     Disciples of gospel / soul diva Ann Nesby will be pleased
to know that her next European single, "Hold On," is being
groomed with stormin' house grooves by the inexhaustible Mouse
T. Her glorious solo debut, "I'm Here For You" provides
tangible applause of recognition. Sad news on the Nesby front,
is that she will not be featured on the new Sounds of Blackness
album, due out in March. Powerhouse belter Jovetta Steel is
among the featured lead singers. Early previews prove that she
is well up to the task of the previous divas.

     So you are hankering to know what are some of the HOT new
releases will be in March...... let me tell you!!!! Hitster
Nancy Griffith ( the line dance bopper of Electric Slide ) has
a new album "Blue Roses From The Moon." Levert will release
"Whole Scenario," Jon Secada's new one is titled what else
"Secada." Dance Hall releases... Real McCoy, "One More Time,"
is gonna give it to you one more time. The much anticipated
release of Wild Orchid will be out this month also, album is
self titled. The movie to immortalize the life of singer
Selena will have a soundtrack out the end of the month. It has
some good tracks and new ones too.

     Questions: What is the hardest thing to do for drag?
TUCK! Some of us girls are gifted men and to hide the manhood
is a "trick" in itself! Where do you get your outfits? Honey
the same place all you "fishies" shop. Our clothes come off
the rack just like everyone else. Though we do make alot of
them ourselves, or know someone who does (Nancy, Jerry, RAM, to
name a few). Why do some "girls" wear nails and some don't?
That is a personal choice of the girls themselves. There is no
rule, except during contests.

Keep the questions cumming.........
