1958 - W.C. Handy, composer and musician, joins the ancestors at the age of
84 in New York City.
1959 - Kenneth Edmonds is born in Indianapolis, Indiana. He will become a
professional musician and will begin work in the business producing
music, with his friend Antonio Reid, for Carrie Lucas, the
Whispers, and Dynasty. Since then, they've produced hits for many
others. During the 1990s, his dominance will extend beyond the
production arena and into the performing circle. His hit "Tender
Lover" crossed him over into pop territory and eventually sold more
than two million copies. The singles "Whip Appeal" and "It's No
Crime" were Top Ten R&B and pop hits. He will hit his peak in 1995,
producing hits for artists like Boyz II Men, Madonna and Whitney
Houston and coordinated the "Waiting to Exhale" soundtrack. In the
fall of 1996, he will released "Day," his first solo album since
1993 to strong reviews. He will successfully produce the film "Soul
Food" in 1997.
