My favorite female r&b girl groups

There have been countless female r&b girl groups I’ve been fans of and so I’ve decided to pick my favorites from different decades to illustrate my wide range in tastes. From the 1960s, I pick the Supremes made up of three young girls from Detroit Michigan name Diane, Mary and Florence who epitomized the ultimate in girl groups and wore dazzling costumes and who racked up an astonishing 12 no.1 pop hits that will never be matched. From the 1970s, my favorite girl group would be the Emotions a female trio from Chicago who had beautiful harmonies and some of the biggest hits when they worked with Maurice White of Earth, Wind & Fire.

My favorite group from the 1980s career began in the 1970s but they peaked in the 1980s and it’s the Pointer Sisters who hail from Oakland and during the 80s racked up an impressive seven top 40s with my favorite among them being ‘Jump(For My Love)’ and my favorite group from the 1990s is En Vogue. Also from California like the Pointer Sisters, En Vogue came from San Francisco and had their first three singles hit no.1 on the Billboard R&B chart, arguably they are one of the last great female groups in R&B and as other came and went during the 1990s, they left the most lasting impression. Since then no female group exists in the 21st century and hasn’t been formed during this decade, it leaves a huge void and is part of the obvious problem that has crippled the music industry as it is today. There doesn’t seem to be any signs of any female groups that will come along in the foreseeable future so I’ll have my memories of all of the great ones that I’ve mentioned here and countless others I am a huge fan of to continue to enjoy their music.
