That was a tough category that year & how bout that Little Richard upstaging Buster Poindexter & shit lol. But damn Swing Out Sister, Terence Trent Darby, The Cutting Crew, The Breakfast Club featuring (Mr. I live for you Stephen Bray) & Jody (Hot-ly) Watly what a damn talented year...

@E139486 Good point. There are a few "divas" that lasted for several decades: Madonna, Chaka Khan, Gladys Knight and even Aretha Franklin at 68 years old! But it seems that longevity is hard to come by is this business. If Jody and Jeffrey regrouped with Howard, I'm sure they could have a successful tour.

Swing out sister was jamming too
-
@womanlybassplayer Yeah, but very few stay relevant. Mariah is one of them. I'm sure she'll still be a "diva" at 50. She did have a run, though. She shoulda regrouped with Howard Hewitt and the other guy.

@E139486 I feel you....But that was 24 years ago and she is in her 50's now. Music has changed and younger artist have long taken over. But, she had a good run.

-
She was in a group called Shalamar then went solo a blew up!
-

Fuckin Little Richard....I hate people having to upstage other people's big night. He wasted 3 minutes of everyone's time.
