UNSUNG HEROES OF SOUL #Disco

Leon Haywood's signature hit, "I Want'a Do Something Freaky to You," has been sampled by a number of rappers, most notably Dr. Dre on his 1992 smash, "Nuthin' But a 'G' Thang."

Known as "Motown's best-kept secret," the Originals provided uncredited backing vocals on numerous hits--including "What Becomes of the Broken Hearted," "A Place in the Sun," and "25 Miles"--before they recorded a smash of their own.

Peaches & Herb are best remembered for their 1979 smash, “Reunited,” but their early hits predated it by twelve years.

Candi Staton is a four-time Grammy nominee who has recorded in the Southern soul, disco, and gospel genres.
