Radio Facts: The Unsung series is some of the best-produced TV on Black music in the history of the music. TV One has struck gold with this show for several seasons. But these are some of the best shows to date.
UNSUNG is along the same line as Soul Train in the sense that a MUCH NEEDED and much-deserved series dedicated to the amazing accomplishments of black music would absolutely never get the exposure it deserves if it were not for a show like this. Hard to believe that Soul Train premiered 40 years ago and 40 years later there is STILL a lack of diversified black programming on the networks. While I may not agree with everything Radio One does, Cathy Hughes and Alfred Liggins get a HUGE thumbs up for TV One. I have no doubt this network has amazing potential starting with their biggest hit show UNSUNG. I cannot tell you how many emails we get about the show and how much people love the show and the reviews that we do. I was not aware that Al B Sure was the original voice-over person for the first season of UNSUNG. Not sure if you will agree on our favorites .. but we thought there are the 10 Best Ones so far… Here goes…
I love unsung. However, some of the 80’s artist/ groups are weak. I would love to see the pointer sisters. The 70’s have a more diversity style of sound.
Sorry the Spinners, Shalamar and the ones from kid and play movies…
You know the ones that brought out lisa lisa and cult jam they all should have made this list
