Thank you, @annkpowers and @NPR , for taking the time to tell my story well. It's clear to me that you know Love is a Song! ❤

Why Is Roberta Flack's Influence On Pop So Undervalued?

Roberta Flack is only solo artist to win two consecutive Record of the Year Grammys and she helped usher in an enduring style of R&B. Could she be pop music's most under-appreciated influence?
