Renowned soul and R&B singer Angie Stone tragically passed away at the age of 63 in a vehicle collision on Saturday morning. The news was confirmed by her longtime publicist. Stone, known for hits like “No More Rain (In This Cloud)” and “Wish I Didn’t Miss You,” had just performed in Mobile, Alabama, and was en route to Atlanta, Georgia with nine others when the accident occurred.
Stone, a native of Columbia, South Carolina, began her illustrious four-decade career in entertainment as a member of The Sequence, a pioneering female rap group. Transitioning to neo-soul and R&B music as a solo artist, she released albums such as “Black Diamond” and “Mahogany Soul,” earning critical acclaim and a dedicated fan base.
