Donna Summer
Did you know that the real name of Donna Summer is LaDonna Adrian Gains? She made a name for herself in the music industry during the disco era. She made sure to stay on top of her game no matter what. She was also the first musician to have back-to-back albums that reached the US Billboard 200 Chart’s top spot. It has been a while since then, but we still love her songs!
Joni Mitchell
Has any other artist been this talented at blending various sounds? We doubt it. Joni Mitchell has experimented with folk, rock, pop, and jazz over the years. Her music is very poetic and infused with social commentary. Madonna once said, “I would have to say of all the women I’ve heard, she had the most profound effect on me from a lyrical point of view.”
