Music Break

Day 16 of African-American Music Appreciation month and its time to pay homage to the female trailblazers.

How? With a good-spirited faceoff!


African American culture has been ridden with controversy and faceoffs since the beginning of time (ok maybe not the beginning but you get my point). Further, black women have been pitted against each other for quite some time. There is something alluring about the idea that "there can only be one queen" and it has been at the center of publicity stunts and sideways comments.

Aretha Franklin v. Patti Labelle
Tyra vs. Naomi
Beyonce v. Rihanna
Current v former members of Destiny's child

Allow us to indulge in our own faceoff: Who is the best female vocal group of all time??

Check the nominees after the jump.

In no particular order, the contestants are:

Xscape



SWV




TLC




En Vogue


Destiny's Child
