On this reflective Queue Points episode, Jay Ray and DJ Sir Daniel unpack the power of comebacks and second chances in Black music and culture. Delving into the stories of Tina Turner, Diana Ross, Mariah Carey, and Whitney Houston, the hosts explore why comeback stories resonate so deeply and what industry, societal, and personal factors shape the ability of artists to bounce back. With candid talk on ageism, cancel culture, double standards, and the unique grace (or lack thereof) extended to Black women artists, this episode challenges listeners to reconsider forgiveness, growth, and the lasting impact of musical legends.Topics Covered:Iconic comeback stories: Tina Turner, Diana Ross, Mariah Carey, Mary J.
