musical muse she's someone that I had
studied when I was younger and had the
opportunity to be labelmates with her
for a while is that right yeah so she
was signed it was it like for you oh my
god it was like a dream come true she's
a legend yeah I've got such a powerful
voice as well but to kind of share the
label that's inch'allah yeah and and we
ended up meeting at an old jazz
recording session and she invited me
back to her dressing room and she gave
me her phone number and it just was the
beginning of a beautiful big sister
little sister relationship for years to
come that's wonderful we lost her but
you're honoring her on Friday night why
this kind of tribute for Phyllis Hyman
you know it's something that I've been
toting around to do for many years but
you know I've had some hesitations
because you know the reality is is that
they'll never be another Phyllis I know
she was you know just the artists
magical artist in her own right so I
wanted to definitely revisit this music
because she was just such an iconic
figure I think for so many she heard
music just lives in the hearts of so
many people and I thought this was a
good time just to kind of be able to do
something to close our eyes and remember
just the warmth and the beauty and the
power majesty of her gift that's really
well said that's a great reason to come
out Friday to this show let's get the
