Double Dose of Divas

Candi Staton Returns to Dance

If any of you were fans of Sex and the City (I wasn't, but please hold back the hate mail!), you will have remembered Candi Staton's single You've Got the Love from the series finale. The song, which I do like, was the perfect melancholy while at the same time upbeat ballad that could please the main fan base of the show.

Staton is an interesting artist, because she is primarily a gospel singer who every once in a while releases a dance/pop remix or track. This week, she teams up with Groove Armada on their new album "Sound Boy Rock" with vocals on two tracks, Paris and Love Sweet Sound. Click the album cover to preview (and then buy!) the track in iTunes.




Love sweet sound boasts some great mixes and relies heavily on Candi's edgy and soulful voice. The track current sits at 22 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart. Speaking of Charts...

Kristine W hits number one for the 11th time!

Congrats to one of my favorite Diva's Kristine W. This week, her latest single The Boss hits number one on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart. Need we remind you, Kristine has had 12 chart entries on that c
hart and 11 of them have reached number 1! I'll Be Your Light stalled at an impressive number 2.

The Boss isn't yet on iTunes, but check out the gorgeous new KristineW.com where you can purchase the tracks (digitally or physically) directly from Kristine herself!
