Famous for

A singer, a self-taught keyboardist, and a prolific songwriter, Angie Stone's first claim to fame was being the lead vocalist on


Vertical Hold's smooth urban dance track "Seems You're Much Too Busy." An R&B Top 40 hit during the summer of 1993, it eventually led to a solo career, and her debut album Black Diamond was issued in 1999 by Arista. In six years, Stone had definitely gained an old-school, autobiographical vibe, exemplified by her hit ballad "No More Rain (In This Cloud)," which has samples from Gladys Knight and the Pips' "Neither One of Us (Wants to Be the First to Say Goodbye)." Contributors included Lenny Kravitz and former Tribe Called Quest member Ali Shaheed Muhammad as producers, and Stone's ex-boyfriend D'Angelo as a vocal guest on "Everyday."
