Someone said George Duke. Yes to that along with Rashaan Patterson and Tamia.

I thought Tamia had one but maybe I'm wrong.

I cant remember if any of these have already had one:

Foxy Brown
Another Bad Creation
Stephanie Mills (eventhough shes turned it down)
Natalie Cole
Anita Baker
Commissioned (gospel group)

The 5th Dimension (pretty much forgotten because they did pop music in the 60s and 70s and had little R&B following)
En Vogue (should probably have an extended documentary)
Another Bad Creation (one of the first success story of the Atlanta music scene)
Eric Gable (had an ok career: #1 R&B song with a few minor hits and a 3 album, but virtually forgetten)
Color Me Badd
Eternal (only on US hit; idk how Unsung should deal with non-US act)
Mica Paris
Loose Ends
Lisa Stansfield

I would love a Lisa Stansfield episode! I don’t know a thing about her origin story.

I agree with a lot that were almost mentioned.... I must add DJ Rogers and Enchantment because their songs came up when I was listening to some other older artists and I was more familiar with DJ Rogers, Jr than his father, who passed in 2020....

I'm gonna throw C+C Music Factory into the ring. I think the way Zelma Davis was caught in the crossfire should be brought to light more.

For the longest people didn't know the model was placed there was not the real singer. Marsha Wash touched on this in her Unsung, and if I am not mistaken they went as far as to film her, she thought she was going to be in the music video

...but then she saw the premiere and saw the model instead of her

They did her dirty for years

Yeah but Zelma (the "model") could actually sing herself and sung on their other songs her and Martha actually led together on Do You Wanna Get Funky
