Angie Stone, the award-nominated R&B singer behind classics like “Wish I Didn’t Miss You” and “No More Rain (In This Cloud),” sadly passed away at 63. The crash occurred early Saturday morning following a concert in Montgomery, Alabama, when she was riding as a passenger in a van that crashed. Stone was riding with nine others in the van; she alone died.

Born in Columbia, South Carolina, Stone rose to prominence in the late 1970s as a member of The Sequence, one of the earliest female hip-hop groups. Their hit single “Funk You Up” in 1979 was celebrated as one of the earliest rap songs sung by women.

Turning to a solo career in the 1990s, her debut album “Black Diamond” (1999) became Gold, featuring the hit single “No More Rain (In This Cloud).” Her 2001 album “Mahogany Soul” featured the hit single “Wish I Didn’t Miss You,” which solidified her position in the neo-soul genre.
