1st Lady was an R&B quartet from New York City that released three albums between 1998 and 2000. Their self-titled debut came out in 1998, followed by 'Every Woman Needs a Man' in 1999 and 'A Song for You' in 2000. Songs like 'Baby I Love You' and 'Missing You' were among their most popular tracks.
In 2000, two members, LaTavia Roberson and April Jones, were fired from the group, which led to public disputes and legal action. The remaining members brought in new vocalists to continue, but the lineup change became a notable part of their story.
Their music sometimes drew criticism from conservative groups who objected to the content. The group maintained a presence through their recordings, with songs such as 'Pass Me By' and 'Give You My Heart' reflecting their R&B style.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
