March is Women’s History Month and I had to take the time to make a playlist specifically for this month. Music is and has always been my sane place, my refuge, my place of solace. I can always find some genre to fit my mood…if I choose to wallow in it or if I want to uplift it. I may want a do right man, I may want to bust the windows out of his car or I may just want to express myself! Women have made their mark in music for decades and history has and will continue to be made by women in the music industry. Whether it was Aretha Franklin, Diana Ross, Dolly Pardon, Adele, Beyoncé, Whitney Houston, Lizzo or Billie Eilish…women will continue to be a force in the music industry!
