounded like chaka khan and Angela winbush of that Era

[Nevadrama]

I remember dancing to this in Highschool. I loved R&B aa much as Rap

@ElAye I was thinking the same thing. I notice that Unsung is becoming more cookie cutter and vague with information just like VH1's Behind The Music after a few years. But, for the record, Vesta's first album was, indeed, a success. She got a bigger budget for the second album and good promotion. BUT, (and this is where Unsung confuses viewers), A&M did not pull the plug on the album--they, simply, did not put it on the Pop promotion roster.
