In this lively episode of Queue Points, hosts Jay Ray and DJ Sir Daniel explore the fascinating rise, legacy, and challenges of girl groups in Black music. Prompted by the near absence of mainstream girl groups today, they unpack the musical magic and drama behind trios like The Supremes, TLC, Destiny’s Child, and more.
